Mitali k

On May 20, 2025, Mizoram made history by becoming the very first state in India where everyone can read and write! This remarkable achievement was announced by Mizoram’s Chief Minister, Lalduhoma, at a special ceremony in Aizawl. He also revealed that the state has achieved a literacy rate of 98.2%, surpassing the Ministry of Education’s 95% benchmark for full literacy. Mizoram worked hard through a program called ULLAS – Nav Bharat Saaksharta Karyakram (New India Literacy Programme). This initiative, which began in 2022, helps adults learn to read, write, and do basic math. Teachers, students, and volunteers—292 of them—collaborated to teach everyone who previously could not read or write.

Sea Turtles are making a comeback!

Mitali k

Conservationists are celebrating because efforts to protect sea turtles have helped increase their population. Scientists have been studying sea turtle numbers around the world to learn how human activities impact them. A recent study conducted by the IUCN Species Survival Commission Marine Turtle Specialist Group reveals that decades of ongoing conservation efforts have improved the status of the majority of marine turtle populations worldwide. Sea turtles face many threats, including ocean pollution and rising sea temperatures. However, in areas where protection projects have been put in place, sea turtle populations are growing. Still, not all sea turtle species are thriving, and experts say it is important to continue these conservation efforts.

Published in Endangered Species Research, the study titled “Updated Global Conservation Status and Priorities for Marine Turtles” reviewed 48 sea turtle populations across six species worldwide. Over several years, nearly 150 experts from the Marine Turtle Specialist Group, representing 50 countries, came together to evaluate the risks, threats, and conservation needs of these turtles. Surprisingly, the results show that threats to most sea turtle populations have decreased. Now, over 40% of sea turtle groups are considered low risk-low threat, compared to only 23% in 2011. This is a hopeful sign that conservation efforts are working well in many areas. Even though there is still work to do, scientists say this is a real conservation success story.
