$300 billion CoP29 climate deal 'insufficient' : Developing nations
The $300 billion target adopted at COP29, not only missed the mark but also risks undermining the very goals it aims to achieve
Climate finance is not just a matter of numbers; it is a matter of justice.
The global South has contributed the least to the climate crisis but bears the burnt of its impacts.
For CoP to succeed it must put equity at the heart of its agenda. Anything less is a betrayal of the promise of climate action.

In a remarkable act of bravery, nine-year-old Saurav Kumar from Bihar's Sheikhpura district saved three young girls from drowning in a pond.
On 8 August 2024, while grazing his buffaloes, Saurav, a Class 3 student, witnessed a terrifying scene: four young girls struggling in a nearby pond.
Without a moment’s hesitation, the courageous boy plunged into the deep water, risking his own life to save the drowning children.
Saurav managed to rescue three girls — Muskan, Mehar, and Preeti Kumari — bringing them to safety. Tragically, despite his heroic efforts, one child could not be saved.
Saurav's heroic actions have garnered widespread praise, highlighting the courage and compassion of this young boy.
In recognition of his selfless act, Saurav has been honoured with the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar for Bravery by President Droupadi Murmu.
