Sachin Tendulkar needs no introduction! The legendary Indian cricketer also known as the ‘God of Cricket’, recently shared some beautiful pictures from his maiden trip to Kashmir. In the pictures he shared on social media, he can be seen enjoying snowfall in Gulmarg with his wife Anjali Tendulkar and daughter Sara Tendulkar.
Looks like Master Blaster (as the world knows him) is enjoying his post retirement phase in the best way possible, which is travelling the world! Sharing his picture on X, a 50-year old Tendulkar wrote, “Hamara ‘pehla’
Always ready for some fun and games, Tendulkar also attempted the famous Shahrukh Khan pose in one of the pictures. Additionally, he enjoyed a playful moment with a pet goat on the snowy terrain.
Upon his retirement, Tendulkar made a promise to his wife and children, including his son Arjun, that he would compensate for the time he couldn't spend with them due to his international cricket commitments for India. True to his word, the cricket legend has been actively fulfilling his promise, taking numerous short breaks and vacations with his family whenever the opportunity arises.
Before that he mentioned it a “match made in heaven" as he was taken by surprise on seeing some youngsters playing gully cricket in Uri, a lovely town in Kashmir.

Telangana: Two 1300-year-old temples unearthed in ancient Nalgonda temple
As per the latest development, two temples dating back to 1300 years have been uncovered. If reports are to go by, in the village of Mudimanikyam, nestled along the banks of the river Krishna in Nalgonda district, a team led by Dr. M A Srinivasan and S Ashok Kumar from the Public Research Institute of History, Archaeology, and Heritage (PRIHAH), made some remarkable archaeological discoveries. Along with two Badami Chalukya temples, dating back over 1300 years to the Badami Chalukyan period, a 1200-year-old label inscription was also unearthed.

Reports add that the label inscription, in all likelihood, dates back to the 8th or 9th Century AD, which is during the Badami Chalukya era, as it bears the intriguing term 'Gandaloranru' and is engraved on a pillar within a cluster of five temples. While the precise meaning remains elusive, Dr. Munirathnam Reddy, Director of Epigraphy at the Archaeological Survey of India, suggested that the initial letters ‘Ganda’ in Kannada might signify ‘hero,’ possibly implying a heroic title.

Dr. M A Srinivasan, General Secretary of PRIHAH, explained the historical significance of the Krishna river valley, which has been further accentuated by the newfound artifacts in Mudimanikyam village.
At the end of the village, two temples dating between 543 AD and 750 AD stand as exceptional relics from the Badami Chalukyan rule. Dr. Srinivasan noted their uniqueness as Badami Chalukyan temples adopting the Kadamba nagara style in the Rekha nagara format—an architectural rarity in Telangana. He is of the view that with minimal conservation and restoration work, these temples can serve as testimonies to the Badami Chalukyan period in Telangana.

Mexico City will likely run out of water in a few months!
Mexico City, one of the world’s biggest cities that serves as home to nearly 22 million inhabitants, is not facing a pressing water crisis, which is further accentuated by a complex interplay of numerous factors. The challenges stem from geographical constraints, deteriorating infrastructure, chaotic urban development, all compounded by the impacts of climate change.
If reports are to go by, this region has been facing prolonged periods of abnormally low rainfall, further extended dry spells, and elevated temperatures have strained an already burdened water system grappling with surging demand. Consequently, authorities have gone ahead to implement substantial restrictions on water extraction from reservoirs.
Despite politicians downplaying the severity of the situation, experts, including atmospheric scientist Christian Domínguez Sarmiento from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), warn that Mexico City is on the brink of a potential "day zero" scenario in a matter of months. This ominous prospect arises from critical water shortages that have plagued several neighborhoods for weeks, further made worse by the anticipation of four more months before the rainy season begins.
Mexico City's precarious situation is deeply rooted in its historical development. Originally built on a high-altitude lake bed, the city, situated around 7,300 ft above sea level, has been facing challenges, such as sinking due to clay-rich soil, seismic vulnerabilities, and heightened susceptibility to climate change. The city's expansion over the years has witnessed the transformation of wetlands and rivers into concrete and asphalt, resulting in flooding during the rainy season and drought in the dry season.

