Meet Ellis Spaanderman: The Dutch Woman Cleaning Up Srinagar’s Dal Lake — Alone and Determined

Dutch environment enthusiast Ellis Spaanderman, 69, has taken it upon herself to clean Srinagar’s iconic Dal Lake—by hand.

Her quiet, solo mission has gone viral, inspiring locals to join her fight against plastic pollution.

Known fondly as the “Mother of Dal,” Ellis rejects praise, saying she’s simply cleaning what she loves.

A cyclist and long-time Kashmir resident, Ellis now hopes to raise awareness, encouraging collective responsibility to protect Kashmir’s natural beauty—one plastic bottle at a time.

Pahalgam Terror Elimination: India’s Swift Justice in Operation Mahadev| Oneindia

Pahalgam Terror Elimination was executed with precision and resolve as India’s security forces took down the three terrorists responsible for the brutal April 22 Pahalgam attack. Under Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and Jammu & Kashmir Police eliminated Suleman, Afghani, and Jibran near Srinagar. Forensic tests, Pakistani-made arms, and direct identification confirmed their involvement. The Pahalgam Terror Elimination showcases India’s zero-tolerance stance against terrorism and the government's commitment to justice. In Amit Shah’s words, the message is clear—those who attack innocent lives on Indian soil won’t walk away. Pahalgam Terror Elimination is more than an operation—it's a declaration. #PahalgamTerrorElimination #OperationMahadev #IndiaFightsTerror #JusticeForPahalgam #AmitShahSpeech ~HT.178~PR.282~CA.144~GR.125~
