Gujarat govt rejigs Porbandar forest division as Asiatic lions return to Barda
Digital Desk | Gandhinagar, Sep 29 (IANS) The Gujarat government has reorganised the Porbandar Forest Division, including its range and beat structure, to strengthen field-level administration as Asiatic lions establish themselves in Barda forest, the Forest and Environment Department said on Tuesday. The reorganisation, approved under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, will bring changes in the administrative control of forest ranges, beats, officers, staff and resources, with the stated objective of improving forest management and facilitating the implementation of departmental schemes and resolution of forest and environment-related issues in Porbandar district. The move comes after Asiatic lions naturally returned to Barda after 143 years. The revised administrative structure will cover the Barda region as well as other forest areas under the Porbandar Forest Division and provide for clearer responsibilities at the range and beat levels. Under the new arrangement, the Porbandar Range will cover 6,840.84 hectares and 80 villages. It will be divided into beats including Porbandar City, Gosabara, Moker, Visavada, Kantela, Madhavpur and Satiya, with specific areas and villages assigned to each beat. The Ranavav Range will cover 13,051.25 hectares and 27 villages, with areas including Godana, Bileshwar, Savdivadar and Ranavav distributed among different beats. The restructuring also transfers 305.94 hectares from the RFW Bhatia Range of the Jamnagar Forest Division to the Bhanvad Range of the Porbandar Forest Division. The transferred area covers four villages Kandarda Jogna, Sajdiyala, Juna and Jambusar in Bhanvad taluka of Devbhumi Dwarka district. Its administrative functions will now come under the Porbandar Forest Division. The Kutiyana Range, Porbandar Social Forestry Range and Ranavav Social Forestry Range will also be brought under the Porbandar Forest Division. The division will consequently have seven ranges. To support the expanded structure, provision has been made for two Assistant Conservators of Forests. Assistant Conservator of Forests-1 will oversee the Porbandar, Porbandar Social Forestry and Ranavav Social Forestry ranges, while Assistant Conservator of Forests-2 will oversee the Ranavav, Bhanvad and Kutiyana ranges and the Mobile Squad (T.A.) Range. One vacant Assistant Conservator of Forests post from the two sanctioned posts at Kevadia will be transferred to the Porbandar Forest Division, in addition to the existing post. The Porbandar Forest Division will continue to function under the Junagadh Wildlife Circle, with the Deputy Conservator of Forests overseeing the division and the two Assistant Conservators supervising their respective ranges. The Range Forest Officer will also be responsible for the Porbandar Forest Division's Mobile Squad, bringing its operations within the reorganised administrative framework. The restructuring will involve the transfer or redistribution of staff and resources, including vehicles, weapons, walkie-talkies, wireless equipment, records, computers, furniture and other departmental assets. The government resolution said the changes are intended to provide clearer field-level responsibilities and strengthen administrative support for forest conservation, wildlife management and lion rehabilitation in Barda. The resolution came into effect immediately upon publication.
Newcastle University says Anant Ambani didn
Newcastle University has responded to the criticism of the professorship conferred on Anant Ambani in the Guardian and other newspapers by making it clear that billionaire businessman Mukesh Ambanis 31-year-old son did not pay for the honour. This new declaration appears to neutralise much of the criticism levelled against Anant. It perhaps also closes the door to money changing hands in the future. Most UK universities are financially in dire straits and are looking to India as part of the solution. A number have opened or are considering opening physical campuses in India. A spokesperson for Newcastle University said: We can confirm that the University hasnt received a donation from Anant Ambani or a company affiliated with him. The spokesperson added: The award of a Professorship of Practice recognises Mr Ambanis contributions to conservation, biodiversity protection, animal welfare and environmental stewardship through his work with Vantara, a wildlife rescue and conservation initiative, and as the executive lead for the Reliance Groups transition toward a green energy future. It is understood that his role does not confer any qualifications or have any involvement in setting the academic direction of Newcastle University. The Guardian claimed Newcastle was facing a backlash from conservationists. This has already been reported in Eastern Eye. The paper said the universitys announcement was met with incredulity and derision from academic staff and Indian and international conservationists and environmentalists. Prof Lyla Mehta, the head of the climate, environment and sustainability department at the University of Sussexs Institute of Development Studies, told the paper that as public funding for universities falls, there is a real danger that billionaire and corporate money begins to shape academia. She said: Universities are supposed to be places that question power and hold corporations to account, not give them academic legitimacy. Lorne Stockman, a research co-director at Oil Change International, said: At a time when the climate crisis demands an urgent phaseout of oil and gas, we must demand our publicly funded institutions do better. The paper also referred to the Indian prime ministers links with the Ambanis: Ambani is the son of Indias richest person, Mukesh Ambani, who made his fortune primarily in oil and gas, owns the worlds largest oil refinery and has close ties with the ruling