Is global warming responsible for turning Greenland greener?

A study that was recently published revealed that the area of ice loss in Greenland over the past three decades is approximately 36 times the size of New York City. This land, once covered in ice, is rapidly transforming into wetlands and shrubs. And this is concerning experts for obvious reasons.
If analysis of satellite imagery is to go by, it indicates that Greenland lost 28,707 sq km of ice during this period. The research highlights that Greenland has witnessed increase in vegetation from the mid-1980s to the mid-2010s, and seen the transformation of once icy and snowy landscapes into barren rock, wetlands, and shrub-covered areas. Specifically, the wetlands experienced a fourfold expansion during this period.

The primary driver of ice loss is warmer air temperatures, leading to raised land temperatures and the melting of permafrost beneath the Earth's surface. This permafrost melt releases carbon dioxide and methane, contributing to global warming. Additionally, it causes land instability, posing risks to infrastructure and buildings. The report stresses the emergence of a feedback loop, where the loss of ice exposes bare rock, promoting further ‘greening’ of Greenland as tundra and shrubs colonize the area.

Thailand announces medical coverage of up to USD14,000 for travellers

Thailand has implemented a new initiative to entice tourists back after the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Under this scheme, visitors will receive medical coverage of up to USD 14,000 in case of accidents, as announced by the tourism minister.
Additionally, the government will provide compensation of up to one million baht (approximately USD 37,270) in the unfortunate event of a visitor's death. This move comes as Thailand's tourism sector continues to grapple with the aftermath of pandemic-induced travel restrictions, with a slower-than-anticipated recovery in tourist arrivals.

The country hopes that by offering enhanced safety measures and financial protection, it will be possible to rebuild confidence among travellers and stimulate the resurgence of tourism in the country.
The Thailand Traveller Safety scheme commenced on January 1 and is slated to run until August 31, 2024. Tourism Minister Sudawan Wangsuphakijkosol emphasised that the primary objective of the campaign is to assure visitors that Thailand prioritises their well-being and ensures they receive proper care.

Delhi: Red Fort shuts down temporarily for visitors amid farmers protest

As per the latest news reports, the historical Red Fort in Delhi has been sealed off amid escalating tensions surrounding the farmer protests gripping the national capital. In response to queries about the reopening of the 17th-century monument, the senior official stated, "The decision rests with the security agencies."
Reports add that security measures in Delhi have been heightened, featuring multi-layer barricades, concrete blocks, iron nails, and container walls at border points. These measures aim to prevent the 'Delhi Chalo' march by farmers from entering the national capital on Tuesday, following inconclusive talks between farm leaders and the Centre.

The Shambhu border point, a critical juncture for farmers heading to Delhi as part of their 'Delhi Chalo' movement, has become a focal point of unrest. A senior official stated that the Red Fort complex is currently closed to visitors, and its reopening depends on the decisions of security agencies.

Spread over a vast area of 350 hectares, the site features sacred groves revered by the local community and is endowed with a diverse range of flora and fauna.
As per the biodiversity inventory and survey conducted by the Odisha Biodiversity Board, the site serves as home to a remarkable array of faunal species, including 28 species of mammals, 18 species of amphibians, 188 species of birds, 48 species of reptiles, 141 species of butterflies, 45 species of fishes, 43 species of moths, 41 species of odonates, 30 species of spiders, 20 species of lower invertebrates, and six species of scorpions.

The limestone caves of Gupteswar are particularly captivating, housing eight bat species out of the total 16 found in southern Odisha.
Furthermore, the site also has a rich floral diversity, featuring 182 species of trees, 177 species of herbs, 76 species of shrubs, 14 species of orchids, 69 species of climbers, and threatened medicinal plants. Agriculturally and industrially important micro-organisms are also indicated to thrive in this primeval ecosystem.
The declaration of Gupteswar as a BHS will not only enhance the cultural significance of the forest, but also ensure the conservation of its precious biodiversity. With this declaration, the state now has four BHSs, including Mandasaru BHS in Kandhamal district, Mahendragiri BHS in Gajapati district, and Gandhamardan BHS in Bargarh and Balangir districts.

