My first story as part of @ACJIndia Climate Residency Fellowship is looking at what India's push for ports is doing to coastal communities and their livelihoods. This story, reported from Gujarat's Kandla creek, illustrates how skewed the policies are against coastal communities
Article 14@Article14live

Imagine living somewhere for 150 years & being called an encroacher. As ports expand, coastal communities pay the price. In Gujarat’s Kandla creek, 1,400 mostly Muslim homes were demolished From @shreyaraman18 after 7 months of reporting. Subscribe to support such stories 1/2

An unknown pathogen might cross over the zoonotic bridge and pose great threat to the stability of the world. As we discovered during the COVID pandemic. The only way to be prep for that kind of an extreme scenario is a One Health approach. I write in @the_hindu OpEd yesterday:

Chennai Metro Rail was preparing to open this stretch, first in Dec which was then postponed to Feb. It is to be noted Poonamallee-Porur stretch got final safety clearance from Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety approving it is fit for ops. It is likely to be opened in June now

In this episode, we focus on Saidapet — one of Chennai’s most historic and politically significant constituencies. Once known as the “Chief Minister’s constituency,” Saidapet carries a strong legacy, having elected leaders like M. Karunanidhi in the past. Spread across key areas like Guindy, Kotturpuram, Nandanam, and Jafferkhanpet, the constituency is home to major institutions such as Anna University and Indian Institute of Technology Madras, along with important industrial and transport hubs. As Tamil Nadu heads to the polls on April 23, 2026, the key question remains — will Saidapet’s strong political legacy and governance outweigh everyday civic concerns, or will voter sentiment shift this time @ramyakannan

Who composed the DMK's campaign song? "Stalin Thodarattum"? Excellent, catchy and ideological. AIADMK missed out!

Do read this report by @Rajalakshmi2398 about a South African woman remains in a Trichy camp months after her acquittal. Msomi was arrested in 2017 after the Narcotics Control Bureau seized over 1 kg of cocaine, reportedly worth ₹5 crore, from her at Chennai airport. newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-n…

Acquitted by the Madras High Court, yet not free Nearly seven months later, a 57 year old South African woman remains confined in a Foreigners Special Camp in #Trichy as her deportation continues to be delayed with no clear timeline. Despite court directions and lapsed deadlines, authorities are yet to act. After spending eight years in custody before being cleared of charges, she now finds herself stuck in administrative limbo. #South #African Read the full story here : l1nq.com/tobxqcv

In a constituency watch, I travel back to trams on Purasawalkam High Road, and the time I lived in a lane opposite RK Narayan's house on No 1. Vellalar Street 😀. Also the iconic Egmore station, a gateway to million dreams from the south. @ramyakannan, @LakshmiK06, @meenakshy_13.
