@Jairam_Ramesh Really a great news.

The New York Times reports that Iran has recorded a jump this year in its official number of Asiatic cheetahs which now stands at 21 new adults and 6 cubs. In the past India had tried to get Asiatic cheetahs from Iran but that had not been possible for various reasons including the fact of their critically endangered status there. nytimes.com/2026/04/28/wor…

@prashant_lmp @DudhwaTR @UpforestUp @moefcc States must come down seriously and urgently on this issue.Vultures are already in crisis and some states are doing their best to restore their populations.
