The Sariska Tiger Relocation Project
September 2004: A painstaking combing exercise in Sariska Tiger Reserve, Rajasthan, revealed that there were no tigers left. All the tigers were poached out of existence.
Total wipe out of tigers from the famed Sariska Tiger reserve was a national embarrassment. The nation witnessed the furore of wildlife activists, nature lovers and conservationists like never before. Sad but true – that we required an event of this kind for all to wake up and take notice of the fact that tigers are not safe, anywhere, anymore. Read the rest of this entry »

Sky Harvest - An Ode to the Clouds

Culminating into willowy streams,
Feathery blues, such peaceful solitude,
In acres binding forgotten clues;

World Environment Day Today
Today is World Environment Day. A day set aside by the United Nations to sway non existent emotions or just nudge plain reason to ponder on the state of the living planet.
The slogan this year - CO2, Kick the Habit! Towards a Low Carbon Economy. Apt almost to a fault. Its a no brainer that Carbon footprints have to be erased for creating a smoother pathway to an eco-friendly approach to life. Read the rest of this entry »

The Nearing - Spirit of the Forest
The voice:
That I heard so many years ago,
From the distant lakes,
Near the forests pure.
