I keep wondering why India, with millions of non-data users, still doesn’t offer dedicated call-only plans especially for senior citizens and underage users. Not everyone needs data, yet people are pushed into buying data-inclusive plans because there’s no alternative. Why force

This is an amazing story by @prasen_yadav whose cover story in National Geographic is worth a read. Prasenjeet is the first Indian to make the cover, and take the pictures and write the piece. The jasoosi on the black tiger genetics was done by @uramakri team.
Explore how science meets storytelling in conservation! Geneticist @uramakri and photographer @prasen_yadav reveal hidden lives of India’s tigers through genetics, field ecology, and visual narratives. 🗓️ 21 Nov | 7 PM IST | Virtual Register: https://t.co/8fZKLT6DAI

when you now launch the @canva app it opens the templates section and not your home page . as a marketer-great update. as a user- even though i like that i get to see really pretty templates, most of the times it is annoying.
