Hi! I spent the last 13 months writing stories across India's west coast - from port development and fish famine to chemical pollution to water scarcity to diversion - with the underlying theme of prioritization of corporate interests over communities and water ecosystems.#THREAD

Failing to understand the allegation here. No one should criticise coal in India?! Didn't Central Electricity Authority call for closure of old thermal plants! Litigation is meant to be a tool. That is by design. Why not make counter arguments during hearing? Why FCRA route?

Ritwick Dutta is absolutely incredible. For years, he's been the strongest defender of India's ecological security & those dependent on it, both wildlife and people, in our courts of law. The govt is gravely mistaken if they think they can deter him by such intimidation tactics.

In the #Bengal #Delta, every #pond, or pukur, has stories to tell — of waterbirds and #wetland plants, of family memory, colonialist history, and #climatechange. My piece on ponds, #partition, and placemaking has been published in Places Journal. placesjournal.org/article/ponds-…
