I often think of my Mum’s pharmacy.

Today’s AI tools would have made stock-keeping, accounting and medicine delivery quicker and less of a burden.

Too many small businesses are still not using AI. We can’t let them be left behind.

Wildlife biologist and conservationist Purnima Devi Barman has described the recognition of her conservation efforts by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as an acknowledgment of community-led environmental action and grassroots participation in wildlife protection.

Speaking on the conservation of the Greater Adjutant Stork, locally known as the Hargila, Barman said the initiative has been driven through close collaboration with local communities and women’s groups under the banner of the “Hargila Army”.

According to Barman, more than 20,000 women have joined the movement and pledged support towards protecting the bird species, which has historically faced neglect and social stigma.

Expressing gratitude over the Prime Minister’s mention of the initiative, she said the recognition represents the collective efforts of communities that have worked towards conserving biodiversity through awareness and participation.