Bharatiya Janata party (BJP). Mukesh Ambani has enthusiastically praised BJP policies, and firms linked to his Reliance conglomerate have recently made significant donations to the party. The prime minister, Narendra Modi, attended Anant Ambanis lavish 2024 wedding in Mumbai. Anant Amabani, 31, who is leads on renewable energy on the Reliance Groups executive board and is worth an estimated 90bn, has set up Vantara, a 1,400-hectare (3,500-acre) private zoo near the familys oil refining facilities in Gujarat, which reportedly has more than 150,000 animals including 200 lions, 250 leopards and 900 crocodiles, and where he hosted his opulent pre-wedding celebrations attended by celebrity guests and politicians. Conservation groups have previously raised questions about how some of the animals were sourced, given many were endangered species. Vantara has never been found guilty of any wrongdoing. Modi is not short of supporters in the UK, one of whom, the Tory businessman Lord Rami Ranger said: This is just jealousy. These people want to talk India down. The Ambanis have taken India to the next level. The UK-India trade deal is good for both countries. This professorship will raise the international profile of Newcastle University and attract more Indian students. They dont see the broader picture. Mukesh Ambani owns Hamleys in Regent Street, probably the biggest toyshop in the world, and a 300-acre Stoke Park estate in Buckinghamshire. Last years Pink Ball at the British Museum, an answer to the Met Gala in New York, raised 2.5m for greater collaboration with India with the help of Mukesh Ambanis wife and daughter, Nita and Isha Ambani. Another Indian entrepreneur, Gautam Adani, is sponsoring the Adani Green Energy Gallery at the Science Museum in London on a long-term basis. In procession after the ceremony, Anant Ambani with (l) Professor Chris Day, Vice-Chancellor and (r) Imtiaz Dharker, Chancellor Eastern Eye In its original announcement, Newcastle University said: Mr Anant Ambani, known for his work in conservation, biodiversity protection, animal welfare, and environmental stewardship received the honour in recognition of his significant contributions to advancing a more sustainable future, in a ceremony in the Universitys historic Kings Hall. Professor Ambani founded Vantara, a 3,500-acre wildlife rescue and conservation initiative in Jamnagar district, Gujarat, India, which focuses on the rescue, rehabilitation, and protection of abused, injured, and endangered animals from all over the world. Work on the rehabilitation of elephants was recognised with the prestigious Prani Mitra National Award, Indias highest recognition for corporate contribution to animal welfare. Professor Ambani became the youngest and first Asian recipient of the Global Humane Award, a prestigious recognition for leadership in evidence-based welfare programs, science-led conservation initiatives and sustained efforts to protect vulnerable species worldwide Work at Vantara closely aligns with the Universitys world-leading research on global conservation and biodiversity targets, as well as inter-disciplinary expertise including in data visualisation and analysis. The ceremony celebrated a shared commitment to environmental responsibility and global impact. The Professorship was conferred in a traditional ceremony presided over by the University Chancellor, Imtiaz Dharker, and attended by his wife Mrs Radhika Ambani alongside leading figures in the world of business, conservation and academia. Imtiaz, a distinguished poet and mother of the actress Ayesha Dharker, is finishing a seven-year stint as chancellor. Ayesha will star in The Jungle Book at the National Theatre in November. On receiving the honour, Anant delivered a lecture called The road to a sustainable tomorrow: As humanity confronts a different set of global challenges, I believe conservation and sustainability must become the next great movement one that transcends nations, generations and differences. It is in that spirit that I accept this honour not simply as a recognition of past work, but as a responsibility to do more: to help build a future in which people and nature thrive together, on the one planet we all call home. Speaking before the ceremony, Anant remarked: Everyone who graduates from here has the potential to change the world in some way. I am so honoured to be here at the steps of Newcastle University where the honourable and most legendary Martin Luther King stood. Sustainability and protecting a world with kindness and compassion is the most required. I think Newcastle has the potential to give back to society by getting the students to be the most compassionate students ever. Professor Chris Day, Vice-Chancellor and President of Newcastle University, said: We are facing a global challenge, and it is critical that we act with urgency to reverse biodiversity decline and enable nature's recovery. Achieving this requires bold leadership, innovation and collaboration across sectors. Professor Ambani is demonstrating exactly this kind of leadership, driving forward ambitious solutions that support the restoration of healthy, resilient ecosystems for future generations. I am delighted to welcome Professor Ambani into Newcastle University. Sustainability is one of the foundations on which our institution is built, underpinning and strengthening our core activities in education, research and engagement. Global leaders such as Professor Ambani are helping to redefine what is possible, bringing together sustainability, technology and business transformation to deliver meaningful impact for society and address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. The ceremony was held in Kings Hall within the historic Armstrong Building, which in 1967 was the setting for Dr Martin Luther King Jr receiving his honorary doctorate Newcastle University being the only UK university to honour him in his lifetime.