Arunachal Pradesh: Trekkers accidently discover cave used during World War II by Allied Forces

A team of 27 trekkers, led by Tagit Sorang, an Everester, recently made an intriguing discovery near the Arunachal-Myanmar border. Scaling the hills of Tirap district in the frontier state, the group stumbled upon a stone cave at the 2,119-meter-high ‘Longpongka’ point. This accidental find unveiled a historical secret—the cave served as a transit camp for Allied Forces during World War II, which was strategically positioned to impede the advance of the Japanese army.

The trekkers, on a mission against drugs, not only explored the cave but also gathered photographic evidence and details about the site the following day. Local residents pointed out circular symbols, English abbreviations, and numerical carvings on stones near the cave, all of which served as significant markers of the transit camp.

According to accounts from the locals, the Allied Forces used this strategic location to resist the Japanese soldiers making their way from Burma (now Myanmar) into vast areas of the North-East Frontier Agency, which is present-day Arunachal Pradesh. Following the war, the site was abandoned and remained hidden from the outside world.
Khunwang Khusia, a retired forester and native of Thinsa village, part of the trekking team, explained that the hilltop, referred to as ‘Silombhu’ in the local language, was used by the Allied Forces to stock ration and equipment sent from Assam.

Residents believe that the cave's giant rocks provided a secure shelter, as enemy bullets were unable to pe*****te the sturdy structure. Despite their efforts, the trekkers could not reach the cave's endpoint due to its narrow opening. Also, if reports are to be believed, the porters from neighboring villages, who used to transport defense supplies, have since passed away.

Delhi travel advisory: Section 144 imposed in the capital ahead of farmers' march

The Delhi Police has taken preemptive measures ahead of a planned farmers' march to the national capital on February 13 by imposing Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code in entire Delhi. This decision comes amidst concerns of potential unrest and violence, echoing past experiences, particularly the 2020 farmers' agitation.
Farmers are set to begin their Delhi Chalo march at 10am (February 13), but the Haryana government has erected significant fencing along its border with Punjab to prevent protesters from entering. Similarly, Delhi's borders have been strengthened to avoid a repeat of the 2020-21 farmers' protest.
According to an order issued by the Delhi Police, some farmer organisations have called upon their supporters to gather and march to Delhi on February 13 to press their demands, including legislation on Minimum Support Price (MSP) and the implementation of the Swaminathan Commission's recommendations. The protesters are expected to sit at the border of Delhi until their demands are met.

The order, effective until March 12, 2023, prohibits gatherings of five or more persons, with or without weapons, in the entire jurisdiction of the national capital. Additionally, it bans the blocking of roads, conducting processions, and the use of amplifiers at any private vehicle, public building, or public place.
Moreover, restrictions have been imposed on the entry of vehicles transporting individuals or materials such as sticks, guns, swords, and fi****ms into the city. All vehicular traffic originating from the borders of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh and heading towards Delhi will undergo rigorous inspection, as ordered by the Delhi Police.

Bali all set to impose a $10 tourism tax starting from Valentine’s Day

Bali is all set to impose its new tourism tax starting from February 14. Referring to this, officials in the know-how divulged the final details as the launch date approaches. Notably, seven visitor visa categories are exempt from the IDR 150,000 tourism tax fee.
While individuals holding these exempt visas won't be required to pay the tax, they must log in online and apply for an exemption. The eligible visa categories include diplomatic and official visas, crew members on transportation vehicles, and holders of temporary or permanent stay permit cards (KITAS and KITAP). Additionally, those with family unification visas, Golden Visas, student visas, and business-specific visas are also exempt.

If reports are to go by, those seeking an exemption from the tourism levy, will be required to submit their requests a minimum of one month before their entry into Bali.

Authorities may ask tourists to present their tourism levy vouchers.

