My response to the editorial ‘Together & apart, animals in a human world’ (@IndianExpress, May 23) ‘Long haul’ is, after all, a profoundly human luxury. The rest of the living world does not operate on such indulgent timelines. #wildlifeconservation indianexpress.com/article/op…

The question that lingers is not simply whether we will repeat the past. We are repeating it. The more unsettling question is whether there will even be anyone left to build museums for the future. scroll.in/article/1092219/ho… Arefa Tehsin writes

My column in @IndianExpress on the #Aravallis and shared consciousness.
#ExpressOpinion | "The Aravallis are old. Old enough to know better than to expect gratitude. Older than the Himalayas, older than our arguments. The low hills with no interest in grandeur. That, perhaps, is their biggest mistake." Writes: @ATehsin indianexpress.com/article/op…
