Answers
NGO Greenpeace India has appointed Ravi Chellam; रवि चेल्लम
as its executive director
Answer: The correct answer is Ravi Chellam.
Explanation:
NGO Greenpeace India appointed environmentalist Ravi Chellam as its executive director. The appointment was made on 20 January 2016.
Ravi Chellam is an environmentalist who worked with United Nations Development Programme, Wildlife Institute of India, Wildlife Conservation Society (India Program), Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment and Madras Crocodile Bank Trust. He assumed the role of governance in various conservation organisations.
He replaced former Executive Director Samit Aich, who resigned in June last year. His resignation came after the mishandling of two sexual harassment cases by the organisation.
