4 more Indian sites added to Ramsar list as wetlands of international importance

Four more Indian sites — two each from Haryana and Gujarat –have been recognised as wetlands of international importance under the Ramsar Convention, taking the number of such sites in the country to 46, the Union Environment Ministry said Saturday.

According to the ministry, for the first time, two wetlands in Haryana Sultanpur National Park in Gurgaon and Bhindawas Wildlife Sanctuary in Jhajjar — have been included in the Ramsar list. The aim of the Ramsar list is “to develop and maintain an international network of wetlands which are important for the conservation of global biological diversity and for sustaining human life through the maintenance of their ecosystem components, processes and benefits”.

Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav tweeted, “PM Shri @narendramodi ji’s concern for the environment has led to overall improvement in how India cares for its wetlands. Happy to inform that four more Indian wetlands have got Ramsar recognition as wetlands of international importance.” “Thol and Wadhwana from Gujarat and Sultanpur and Bhindawas from Haryana have made the cut for Ramsar recognition. The number of Ramsar sites in India is now 46,” he added. Haryana’s Bhindawas Wildlife Sanctuary is a human-made freshwater wetland. It is also the largest in Haryana.

Over 250 bird species use the sanctuary throughout the year as a resting and roosting site. The site supports more than 10 globally threatened species including the endangered Egyptian Vulture, Steppe Eagle, Pallas’s Fish Eagle, and Black-bellied Tern. The Sultanpur National Park in the state Haryana supports more than 220 species of resident, winter migratory and local migratory waterbirds at critical stages of their life cycles. More than 10 of these are globally threatened, including the critically endangered sociable lapwing, and the endangered Egyptian Vulture, Saker Falcon, Pallas’s Fish Eagle and Black-bellied Tern.

Vivian reveals Chahat has unhygienic habits

In the new promo shared by the makers, Vivian was seen telling Alice about Chahat’s habits. Vivian said that Chaahat had used the washroom and was the last to leave. He said that the poop was lying around even on the floor and the toilet seat was not flushed. It was Karan Veer who cleaned the mess.

‘Mere upar jhootha ilzaam lagaana mat’

Alice then told Chahat about the washroom situation. Chahat denied the accusations and said that she only took the shower and left without using the toilet. Next, she was seen in the kitchen area, where she called out Vivian for making baseless accusations at her. She said, “Gandagi khud failao aur mera naam laga do! Itne guts ho na directly baat kiya karo. Log le jaake mat pucha karo. Mere upar jhootha ilzaam lagaana mat Vivian Dsena. Jhootha insaan (You do all this and blame it on me. If you have guts then tell me directly. Don’t ask people. Don’t make false accusations Vivian. Liar)!”

Fans commented on the post, and seemed to take the side of Vivian. “Chahat we know you are right and he’s unnecessarily targeting you since day 1,” said a fan. Another said, “Just to make Chahat look bad how can someone say these things, he’s been bullying her since day 1, Vivian is lying it is so clear and he wants to show Chahat as the negative one. I support chahat here.”