Amidst the anticipated farmers' protest scheduled for Tuesday, the police commissionerate of Gautam Buddh Nagar has taken preemptive measures by issuing a comprehensive traffic advisory. With the aim of maintaining public safety and order, authorities have announced stringent vehicle inspections for all travelers passing through Gautam Buddh Nagar en route to its borders with Delhi.
The heightened security measures come as part of the authorities' efforts to regulate traffic flow and ensure compliance with regulations during the protest period.

Notably, eight of these forts are protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), including Shivneri fort, Lohagad, Raigad, Suvarnadurg, Panhala fort, Vijaydurg, Sindhudurg, and Gingee fort.
The 'Maratha Military Landscapes of India' spans various categories of forts, such as hill forts like Salher Fort, Shivneri Fort, Lohagad, Raigad, Rajgad, and Gingee fort, a hill-forest fort like Pratapgad, a hill-plateau fort like Panhala, a coastal fort like Vijaydurg, and island forts like Khanderi fort, Suvarnadurg, and Sindhudurg.

Sri Lanka witnesses an influx of Indian tourists post India-Maldives’ diplomatic row

In January 2024, a diplomatic dispute between India and the Maldives led to Indian tourists shifting their travel preferences towards Sri Lanka, resulting in Sri Lanka surpassing the Maldives in tourist arrivals for the month. The rift stemmed from critical remarks made by Maldivian ministers against Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India, prompting Indian tourists to initiate a ‘boycott Maldives’ movement. As a consequence, Sri Lanka experienced a significant surge in tourist arrivals, with Indian visitors leading the influx.

The spike in Indian tourists visiting Sri Lanka was cited as a primary factor contributing to the surge in tourist arrivals, with the number of Indian visitors more than doubling from 13,759 in January of the previous year to 34,399 in January 2024. In contrast, the Maldives witnessed a decline in Indian tourists, with their numbers dropping from 17,029 to 15,006 during the same period.

New Zealand: Magnetic anomaly beneath Lake Rotorua exposes ancient secrets

In a significant revelation, scientists have discovered a concealed hydrothermal system beneath the waters of Lake Rotorua, a place that is rich in Maori legend, and which is situated atop a dormant volcanic crater on New Zealand's North Island.
This latest discovery not only adds a fresh dimension to the lake's extensive history, but also represents a notable milestone in comprehending subterranean geological phenomena.
Lake Rotorua, famed for its geothermal wonders such as bubbling mud pools, natural hot springs, and shooting geysers, has long held the Earth's fiery power. Despite the intense geothermal activity, the lake's bottom temperature remains relatively cool. Shallow in nature, with an average depth of around 10 m, it is part of the Taupo Volcanic Zone, formed by the collapse of a magma chamber following a volcanic eruption, resulting in the creation of the Rotorua Caldera.
Researchers from GNS Science, a New Zealand research institute, meticulously mapped approximately 68% of Lake Rotorua's floor, spanning 55 sq km. Their efforts revealed eruption craters, remnants of an ancient river, and a significant magnetic anomaly in the southern part of the lake.
For the first time, these discoveries validate that the familiar hydrothermal activity observed on the mainland also reaches into the submerged domain of Lake Rotorua.

Iran announces visa-free policy for Indians, subject to conditions
In a significant move to encourage cultural exchanges and boost tourism, the Islamic Republic of Iran has announced a visa-free policy for citizens of India, effective from February 4, 2024.
If reports are to go by, the visa exemption, part of a broader initiative, has been extended to 33 countries, including Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Brazil, and Mexico. It was approved by Iranian authorities in December. Ezzatollah Zarghami, Iranian Culture Minister, stated that the objective is to boost tourism.
The visa waiver applies exclusively to Indian nationals arriving in Iran by air and is specifically designed for tourism purposes. Under this new policy, individuals holding ordinary passports can enter Iran without a visa once every six months, with a maximum stay of 15 days per visit. It is important to note that the 15-day period is non-extendable.
For those intending to visit for purposes other than tourism, such as business or study, the standard visa application process remains in effect. Additionally, if Indian nationals plan to stay for a longer duration, make multiple entries within six months, or require different types of visas, they must obtain the necessary visas through the Iranian representations in India.