Eastern Eye Newcastle also said that beyond his wildlife conservation work, Anant is an Executive Director of Reliance Industries and a key force behind the groups transition toward a new energy future, advancing initiatives in solar manufacturing, green hydrogen, circular materials, carbon capture, clean fuels, and next-generation energy technologies. His leadership supports Reliances ambitious vision of becoming a Net Carbon Zero enterprise by 2035 one of the largest sustainability transitions being undertaken by any company globally. It added: Professor Ambanis vision resonates strongly with Newcastle Universitys own commitment to advancing a more sustainable future. Through pioneering research and education in energy transitions, clean energy systems and electrification, the University is helping to develop the technologies, evidence and skilled workforce needed to support the global shift to a low-carbon economy. These shared ambitions demonstrate the value of collaboration between industry and academia in addressing some of the world's most pressing environmental challenges. Professor Stephanie Glendinning, the universitys Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering, commented: Having recently visited Vantara and witnessed first-hand the extraordinary work being undertaken there, I was both excited and deeply honoured that Professor Ambani visited us in Newcastle University. We share a vision rooted in a profound respect for nature and for all living beings. By bringing together our knowledge, experience and commitment to service, we have an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to some of the world's most pressing challenges: food and water security, biodiversity loss, and animal welfare. Inspired by the understanding that all life is interconnected, we believe that through collaboration, compassion and innovation, we can help bring about transformative change for the benefit of both people and the wider living world. In the closing speech to the ceremony, the Honorary consul General of India (Newcastle), J M Meenu Malhotra, said: The bond between the United Kingdom and India is among the deepest and most enduring in the world a partnership of history, of family, of trade, and of shared ambition. Here in the North East, and at this University, that partnership is no abstraction. It lives in the students who travel between our two countries, in the research that crosses our borders, and in occasions such as this one. The challenges facing our environment respect no borders, and no single nation, however great, can meet them alone. But the United Kingdom and India, working side by side - in science, in enterprise, and in conscience - can help to light that road for others to follow. Sanjana Medipally, the universitys Strategic Partnerships Lead for India, said: Having seen Vantaras work first-hand, Ive been struck by how closely it mirrors Newcastle Universitys own commitment to conservation and a sustainable future. This partnership has been a privilege to build, and I look forward to helping it grow into something of lasting value for both our countries.

Digital Desk | Surat, Sep 14 (IANS) Ganeshotsav celebrations in parts of Gujarat took a community-focussed turn this year, with sanitation workers felicitated in Surat, an appeal for organ donation made during the festival and traditional celebrations held in Jamnagar and Vadodara. At the Kamrej Assembly Karmayog Office in Surat, the idol of Lord Ganesh was installed in the presence of state Health Minister Praful Pansheriya and other officials after prayers and an 'aarti'. Sanitation workers and their families, who work through the night to keep the city clean, were specially felicitated during the event, while the first 'aarti' was performed by members of the sanitation worker families. Pansheriya said sanitation staff worked through the night to keep Surat clean and their contribution was important in maintaining cleanliness in the city and across the state. He called for people to worship together and conveyed a message of social harmony, saying that there should be no distinction between people as big or small. The event was organised under the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, as part of programmes marking 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modis governance and public service journey. Pansheriya outlined government efforts to take public service and welfare initiatives to the people and prayed for the welfare, health and prosperity of citizens. He also urged people to ensure that government welfare and healthcare schemes reached those who needed them and could benefit from them. Linking the festival with a social cause, Pansheriya appealed to people to encourage organ donation during Ganeshotsav so that those awaiting transplants could receive a new lease of life. He called for greater public awareness and efforts to increase organ donation.

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) The Delhi Assembly, Sardar Patel Vidyalaya (SPV) and several government establishments in the national capital received bomb threats through email on Tuesday, officials said, prompting security agencies to immediately activate standard operating procedures and launch extensive checks at the affected locations.
