What's your opinion on the idea of new mains test series where questions are set and evaluated by past toppers for upcoming GPSC EXAMS?

DEMOCRATIC BACKSLIDING US supreme court overturned 'abortion' as a constitutional right given in Joe vs Wade verdict and left it on state legislature to decide on the right Challenges in this verdict 1) Rights are expanding and not retreating entity so even if original constitution did not have abortion as a right, it evolved 2) Maternity is a choice, so is bodily autonomy hence it shouldn't be decide by men 3) Pregnancy is closely realated to Right to equality as women are working as lawyer, doctor, executive and may want to delay pregnancy to advance in their career India shows way through MTP act,21 / moratorium on commercial surrogacy / equal age of marriage BALANCING ON BRICS : The recent summit tried the balancing act instead of delivering on its promise of alternative economic bloc for developing countries :NDB, is yet to catch speed as a multilateral lender of standing, China's push to dominate the group and Russia being in economic limbo the group has limitations on what it can achieve LESSON FROM MAHARASHTRA : Political crisis shows that anti defection law is in effective, even counterproductive as 1) Speaker can delay on verdict hence defeating the purpose 2) Money & Muscle power is used to engineer 2/3 defection 3) Voters also don't penalise the defected candidates as the same gets re-elected Let's say even if amendment like time bound verdict & disqualification from next election is introduced then disqualified member can have family member in his seat so power politics will continue The country has only 4000 MLAs and mostly from dynasty & repeated hence 1) Young blood driven by ideology should come to politics 2) Intra party democracy where aspirations of dissident MLAs are addressed WEST STEPS BACK, INDIA SHOWS THE WAY :MTPact,21 PCMA,bill tries to stop vicious cycle of early marriage, poor maternal & child health outcomes : Emergence of India as 'Biomarket' for 'renting a womb' reflects global inequality & lead to commercialisation of motherhood, commodification of women which was against our culture that revered mothers hence banned & only Indian citizen can do it. Medical interventions have brought down MMR from 170 to 103 Political will has increased sex ratio at 1020

SHOCK ABSORBER: Ecologically sensitive zone is the buffer area created around National park, WLS, BR to act as shock absorber by restricting economic activity ( created under EPA ) Recent direction by Supreme court of mandatory demarcation of 1km boundary area has evoked criticism from farmers as threat to their livelihood, especially in Kerala. LET THERE BE DATA: Government should do survey regularly as it forms basis of agile policy The last consumer survey was in 2011-12 hence w/o latest data we don't know consumption pattern ( protein intake, micro-nutrient ) and unable to plan cropping, dietary diversification policy like poshan NO SILVER BULLTE Bipartisan support for strict gun control is a historic moment in US ( more checks like mental health, background ) but issue is still divisive as conservatives sees this as violation of '2nd amendment ' THE NEW WORKPLACE West Bengal government has introduced happy works, a co working space in Kolkata metropolitan for very affordable rates ( less than ₹100) NEW RULES FOR NEW GAME :Games of skills ( poker, rummy ) falls under article 19(1)(g) while games of chance doesn't ( teen patti, roulette ) Since gambling is in state list, some states have instituted blanket ban on online gambling like Tamil Nadu which is unconstitutional as said by Madras High court while struck down the law. While the government has constituted a committee to study the arena, more comprehensive step would be a new law like many countries ieUS, UK which will allow responsible, transparent, safe gaming. Also coordination & cooperation with the companies can ensure self regulations like KYC, SSL encryption, risk flagging, daily& monthly restrictions, self exclusion etc

POLICY NOT DIKTAT :RBI has faced criticism for non consultative policy like crypto ban, willful defaulter policy which has led to judicial interventions The recent Regulatory review authority 2.0 has highlighted it and suggested that consultation, objects&reason statement, and periodic review should be there THE FERTILISER PINCH PREPARING SOIL FOR THE FUTURE SAME SUFFERING :While India has highest arable land in the world India imports fertiliser worth of $25 Bn ( where urea is 50%+, then DAP and the MOP), we also have to import the feedstock like (LNG from Qatar, sulphur, potash) as we are deficient in these resources and lastly we have to give subsidy to farmers hence dual burden ( High import & subsidised sell ) The only possible solution is rationalization of fertiliser and shifting towards organic fertilizer i.e using DAP in wheat & paddy only as other crops don't require high P content Eg. promote SSP Eg. Nano urea Eg. introducing urease & nitrification inhibition compund that will slow the hydrolysis ( ammonia release in atmosphere) and nitrification (subsurface leaching of nitrogen) of urea QUOTE: Power is the glue that can bind ideologically opposed alliances ( shiv Sena )

