MY name is Srividya. I did my schooling in Kalpakkam, near Chennai.

"I lived With My Mother's Corpse for a Day"

My father was working as a telex operator at the Department of Atomic Energy, Kalpakkam. My mother was a housewife.

I studied in a co-education school. While studying in the fifth standard, a peon tried to molest me. My classmate had fever, so he was resting in the classroom. As soon as the classmate saw the peon calling me, he asked me to run away.

But, by then, I was in the peon's clutches. However, I managed to free myself. This happened in 1979.

Agriculture Through The Prism Of Water

If an elephant fills in 85% of a room, its occupants are unwittingly conditioned to engage only with the little leftover space. Celebrities posing to close a dripping tap reminds me of this situation. If India has to conserve water for future-gen, apart from striving to \"Catch-The-Rain\", it also has to do effective demand-side management of water. Accounting for 85-89% water usage in India, agriculture, the elephant in the room, is to be specifically targeted for this, not the dripping pipe.
