sandrp.in/2020/11/10/riv… (1/9) This map gives you a glimpse of the very dense drainage network in the region. Rivers don't care for "International boundaries", and make a stronger case for transboundary co-operation.

Lots of these rivers are heavily mined though. #EdenWalk #Rivers #India (2/9)

Hi all, here's a map of Kolkata with wards marked out. 1-141

The current lockdown might last long & we have to prepare for the situation. 1 way to approach this problem is decentralisation. Stay with me. (1/n) The map here lists all the wards of Kolkata with boundaries. We form ward level information & volunteer units. Add information about each ward, & some people from each ward to take ownership of their respective wards. This will help us resolve issues locally. (2/n)
