a shop in the largest market called the gossiper monday in delhi. the state government has ordered a temporary shutdown of this market to prevent the spread of bird flu. in the past few days the indian media was flooded with pictures and reports of various breeds of birds dying in different parts of the country crews were dropping dead trees and corpses of ducks were found floating in water samples were collected from numerous sites which just a quarter to from what you also know when i was avian influenza are usually gets transmitted during the course season from my greatest species of birds to domestic birds including poultry and wild birds multiple states in the country so far have confirmed the outbreak of this disease as india is still dealing with the corona virus pandemic and the discovery of new variants the outbreak of the bird flu has caused fresh concerns among people. amid this scare the poultry industry has

been hit the hardest with the delhi government banning the import of live chicken and putting a halt on the gospel markets operations. this move have affected the likelihood of poultry traders and his business partner less than a year after the 90 ban to make and lockdowns caused a huge drop in demand. slowly managed to resume about 70 percent of our work but now game the work in tag. and you're not earning anything you're having to be the labor cost our households are suffering. is shot says that shutting the market was an overly hasty move. his views are echoed by veterinarian professor kimmel who says that there has never been a case of but if you are transmitting to humans in the country and that poultry is safe to conceal if handled and cooked properly the 1st case of bird flu in india

happened in 2006 since then every year there is an outbreak. understand this year there is more panic because not only the country but the entire world has been dealing with cold with 19 pandemic and then there is also rumors of flu on social media there just like i don't know why it is this why this may also get transmitted to humans by consuming portree or eggs people are just frightened. it shut says he had thought that traders like him would make up for the losses they suffered during the lock down in the winter season when demand for 40 products usually rises but this sudden hiatus has dashed his hopes. it will take about 2 months for poultry market to get back on track. it will take no time for the prices to stabilize the people are already cautious of the don't know why research and now with the bird flu might not want to take risk by consuming to and this dying. for treat us

like in the past year had been a tough one the new year hasn't been any better. but he's desperately hoping his business going to cover in the coming months. and in relief for them traders like him the delhi government has just announced that there was a port poultry market can now reopened but for more on the rising cases of bird flu in india i'm joined by i did a book correspondent when you got your degree in delhi when you don't post the government responding to these rising is. well the indian government on its box has been repeatedly trying to emphasize to people that book 2 or even flu is something that happens in the country every year during the winter season then the then the migrating species of birds make their way through the country and they are trying to show people that this is something that happens every hour and there's nothing to be worried about the state governments do operate taking certain decisions of their own like. which are banning the import of like chicken from other affected

areas and as you know the delhi government did get out of the shutdown of biggest chicken market for some time but it has just announced that it can reopen with certain precautions. so the government is trying to assure people but people are short are they afraid. i want to be afraid but yes they are a little concerned which can be called an offer effect of dealing with a pandemic for almost a year now but there are the good part of it i don't fear them they're fine to switch off i question of people that as long as you maintain hygiene as long as you take precautions there's nothing to be what about as long as you cook for example what you are that's probably nothing is going to happen. if you talk about corona virus or pandemic and india is beginning its vaccine rollout from a subsidy will be affected by these birds who kisses. does not look like i mean do that 2 separate things that are a lot begins on 16 john gray saturday and the 4th round of the rollout with

actually radicalizing health workers and it are almost 89 sites which have been chosen for this only in the national capital of private and government hospitals the 2nd down with focus on other frontline locals afterwards the pride will go to senior citizens people who are about 50 years of age or people with cool moment it is it's only off of this list is completed when the rest of the population will be at mr dulac. and of course we'll be following along this vaccination program which is going to be one of the world's largest i'm going to have more reports on this but thank you so much for this at the moment when you're out on the beat in delhi. in cambodia are the toneless sustained generations of fishermen but the competition of natural and manmade changes are already impacting neighborhoods. cambodia's tunnel a sap one of the biggest inland fisheries on earth more than

a 1000000 people rely on this vast like for their livelihoods once renowned for its abundance of fish extensive damming up stream and climate change have taken their toll on the ecosystem. the way they do battle here are facing difficulties because the water is low and there are no fish so people on the lake have to change their way of life if they have lots of children maybe they'll have to work on shore at a construction site or in a factory because the lake is running out of fish. the lakes rich ecology is sustained by a rare seasonal reversal during the dry season the lake drains into the mekong river when the rains come in may the powerful flow of the mekong pushes water back into town by sap swelling the lakes volume by up to 5 times but last year water levels were down 25 percent from averages same just 20 years ago.

