Odisha Millets Mission started in 2017 with an initial investment of Rs 60-65 crore per year, and has now increased to Rs 360 crore per year. The state government has allocated Rs 2,808 crore for the next six years. The idea is simply mainstreaming millet consumption, from daily household meals to international events like the recently concluded Hockey World Cup to partnering with corporate houses.

A joint study by Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability and Azim Premji University shows that a total of 895 questions related to climate change were asked in Parliament in a period of 20 years, which is less than even one per cent of the total queries asked in the House. The low representation of such questions is that climate change does not influence voting behaviour, mentioned the study.

Hilly terrain, hard to extract groundwater and failed schemes make life miserable for the 3,000 odd villagers of Lahuria Deh village in Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. Each of them gets just 15 litres of water a day to drink, cook and wash. Women suffer the most. A ground report as part of Gaon Connection's Paani Yatra.
