[Phoenix IAS By Nitin Shriwas @phoenixiasbyNS]

I won't name the UPSC faculty with whom I worked closely but the person is so vile for students who avail reservations; Buddhists; muslims. The person doesn't mind earning money from them but doesn't want them to be selected. That's the secret wish of that person. Since I got to realise such thinking,I never approached that person

[NS Ramnath @rmnth]

Brilliant.

Listening to this it struck me that most of us know nothing about the things that really matter. And those who think they know something because they’ve read a few books know even less.

In 1831, an enslaved Black man killed 55 White masters and that started a freedom revolution against Slavery. In India, when Dalits did the same to Zamindars through 90s, we know what the govts branded them as. A civilisation went by without imagining justice in its consciousness

IMO, Sri Krishnadevaraya is not even in the top 3 when it comes to Kannadiga Emperors.

The top 3 spots:

1. Immadi Pulikeshi
2. Amoghavarsha Nrupatunga
3. Veera Ballala III/Vikramaditya VI

This is the list of Emperors.

We shall debate about kings on another day.

We cannot talk about birds without talking about their habitat.

if the Eurasian Hoopoe is declining today, that's also because we have lesser open areas with long grass, and too many chemicals.

Allow grassy areas to grow. Stop concretisation everywhere. use less chemicals.

Meet Professor Gali Madhvi Latha
Professor Civil Engineering at IISC Bangalore.
She spent 17 years along with her team to make Chenab river railway bridge a reality and a testament of India's rise.

[Neha Sinha @nehaa_sinha]

Thank you for your service, Valmik.

[Neha Sinha @nehaa_sinha]

We remember Valmik Thapar, who dedicated his life to Indian tigers.

See the first few lines of the remembrance and meet the tiger’s “liquid fire”.

Rest in Peace, Valmik Thapar, the international voice of Indian tigers for many many years.

As a tribute to him, do read the many books he penned on tigers: ‘Tiger Fire’, ‘Living with Tigers’ and others.

[Jairam Ramesh @Jairam_Ramesh]

Valmik Thapar, a legendary figure in the world of conservation over the past four decades - especially tigers - has just passed away. It is a great loss.

Today's Ranthambore, particularly, is a testimony to his deep commitment and indefatigable zeal. He was uncommonly knowledgeable on a variety of issues relating to biodiversity and not a day passed during my Ministerial tenure without our talking to each other - with me almost always at the receiving end. During my tenure as Chairman of the Standing Committee also he was a constant source of many valuable suggestions and advice. We had arguments but it was always an education to listen to him, full of passion and concern.

He was truly an unforgettable one of a kind

The forest is a place which drips with meaning and generosity. The future is in taking the high road—through caution, through calculation, and through the woods we must protect.