whole the main challenge for our fishing community is climate change. for the past 2 years the water levels from the mekong river have changed dramatically. but. as ton lace up dries up so too do the incomes of thousands of families. fishermen like me who lives on the lake depends on water fish and forest while the 3 are running out what can we hope for. faced with low fish stocks the villages of coach ivanka are forced to grow crops to supplement their living. one way the forest here used to be so dense. but now the trees are gone and people grow chilies here to make money because they can't catch fish during the dry season

they get. more than flow in the tunnel asap putting away of life under threat. the sport of the perfect physique and like any sport it comes with its own challenges but one female chinese bodybuilder has faced more than most. whose disability made her the target of bullies is now an inspiration for many. she's a former paralympian turned. grey you know as achievements have won her many fans on social media not to mention the judges if bodybuilding competitions not always analogous i never imagined i could get 1st place it's possible i achieved this not because of my professionalism or muscles but because of my confidence and bravery to stand on the stage and show the best of myself to everyone. gray's social media followers regularly tune in to watch her workouts the attention hasn't always been

positive gray says she's been denied work because of having the wrong image after she lost her leg in a road accident at age 7 she was relentlessly bullied at school. they called me a cripple our 3 legged cat but most of the time it was abusive language like that sometimes there was physical abuse too the 1st time they made me fall i cried i'm out but then i got used to it and i thought you can bully me however you want but i'll be fine as long as i have a brave heart. nearly 3 decades on gray says the accident has shaped her is a person. many people think that feat is unkind to me but i don't think so. i thank god for having these hardships why do i say that because of this i grew up it made my heart stronger and made me who i am today that. within the bodybuilding community way

still encounters some discrimination. she's proved before the doubters won't hold her back i think. that's it for those of course more our website did not call for what is sure we live in now with images from india where one of the largest religious festivals in the world. is underway in the devotees are gathering in the northern city of hudud was. in the ganges river distancing in the reading of masts is barely visible at a dime when india as the 2nd highest. in the world emerges from part of the we're back again on monday.

i was issued when i arrived here i slept with 6 people in a room. it was hard i was from there. i even got white haired. learning the german language help me out on this gets me and create opportunity to entrap let's say you want to do their story. fighting for a lot of information for margaret. jewish life in germany can be traced back 1700 years reason enough for a special anniversary celebration in 2021 that highlights the contributions of jews and jewish culture to society over that time well we'll learn more about it and also coming up. french harpist executor master has endeavored to free his

instrument from clichés and to broaden its once limited concert repertoire. welcome to the show unofficial addict from the year 321 issued by the roman emperor constantine the great gave permission for a jew to be appointed to the city council in cologne the 1st written evidence of jewish life in the area that we now call germany and important evidence of the coexistence of different religions at that time 700 years later an anniversary year aims to let jewish culture in all its diversity shine.

and installation of the jewish museum in berlin that. the big anniversary is being celebrated with events throughout the year here there's a new permanent exhibition focusing on 700 years of jewish life in germany. you might say the central theme is the relationship between jews and jewish society and the dynamic between longing and exclusion. in the 18th century radical change prompted by the enlightenment stimulated a life of the exchange of ideas between writers and philosophers jews and known jews in science and culture max and physicist albert einstein just 2 examples of jews who had a major impact on german society. if you look at world war one lots of

jews fought as soldiers and at the time that was a sign that they had become part of society because they really felt german. food. from the beginning of the nazi dictatorship jews were systematically excluded from society disenfranchised persecuted forced into exile and murdered before 933 around half a 1000000 jews lived in germany after 945 there were only a few 1000 it remains a blight on german society. of course just a very important point in jewish history in germany and you know all of europe but what's new in the current exhibition is that it's no longer presented as the of that history. and. that's because of

