Infian Thick-knee - With its striking yellow eyes and streaky brown plumage, this large, unusual shorebird is a true master of camouflage. By day, it stays hidden under shady vegetation—but come dusk, it comes alive. A bird of the night, perfectly adapted to the quiet wild.
On the occasion of the 137th Foundation Day of the Botanical Survey of India, I extend my warm greetings and best wishes to all scientists, officers, staff, research scholars, post-doctorate fellows, outsourced employees and well-wishers of the organization. For more than a century, the BSI has remained at the forefront of exploring, documenting, and conserving the rich plant diversity of our nation.
Our scientists, botanists, and field staff have tirelessly worked in some of the most challenging terrains—from the mighty Himalayas to the depths of dense forests where sunlight scarcely reaches, and across the slippery slopes of the Western Ghats where new species continue to bloom. Their dedication and perseverance have helped unveil many of nature’s hidden treasures.
Our journey to discover and document India’s unique plant diversity will never cease, for biodiversity continues to surprise us with new forms of life. The work of the Botanical Survey of India is vital in deepening our understanding of the country’s natural heritage and strengthening conservation efforts for a sustainable future.
Together, let us continue to make the Botanical Survey of India a global leader in plant science and biodiversity research and a proud institution of Atamnirbhar Bharat.
