कहते हैं जिसने प्रेमचंद नहीं पढ़ा उसने हिन्दुस्तान नहीं पढ़ा। प्रेमचंद ने 14 उपन्यास व 300 से अधिक कहानियाँ लिखीं। उन्होंने अपनी सम्पूर्ण कहानियों को 'मानसरोवर' में संजोकर प्रस्तुत किया है। इनमें से अनेक कहानियाँ देश-भर के पाठ्यक्रमों में समाविष्ट हुई हैं, कई पर नाटक व फ़िल्में बनी हैं जब कि कई का भारतीय व विश्व की अनेक भाषाओं में अनुवाद हुआ है। अपने समय और समाज का ऐतिहासिक संदर्भ तो जैसे प्रेमचंद की कहानियों को समस्त भारतीय साहित्य में अमर बना दे...

Hills and mountains play a critical role in sustaining global biodiversity, freshwater resources, cultural heritage, and ecological balance. Found in over 80% of the world’s countries, these landscapes offer indispensable services not only to their immediate inhabitants but also to populations far beyond. Nowhere is this more evident than in South and Southeast Asia—regions home to some of the planet’s most diverse mountain ecosystems and cultures. Yet these valuable ecosystems are increas...
