Protest site against Adani’s coal mines in the Hasdeo Arand forest burned down at 2 am this morning, activists and Adivasi leaders allege Adani-state conspiracy to end the 2 year-long protests, say their decade-long movement will not be deterred.
It’s been more than 750 days of protest to save the Hasdeo forest.
When they could not stop the people movement, the company burned down the protest site late at night.
Such a cowardly act!

BEGINNING OF DAY 16 OF #CLIMATEFAST
120 people sleeping outdoors under clear skies. Temperature: - 8 °C
16 days of just water n salts is finally taking a toll. Feeling quite week. But I can still drag for another 25 days n perhaps will.
I'm sure our path of truth will win eventually.
In Anna Hazare's case Parliament unanimously passed the Lokpal Bill by the 13th day of his fast. Mahatma Gandhi had to sit for 21 days.
Let's see how long ours takes...!
We shall overcome some... day.

At 2023 #SketchersWalkathon I ranked 4/705 women, 19/1752 overall in 10k. At age 52 yrs! Since there are no age categories I was denied a podium. How is any athletic competition fair where a 52yr old competes against a 20yr old? Have under 40/Over 40 categories #BeFair #RahulVira

“No one’s listening”
That defines this illegal regime today on issues that matter to people.
Where builder and contractor friends of the corrupt regime completely dictate the policies of the corrupt and illegal regime, this will be the state of our cities.
The Mumbai Climate Action Plan, made by us, along with global climate action experts lies untouched and unused by this illegal regime.
This is a first of its kind effort by a state government. Congratulations to @supriyasahuias and the TN Green Climate Company to organise a workshop for all MLAs on #ClimateCrisis and #ClimateAction @SundarrajanG
We are looking forward to a workshop cum training session organised by the TN Green Climate Company's Climate Change Mission with members of the Legislative Assembly today at Chennai. We plan to discuss Adaptation and mitigation measures, plastic pollution, Meendum Manjapai campaign, local impact of climate change and the important role MLAs can play in handling Climate Change #TNClimateMission #Climateaction #climatechange #TNGCC

6.2 inches of rain fell in one hour today in Hong Kong causing severe flooding.
It has been an awful week of flooding around the world in Greece, Turkey, Spain, Italy, China and Brazil killing dozens.

What a glorious moment for Indian sport. If there’s one video you must watch today, it’s this. The disbelief in the commentators voice at 2.28 mins… "Is that India") 😇
