So many calls about China, about what that means for India, about XBB, about 3rd waves, about new mandates, about travel bans, about vaccine boosters- thought best to get views out to summarise the current situation. Long thread, be warned 🙂 1/n

Excellent thread by Omair Ahmad The Third Pole's Managing Editor on why the science on the Himalayas as an immensely fragile and disaster prone landscape due to climate change and rampant infrastructure development has been clear for a longtime. #himalayas #climatechange #disasters

I had a fantastic time with Nirjan Rai Policy Entrepreneurs Inc in Kathmandu last month talking about India's global ambitions, #G20 #China #IndoPacific and the implications of #South Asia and #regionalcooperation! Do check out the podcast and follow Policy Entrepreneurs Inc for some amazing conversations

Probably one of the saddest days for Indian sport when Olympic medal winners are sitting in protest at Jantar Mantar complaining of alleged sexual exploitation by wrestling bosses

Fantastic chat with Nirjan Rai at Policy Entrepreneurs Inc about India, the geopolitics of South Asia and the Indo-Pacific, India's regional and global ambitions and the implications of India's G20 presidency. Tune in if you havent yet! #India #China #Nepal #Southasia #G20 #IndoPacific

Looks like we have a very cruel summer to look forward too...🌡️🥵

Looking forward to participating in this important conversation on Monday 27 March & sharing insights from The Asia Foundation's latest GovAsia publication on Civic Spaces in South Asia! Do tune in #S4D #P4D #civicspace

With summer upon us, a fantastic read out by my friend and colleague Aditya Valiathan Pillai on a new report assessing India's #heatactionplans. Must read!

#Women need a say on transboundary #rivers | The Third Pole ⁦Anamika Barua⁩ ⁦CUTS CITEE⁩ ⁦Mandakini D. Surie⁩ thethirdpole.net/en/regional-co…

A day well spent in discussions on #inland navigation in the Brahmaputra basin with CUTS CITEE Anamika Barua Sumit Vij Joydeep Gupta Partha Jyoti Das Mandakini Kaul IIT Guwahati. Spoke on gender, equity and inclusion in dialogue, design and implementation processes.

After a cool March & early April, temperatures in Delhi are rising. The Delhi Govt. has issued heat wave advisories to schools. Must listen to my dear friend Aditya Valiathan Pillai podcast with G Sampath The Hindu on extreme heat, the wet bulb phenomenon and India's heat plans.

Delhi is under water. Unlike previous floods when floodwaters affected poor people living along the #Yamuna, this time posh colonies are marooned too. Water treatment plants shut. @yamunajiye ji had kept warning against destroying the river's floodplains. gaonconnection.com/lead-stories/o…

The #GigWorkers social security legislation recently passed by #Rajasthan State Assembly, is a modest, but important breakthrough. Many struggles ahead, but this law wins new rights for workers in a "gig" economy. Do watch, discuss, & spread the word youtube.com/watch?v=56PYXF…
