MP: Asia’s oldest elephant dies at Panna Tiger Reserve Vatsala, the Asia's oldest female elephant, who earned names -- Dadi Maa, Nani Maa in her life journey of more than 100 years from Kerala to Madhya Pradesh, died at the Panna Tiger Reserve (PTR) on Tuesday. The oldest and most beloved elephant of Panna, who suffered multiple organ failure and was under observation of the veterinarians, took her last breath, a senior forest official told IANS. With her death, a chapter of love, legacy, and wildlife dedication came to an end. Known affectionately as 'Dadi' and 'Dai Maa' among forest staff and wildlife lovers, Vatsala was more than 100-years-old and had been battling illness for a long time. Vatsala was more than just an elephant. She was an institution within the Panna Tiger Reserve (PTR). Famous for her maternal instincts, she became a lifelong caregiver to elephant calves and even served as a midwife, assisting in the birth of new members of the elephant herd. She spent her final days at Hinauta camp, where she was lovingly cared for by forest staff. Upon her death, PTR Field Director Anjana Suchita Tirkey, Deputy Director Mohit Sood, and wildlife veterinarian Sanjeev Gupta rushed to the site. Her last rites were conducted with solemn respect at the camp. Born in the Nilambur forests of Kerala, Vatsala began her journey as a working elephant in the timber trade. In 1971, she was brought to Hoshangabad in Madhya Pradesh and later transferred to the Panna Tiger Reserve in 1993. For a decade, she played a critical role in tracking tigers in PTR, contributing significantly towards conservation efforts. She retired in 2003, but her work never truly stopped. She dedicated her remaining years to nurturing younger elephants, offering warmth and companionship rarely seen in the animal kingdom. Vatsala was tourist favourite and undoubtedly, she was acknowledged the pride of Panna. She was a key attraction for domestic and international tourists alike. Her gentle nature, iconic presence, and emotional bond with caretakers made her a symbol of PTR's commitment to ethical wildlife care. Several tourists, who had fond memories during their visit to PTR and especially with Vatsala, shared those moments on social media along with video and photographs with her. Vatsala's passing away marks a profound loss—not just to Panna Tiger Reserve, but to India's conservation community at large. BJP MP from Panna Assembly constituency in Chhatarpur district, Brijendra Patap Singh, expressed his condolences on Vatsala's demise, saying that her dignity and affection were embedded in Panna Tiger Reserve. "The demise of the world's oldest elephant 'Vatsala', who had travelled a glorious journey of wildlife nearly for more than 100 years, is an emotional moment for the people of Panna," Singh wrote on X.

Centre sets ball rolling for biggest round of oil & gas hunt with ‘Urja Varta’ meet on July 17 Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas Hardeep Singh Puri on Tuesday said that he was looking forward to engaging with ministers, officials and industry leaders at Urja Varta 2025 at Bharat Mandapam on 17 July in the run-up to India’s Round X of exploration & production bidding for oil and gas blocks, which is the biggest globally. The oil and gas blocks being offered under the Open Acreage Licensing Programme (OALP) have already garnered attention from global and domestic energy players, and Round X is expected to set new benchmarks for participation and investment, the minister said. The Petroleum Ministry has invited feedback and suggestions on Draft Petroleum & Natural Gas Rules, Model Revenue Sharing Contract (MRSC) & Petroleum Lease before 17 July 2025 as part of the country’s focus to accelerate oil & gas. These are a series of pathbreaking policy reforms that are being implemented to promote exploration & production in the oil and gas sector, the minister said. “These changes to increase the ease of doing business for our oil & gas exploration and production (E&P) operators are being made after stakeholder consultation at every level,” the minister explained in a post on X. The Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act, 1948, was amended in March 2025, and new PNG rules have come within 3 months in the run up to OALP Round X which is the largest such exploration and production bidding round globally as part of PM Modi’s vision for the sector, the minister said. To further enhance transparency and stakeholder engagement, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has invited public feedback on the Draft Petroleum & Natural Gas Rules, Model Revenue Sharing Contract (MRSC) and Petroleum Lease documents. Stakeholders can submit their suggestions and comments to png-rules@dghindia.gov.in before July 17, 2025. “This is a great time for entrepreneurs and industry leaders to look at oil and gas exploration in India. It has never been easier, faster, or more profitable to invest in India’s energy future,” Puri said.

When PM Modi was welcomed at Brasilia’s Alvorada Palace with an Indian devotional song Prime Minister Narendra Modi was welcomed with a special performance of Ram Bhajan at Brasilia's Alvorada Palace besides the grand ceremonial welcome ahead of the official talks with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal took to X to share a 2.48-minute video and wrote: "Upon arrival at the Alvorada Palace in Brasilia ahead of official talks, PM @narendramodi was welcomed with a special performance of ‘Ram Bhajan’." In the video, classical singer Meeta Ravindra Kumar Karahe is seen presenting a devotional song to welcome PM Modi. PM Modi, accompanied by President Lula da Silva, can be seen appreciating and enjoying the special performance, softly clapping his hands along with the tunes of the 'Bhajan'. Meeta Ravindra Kumar Karahe, speaking to IANS, said: "I met the Prime Minister yesterday (Monday/Brazil time) evening and simply greeted him with a 'Namaste' from a distance. I told him from afar that I would be singing for him the next day. The invitation I received was actually from the Brazilian government." She described the people of Brazil "quite similar" to Indians, majorly in terms of behaviour and hospitality. She said that despite living far from her homeland, Brazil -- which respects her native country a lot -- feels like "a second India". "I began training in classical music since childhood... from the age of 10-11. In the invitation that I received from the Brazilian government to perform, it was mentioned that President Lula wants someone from the home country of PM Modi should perform a devotional song that he likes," she told IANS. Prime Minister Modi on Tuesday was given a warm welcome by Brazil President Lula da Silva at the Alvorada Palace in Brasilia, as he began a State Visit to the country following his participation in the BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro. During their talks, both leaders agreed to boost the cooperation between the two countries across all sectors. PM Modi described President Lula da Silva as 'Chief Architect of the Strategic Partnership between India and Brazil', underlining that the Brazilian leader has played a significant role in "deepening our relations". "Held fruitful talks with President Lula, who has always been passionate about India-Brazil friendship. Our talks included ways to deepen trade ties and also diversify bilateral trade. We both agree that there is immense scope for such linkages to thrive in the coming times," PM Modi wrote on X, also shared pictures of his meeting with the Brazilian President. "Clean energy, sustainable development and overcoming climate change were also prominent topics of discussion in our talks. Other areas where we will work even more closely include defence, security, AI and agriculture. India-Brazil cooperation in space, semiconductors and DPI will benefit our people," PM Modi wrote on X. During a joint press statement with the Brazilian President, PM Modi said: "I sincerely thank my friend, President Lula, for the warm welcome in Rio and Brasilia. We are truly touched by the beauty of the Amazon and your kindness. Today, being honoured with the Brazil's highest national award by the President of Brazil is a moment of great pride and emotion not just for me, but for 140 crore Indians. I sincerely thank the President, the Brazilian government, and the people of Brazil for this honour." He said: "My friend President Lula is the Chief Architect of the Strategic Partnership between India and Brazil. He has played a significant role in deepening our relations. Every meeting with him has inspired me to work harder for the progress and well-being of both our nations. I dedicate this honour to his strong commitment to India and to our enduring friendship."
