Avalanche in Sonamarg

The recent deaths of 66 children in The Gambia have been linked to their consumption of four brands of imported Indian cough syrup, which the World Health Organization has said were contaminated and substandard. Are spurious and substandard drugs widely available in India? How worried should we as consumers be about the drugs we buy, and how do we check whether these are safe? We asked Dr Rajeev Jayadevan and Nakul Pasricha, CEO of Pharma Secure. India has been a leader in securing its pharmaceutical supply chains, after some spurious drugs in the Nigerian market labelled &lsquo;made in India&rsquo; were found to have been made in China, but the tragic incident in Gambia shows that India needs to do much more to tighten regulation, they say.

Every winter, for several years, Delhi&rsquo;s air quality index (AQI) goes over 500, when safe air for breathing has an AQI between 0 and 50. We hear about it on news channels, governments pass short-term measures, but for those who face the brunt of it every day, these steps have done little. It isn&rsquo;t the rich in cars or those working out of their offices for most of the day who are impacted the most, but the poor, those working on the street, and those working in jobs that are already polluting, such as construction. The irony lies in the fact that most of these people contribute very little to air pollution&ndash;they neither own cars nor have large electricity bills. The video, by &nbsp;@RohitUpadhyay&nbsp;, tells you more.

What lessons can we learn from China&rsquo;s relaxation of its zero-Covid policy after three years, and from India&rsquo;s ongoing measles outbreak? From China&rsquo;s experience, we should learn that we cannot completely eradicate all infectious viruses, but understand that these are going to be part of our ecosystem, said K. Srinath Reddy, president of the Public Health Foundation of India, in an interview. Thus, India&rsquo;s public health policy must prioritise effective disease surveillance at the local level to detect disease outbreaks like measles early on, and frame a rapid response, he said.

Surajo Bai Yadav of Paria Bahara in #Chhattisgarh explains how they collect #cowdung &amp; cow urine to create compost and use it to grow urad, millets and rice on their farm. This natural farming technique has been used in Chhattisgarh, especially by the Kamar tribe for ages. But some of it was getting lost to farming with artificial chemical fertilisers. In July 2020, the Chhattisgarh government announced the Godhan Nyay Yojana, which means a scheme that identifies the benefits of a cow. The government procures cow-dung at Rs 2 per kilogram (kg), which women from self-help groups convert to three grades of compost at government constructed cow shelters, and the government sells at a starting price of Rs 10 per kg, as an alternative to harmful fertilisers and pesticides. Watch our video to understand how the Godhan Nyay Yojana has fared.

At a time when India is aiming to cut emission intensity of its GDP by 45% by 2030, the country is also gearing up for the Deocha-Pachami coal mine in West Bengal's Birbhum. It could be the world's second largest coal mine once fully operational. However, a small environmental organisation, consisting of indigenous and Dalit people, is resisting the project, citing its perilous impact on the climate and violation of land rights of tribals. Read this report by Niladry Sarkar, supported by the Earth Journalism Network, about the group&rsquo;s struggle in Adivasi hinterlands.

In October 2022, India got its first 24x7 solar village&ndash;Gujarat&rsquo;s Modhera. But this has had fallouts for residents of neighbouring Sujanpura village, on part of whose grazing land the power plant for Modhera is built.
The villagers of Sujanpura are Maldharis, or traditional pastoralists, with each family owning at least a few cattle. Since the construction of the solar power plant, residents say that families spend at least Rs 200-Rs 300 a day to buy hay for their livestock, which was earlier freely available in the commons. Many have even had to sell their livestock to cope.
In response, the Mehsana District Collector said that, &ldquo;it is public good being done,&rdquo; and that even Sujanpura&rsquo;s residents benefited as they received solar panels. &ldquo;A lot of times we have to take decisions in the larger public interest.&rdquo;

The National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) recorded 1,066 acid attacks in the five years from 2017 to 2021. Of these, over 60% of the victims were women. Organizations, such as the Acid Survivors Trust International, say these numbers are underreported; the real number is likely to exceed 1,000 attacks a year. Around a third of the victims (31%) suffer complete or partial blindness, experts estimate. Sneha Richhariya travels to Cuttack to meet Rani, who was attacked with acid in 2009, left paralysed and blind. The last 14 years have been a battle for Rani to regain part of her vision, and her life, she tells us.
