  • Adieu to a True Gandhian Inspiring Are Those Who Dedicate a Lifetime to Keep Traditional Knowledge Alive
    Adieu to a True Gandhian Inspiring are those who dedicate a lifetime to keep traditional knowledge alive In him lives a spirit, of quiet service, that once existed freely in our politics and our activism, a spirit that has been completely excised from one sphere and remains gravely threatened in the other ~ Ramachandra Guha Anupam Mishra (1948-2016) was a Gandhian, author, journalist, environmentalist, and water conservationist who dedicated his life for promoting water conservation, water management and traditional rainwater harvesting techniques. He passed away in the early hours of 19 December, 2016 in Delhi – our sincere tribute to the visionary. He was born in Wardha, Maharashtra in 1948. Mishra's engagement with the environment came early - his father Bhawani Prasad Mishra, a Gandhian poet-author and environmentalist, was associated with the Anupam Mishra Gandhi Peace Foundation (GPF) since its inception in 1964. After (1948–2016) completing his Master's in Hindi literature from Delhi University in 1969, Mishra decided to follow in his father's footsteps. He worked at the Gandhi Peace Foundation in New Delhi in varying capacities. He served as the editor of Gandhi Marg from 1992 to 1995, and thereafter also revived the journal in 2006 and had been sustaining it ever since. सℂकड़ोहज़ारⴂ तलब अचानक शूꅍय से , प्रकट नहĂ ए थे। इसके पीछे एक Working with Chandi Prasad Bhatt, he was one of the early chroniclers of the Chipko movement that flourished through the 1970s in Uttarakhand, इकाई थी बनवाने वालⴂ कीतो दहाई , and published Chipko movement: Uttarakhand women's bid to save थी बनाने वालⴂ की। यह इकाईदहाई , forest wealth in 1978.