a resurgence of jewish life in germany since the 1990 s. jews have been coming from russia. iran and even israel today there are more than 200000 jews living in germany. and joining me now from cologne is on the way she's a pianist and entrepreneur and currently managing director of the association 700 years of jewish life in germany and co organizer of this anniversary year welcome mr cole what. we just heard over 200000 jews in germany but sadly they are facing increasing levels of anti semitism with that synagogue shooting in holland in 2900 glaring example how significant or crucial even is a celebration like this in this context. yeah this is very crucial specially after these events i mean if. someone has an. older than once

us 1700 years it's like a pandemic virus it existed before it exists after the terrible attack on holland and the jewish people here in germany we felt that. his whole time i mean i personally grew up here was always there and the obvious you know we saw how this. thinking that anti-semitism in the minds can turn is actually kind of turns on physical violence so now it's very very important. to work on that 1700 years of jewish life here in germany and yet many jewish customs are still not very well known here how do you hope with this anniversary year to make jewish life and for and jewish intellectual history really more tangible to germans. this isn't very complex issue it is just 76 years out of the shah and germany still has a kind of a theatrical culture off remember owns and and morial. and

people here naturally i'm all aware of dead and alive jews. and this is not so surprising because many people never talked to a jew here in germany in person and it's also very out they meet one on the street . and for many the only way to learn about this is in schools and what you mostly learn in schools locky is about the jewish religion is about how to use well of course in the sheil which is very very important to learn and also about the growing and isn't semite as and in the society but it is very important but you cannot reduce reuse jewish life to that shines and all that. and this is why we have a new approach actually. which we're trying to roll out this year and what is that new approach you spoke earlier about empathy. yes that's very important because if

i mean we have now it will set 200000 some estimate 150000 jews actually living here in germany around 100000 are registered as to 2 jewish to the jewish community this is like them terry come they tell that we have and we are all different we have it we are loud and we want to be part of the society now. most people as i said don't know us and if you want to get to know your neighbor it's one way to go and to say you read the c.v. and to learn about him but i don't think this is enough to develop this and get them to these very important because otherwise you will never get rid of the serial types and yet our approach actually yet very sensitive issues there but obviously a lot of joy to impart give us a quickly an idea of the international context for this anniversary are you hoping it will resonate with jews outside of germany and how they perceive jewish life here yes i think the shock i mean. brutally said germany

is the inventor of the shying away of the systematic killing of jews we have to face and a lot of jews like you know of my surroundings of personal things of all look at them how jews and non jews live together in job and i think it is an international importance and most of the jewish people here in germany a family outside of the country so i think for us it's very important but also for the jones society itself and i think anti semitism is not a job problem it's a european problem it's a worldwide problem. as i said append i mean exciting it's very important to see what it doesn't say thank you very much for joining us celebrating 1700 years of jewish life in germany and i call that in cologne. thank you. well the harp is an instrument that comes with some strong associations not only is it difficult to lug around but its delicate music has long been synonymous with angelic nymphs or young girls with long flowing hair and in the romantic period it

even became a salon instrument but remained strongly gendered which is why french harpist exempted domestica is credited with revolutionising its repertoire. so weird to me stuart wants to change the popular image of the heart. with the heart has always been seen as a sign on instrument that's not so up to date it was supposed to be a women has demanded of me but the instrument it does have a clearly defined gender for him. it's definitely feminine. does his instrument have a name. and he's been a. know i'm pragmatic and i'm often unfaithful because i can't take my own instrument with me. the most and has been kept on writing his

fans for years with classical pieces pop melodies and even improvised film soundtracks. it all began with a crush on his music teacher. as if very exacting but i liked her and really wanted her to like me so i was very happy to practice. and practice he did a lot. hardly strong for g.q. though instruments demands a lot of passion and dedication. to minister almost shows very different path in competitive sports.

can try to choose between an international competition for the heart and growing competition i chose the rowing initially and was then disappointed because i had to trade a whole. are you saying. this is. just music. in munich and then. there is only a limited amount of music written. by a musician known as the paganini of the heart. seems to have a future. creasing really popular choice of instrument among children. because i'm finding it difficult to keep up with demand it's much easier to rent
