"Based on a specific input about the presence of the Maoists in the Usoor-Basaguda-Pamed area of Bijapur, a joint team of District Reserve Guard (DRG), Special Task Force (STF), COBRA (elite unit of CRPF) and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) left for a search operation in the region. On reaching close to the location where Maoists were present near Rekhapalli-Komathpalli hilly forested terrain, an encounter ensued between the forces and the outlaws," said a police officer in Bastar.

UNLEARNING THE SUSTAINABLE WAY

In 2012, environmental activist Jyoti Raghavan Khanduja was returning from a family vacation in Jim Corbett National Park back to her home in Gurugram. As her car neared the Ghazipur landfill, a sharp stench sliced through the already polluted air, conjuring a dystopian image as if straight from Charles Dickens’ Hard Times. \"It was a horrendous sight. There was a monster of garbage there. It was a wake-up call to create a community of conscious children who are ready to tackle future challenges—poor waste management, rising pollution, water crisis, food shortages, labour crises and other such problems. I wanted them to be concerned for the environment right from the start,\" she says as she walks me around the vast expanse of her new community-driven school, Forest Spirit Learning, in the foothills of the forested Aravalli mountain range in Shikohpur, Gurugram.
