  • EXCLUSIVE: SHOCKING IMAGES OF CAPE TOWN’S BONE-DRY DAM WHERE ONCE LOCALS USED TO GO BOATING AND WATER SKIING WITH PIX By Magnus News Agency Shocking images show a bone-dry desert where once boats used to sail on a reservoir as drought continues to ravage South Africa. Theewaterskloof Dam once hosted yacht clubs and water skiing but today not even one vessel could be launched on the parched space. Photographer Dirk Theron visited the starved body of water last week and took these frightening images of the dried-up lake which should supply 40 percent of the water to Cape Town’s four million residents. As Dirk’s pictures show, skeletons of fish and muddy pools are much of what remains of the former 480 million cubic metre capacity site. Last week billionaire former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg toured Theewaterskloof as part of his role as UN special Envoy for Climate Action. He warned the reservoir and draught across the Western Cape should act as a wake-up call for the international community on climate change. Despite the drought, which has struck the area for the past few years, government officials in South Africa have been criticised for their handling of the crisis. A ‘Day Zero’ when municipal taps would be turned off has been pushed back from June 4 to July 9 despite chronic shortages continuing. South African Dirk lives just 30 minutes from Theewaterskloof, but said he was stunned by what he found there. He said: “Theewaterskloof dam is one of those places where everybody has a boat and people would go there for the weekend. “A friend of mine used to be a member of the Theewaters sports club, we used to go there all the time water skiing and playing on the water in his boat. “This was a massive, massive body of water. It’s been a few years since last I’ve been there but when I saw it I was shocked to my core. “We all know about the water crisis but standing there and seeing it with your own eyes is so surreal. “I stood on dry ground

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sanjay Pandey in India A 50-year-old Indian man has singlehandedly scraped though hills for a period of two years to make an 8km stretch of road to ensure that he and wife can meet their school-going children more often. Jalandhar Nayak, a small-time farmer from Kandhamal district of east Indian state of Odisha, constructed the first stretch of the road all by himself with just a pick axe and crowbar by working from dawn to dusk since 2016. So how did he stumbled up on the idea? “At the time of birth of our first child, my wife was home. When she went into labour pain, I tried to take her to the nearby health centre. But we couldn't reach there in time and she had to deliver the baby on the way. It was then the idea of building a road struck me first. I thought to myself, if having no roads in the village is causing us so much of problem to us, it would cause the problem to our children, too,” said Nayak, explaining how he stumbled upon the idea of contracting road." According to the Nayaks, the government has been giving assurance of building a road for decades in the area, but they never moved anything on the ground. Jalandhar’s father father who is 80 now, tells about the same hollow assurances that he got from the administration in his youth.   “When my children grew up and started going to school, it would take them three hours one way to go the school trekking though the mountainous terrain. Since they cannot commute to and from the school everyday, we had to get them enrolled in a residential school, a 15km away from home.   Nayak’s children spend six days in the school and return home on seventh day. But trekking though five hills is not a child play, the journey used to make them tired and exhausted. “This made me more determined to tear though the mighty mountains to pave way for my children. I didn't want my children to meet the same fate as mine. Hence, I decided to go ahead with the plan of road construction -- with or withou

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sanjay Pandey in India A 50-year-old Indian man has singlehandedly scraped though hills for a period of two years to make an 8km stretch of road to ensure that he and wife can meet their school-going children more often. Jalandhar Nayak, a small-time farmer from Kandhamal district of east Indian state of Odisha, constructed the first stretch of the road all by himself with just a pick axe and crowbar by working from dawn to dusk since 2016. So how did he stumbled up on the idea? “At the time of birth of our first child, my wife was home. When she went into labour pain, I tried to take her to the nearby health centre. But we couldn't reach there in time and she had to deliver the baby on the way. It was then the idea of building a road struck me first. I thought to myself, if having no roads in the village is causing us so much of problem to us, it would cause the problem to our children, too,” said Nayak, explaining how he stumbled upon the idea of contracting road." According to the Nayaks, the government has been giving assurance of building a road for decades in the area, but they never moved anything on the ground. Jalandhar’s father father who is 80 now, tells about the same hollow assurances that he got from the administration in his youth.   “When my children grew up and started going to school, it would take them three hours one way to go the school trekking though the mountainous terrain. Since they cannot commute to and from the school everyday, we had to get them enrolled in a residential school, a 15km away from home.   Nayak’s children spend six days in the school and return home on seventh day. But trekking though five hills is not a child play, the journey used to make them tired and exhausted. “This made me more determined to tear though the mighty mountains to pave way for my children. I didn't want my children to meet the same fate as mine. Hence, I decided to go ahead with the plan of road construction -- with or withou

  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sanjay Pandey in India A 50-year-old Indian man has singlehandedly scraped though hills for a period of two years to make an 8km stretch of road to ensure that he and wife can meet their school-going children more often. Jalandhar Nayak, a small-time farmer from Kandhamal district of east Indian state of Odisha, constructed the first stretch of the road all by himself with just a pick axe and crowbar by working from dawn to dusk since 2016. So how did he stumbled up on the idea? “At the time of birth of our first child, my wife was home. When she went into labour pain, I tried to take her to the nearby health centre. But we couldn't reach there in time and she had to deliver the baby on the way. It was then the idea of building a road struck me first.
