"I vividly remember that evening. Sitting behind a friend on a bike, I mentally made a list of items to buy from Kolkata. In a split second, my life changed forever.

The bike collided with a giant lorry, and I fell to the ground as the lorry ran over both my legs. Image
The next thing I heard was screaming and a large crowd looming over my head.

Fully conscious, I was taken to a hospital, where the doctors recommended surgery to save my legs. But due to my family’s financial situation, it was delayed by 12 days.
My legs could not be saved for lack of money, a reality I had to accept. There was no point in cooking up ‘what if’ scenarios.

My brother, who was the sole breadwinner, had already spent a lot on my treatment. In between all this, people looked at me as if I was a burden.

A district collector from Telangana has achieved the unthinkable by raising groundwater levels by a staggering six metres!

India’s water woes are no secret. Dwindling groundwater threatens farms, industries, and even basic needs like drinking water. Image
IAS officer Devarakonda Krishna Bhaskar, the mastermind behind this success story, tackled water scarcity head-on.

“Water scarcity has been a never-ending issue for the district,” he says.
“All the taluks or mandals were labelled in the category of drought-prone or semi-drought-prone.”

To tackle water scarcity, the district launched a programme, including restoring old tanks and setting up modern piped water systems.

Nothing beats the feeling of quenching your thirst with ‘matka’ water on a scorching summer afternoon.

As temperatures in India soar to new highs, many are turning to an age-old solution for relief: Terracotta. Image
It’s a type of baked earthenware that has a natural ability to absorb water.

When water evaporates from the terracotta's surface, it creates a cooling effect similar to sweating. Image
This simple process can lower indoor temperatures by several degrees, providing much-needed respite from the heat.

Here’s how terracotta is helping Indians fight extreme heat >>
