Anand Malligavad, a mechanical engineer, gained recognition for single-handedly restoring a 36-acre dried lake in just 45 days. What began as a CSR activity evolved into his life's mission, leading him to leave his job and dedicate himself to revitalizing the city's water resources.

Now an environmental conservationist, Anand has successfully revived seven lakes. His ambitious goal is to restore 45 of Bangalore's water bodies by 2025.

We are thrilled to welcome Anand today to discuss his inspiration, challenges, and the remarkable efforts behind the successful rejuvenation of Bangalore's lakes.

In 1887, the U.S. Government enacted the Dawes Act, a policy designed to break up Native American communal land into individual ownership. This was a direct assault on traditional ways and effectively a land grab, leading many nations to lose over half their ancestral territories.

Despite immense pressure, including threats of starvation and death over six days, the Chiefs of Red Lake firmly rejected the Dawes Act. Their unwavering resolve, driven by a profound love for future generations, strengthened their fight.

This historical resistance continues to inspire. Renee's powerful message today validates and reinforces the ongoing struggle for the Rights of Mother Earth.
