UP Bhulekh 2023-24: Check Land Records, Bhu Naksha, & Khasra Khataun
UP BhuLekh is a platform developed by the Uttar Pradesh residents Revenue Board to digitise land records in Uttar Pradesh and make them available to through a web portal. The government enlisted the assistance of the state NIC in this digitising project, which made land ownership-related information, including 'Khatauni' (Records of Rights), publicly available to everybody. The UP Bhulekh site was created to save you the trouble of having to see a Tehsildar or Patwari whenever he or she has to check a UP land record.

The Last Tree
The Last Tree The sun hung low in the sky, casting an orange hue over the desolate landscape. Once thriving with life, the earth was now a barren wasteland, scorched and lifeless. The air was thick with the smell of decay, a stark reminder of the cost humanity had paid for its recklessness. Amidst this desolation, a single tree stood tall, its leaves rustling softly in the wind, a symbol of hope in a world devoid of it.

Will Yellowstone Park Erupt? . AI-Generated.
Yellowstone National Park is famous for its geysers and hot springs, which exist because the park is located atop a massive super volcano. But Yellowstone isn't due for an eruption anytime soon. Volcanoes do not work in predictable ways, and their eruptions do not occur on predictable schedules. The math does not support the volcano's "overdue" eruption. In terms of big explosions. Researchers from the University of Utah discovered in 2015 that an enormous magma chamber beneath Yellowstone is even larger than previously thought. They discovered additional magma reservoirs, which collectively contained enough molten rock to fill the Grand Canyon eleven times. The expansive magma chambers exert pressure, causing Yellowstone's terrain to rise by 1 to 2 inches per year. Yellowstone, an active volcano with a volcanic explosivity index of 8 (the highest possible), combines geological activity with the risk of catastrophic eruptions.

The Flood; Okavango Delta
The Kalahari undergoes a remarkable transformation into a wildlife haven during the great flood, turning into a living, breathing miracle. The Okavango Delta receives distant rainfall even in the driest season. Hungry quillia flocks scour the floodplains for food, while the grasses have withered, leaving only dormant seeds in the dry sand. Competition for food ensues during the dry season. The unbroken floodplains provide an excellent hunting ground for a cheetah mother with three growing cubs to feed. The cubs are too young to hunt, observe, and learn. The cheetah's speed and agility make feeding the family effortless for now, but challenges will arise when the flood arrives. Survival in this dry season is all about timing, with the leopard embodying stealth and the cheetah embodying speed. The kagelia trees come to life, attracting vervet monkeys and aiding in pollination. The flowers of the kagelia trees brim with sweet nectar, enticing the vervet monkeys to drink and assist in pollination. The flood draws a variety of insect species to a concentrated area, including dragonflies and damselflies, forming one of the largest concentrations of these insects on Earth. Insects feed and mate in this area, with males grasping onto females during mating.

The Wild African Dogs
Efforts to conserve the African wild dog are underway, as this species is both Africa's most efficient hunter and Southern Africa's most rare large carnivore. The African Wildlife Conservation Fund (AWCF) is one organization working to ensure the survival of the African wild dog. In the Sa Valley Conservancy, three wild dog packs are being monitored: splinters pack, mapura pack, and pungu pack. The pungu pack, the newest of the three, is preparing for its first litter, with a 2-year-old male named Otis pairing up with Ura. The pack has moved outside of the Conservancy for the Denning season, and efforts are being made to check on their well-being. The camera is placed to capture the movement of the pack between dens, and challenges are faced in tracking the pack during the evening hunt. 15 healthy pups are being fed by excited mothers, likely a combination of litters from both Loop and Jigsaw. The pups are about 3.5 weeks old, still exclusively drinking milk, and will start eating meat around 5 weeks old. The pups are now starting to eat meat after weeks of suckling, and they rely on two lactating females for feeding. A filming strategy using motorbikes to follow the pack during hunts is being employed. Wild dogs suffocate prey by going for the throat, similar to big cats such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Puppies are given preference during feeding, with adults getting chased away from the carcass. Coloring dogs helps track packs for conservation and protection purposes, and collars provide GPS info to locate packs and monitor for snares and poaching. Identifying dogs by coat markings and taking photos helps reunite packs in case of separation.

The Twin Connection
The Beginning Emma and Emily were born on a rainy night in June, a few minutes apart, but inseparable from the very start. Identical twins, they shared everything: their bright blue eyes, the way their blonde hair curled at the ends, and even a small birthmark on their left shoulders. From the moment they came into the world, it was evident they were bound by something far deeper than mere genetics.