REGULATING GLOBAL COMMONS WTO agreement on fisheries (AFS) amid 12th ministerial conference is less than perfect but it's a milestone in trade governance. Addresses SDG 14.6 "sustainable fisheries" as AFS prohibits 3 kinds of subsidies 1) illegal, unreported, unregulated (IUU) fishing 2)fishing of already overexploited stocks 3) Fishing on unregulated high seas, it has also given 2 year transition period for countries like India But •No consensus on fisheries in other members waters that contribute to overcapacity and overfishing (OCOF) •Moreover India demanded 25 years transition period as we are yet to exploit 7500 km coastline under our blue economy initiative while developed countries have already exploited their share •Moreover livelihood of 4 million marine farmers can be threatened who are small scale hence doesn't threaten sustainability REFORM AMID CRISIS :The Srilankan government wants to introduce 21st amendment which seeks to reduce power of president and give such powers to PM so PM can be responsible to parliament but amid economic turmoil political consensus will be difficult to build This reform is similar to the 19th amendment in 2015 that ensured independent appointment to election commission, public service, police, finance, human rights, this was brought after decade of authoritarian rule of Rajapakshas but as it happened Rajapakshas again came in power and undo all things through 20th amendment. Now srilankan public wants to end the Rajapakshas domination and wants clean government, we'll have to wait and see. BRICS AFTER UKRAINE Brics has 40% world population, 25% world GDP, 2 fastest emerging economy It was created with agenda of rebalancing global power equation. It has proved its mettle by establishing NDB, CRA but it doesn't have its own payment mechanism, messaging systems that can pose challenge to western financial institutions So cooperation between India-china is the key to success the brics, also the expansion of its membership will infuse vigour in its original agenda MAKKI :China blocking India's bid to designate Makki, chief of Lashkar e toiba under UNSC 1267 committee reflects China's double standards on terrorism

Editorials: TWIN DEFICIT: Persistent high crude oil prices will widen the CAD which in turn will make ruppee weaker and make future imports more costly ( ruppee is also getting weakened due to FPI outflow due to fed tapering ) To counter the inflation caused by high crude prices, government has cut down on excise hence resulting in less revenue hence FISCAl DEFICIT which can lead to crowding out for private sector. ( Solution is rationalization of non capex expenditure ) INFLATION DILEMMA -Hiked interest rate by RBI has little impact on food and fuel inflation but it can lead to suppressed credit growth and may cause recession - But rate hikes are necessary for 'inflation expectations' ( people's expectations of what inflation will be in future ) so in essence people will believe that goods will become cheaper in future hence 'reduce the demand in present ' which will moderate the inflation and the rate hike also gives time for the supply to catch the demand. ISRAEL: :5the election in 3 years The election to knesset is based on proportional representation hence people vote for party & not candidates. So ability to form coalition makes him/her the leader. (It's very normal for Israel's ruling coalition to have 6-8 parties. ) SWEEPING & OPAQUE The rationalization exercise of ncert is aimed at reducing the curriculum load and help students for speedy recovery after COVID But experts argue that proposed changes like deletion of Emergency, Gujarat riots, Protests turned social movements, parts of Mughal & sultanate are Motivated & goes against NEP,2020's mandate of encouraging critical thinking by presenting complexities of diverse social & political process of past NOTE TO STATES: :Centre has directed states to bring its off budget borrowing on to books. As many states have high debt that translates into higher interest payment reducing fiscal space for progressive policies. But recent trend of Populist subsidies ( electricity), rolling back old pension scheme ( rajasthan ) while their revenue stream is depleting ( compensation cess) may cause problem in future hence states must shore up their revenue, reduce non merit subsidies, and bring down debt to manageable levels. WHAT MPC SAYS, WHAT RBI DOES After MPC's statement, RBI governor introduces slew of measures like GSAP, Viable repo auction, RBI's intervention in FOREX market which have Inflationary consequences yet not discussed with MPC hence need of hour is clear communication that ensures that credibility of inflation targeting framework is maintained. OUR ENTWINED VALUES &INTEREST -India economic strategy,2035 -Consulate general in BLR in 2023 to tap in India's startup ecosystem -Joint centre of excellence for critical and emerging technology India & Australia has shown that when we work in partnership results are unprecedented ie Post earthquake evacuation and rehabilitation in TONGA

UN commemorates International day against Hate Speech India: We have been home to all religions of the world be it zorastrian, Tibetan Buddhist or Sikhs this shows our belief in pluralism and tolerance While we belive religiophobia should be countered we can't ignore the rising instances of hatred toward Non-Abrahamic religions as seen in recent attack on gurudwara in Afghanistan hence the selective outrage of OIC & West on India's fringe elements as everyone should condemn all forms of religiophobia everywhere.

Editorials: 1)WHAT WORKS BEST -India is diversifying it's supply chain ie replacing Saudi with Russia as 2nd largest crude importer & buying bulk urea from US instead of middle East This will have 2 impacts first is increased resilience for future supply shocks and second it will force other countries to reduce prices to be competitive 2)A JOLT IN PARIS :After winning presidential election, french President's group called 'ensemble' lost majority in parliament Hence given the fragility of Europe & France it's incumbent to build alliances both social and political for stability 3)LINES IN WATER - FINA, the swimming governing body introduced 'open' category so that trans athletes are not excluded in competition 4) AGNIPATH BETWEEN THE LINES -All major power undertake periodic review of their forces( ie biennial defence white paper of China ) but India doesn't do it hence issue of long term planning stays in limbo India also doesn't have national security strategy doctrine hence seen fumbling response to emerging threats 5)THE RECKLESS BORROWER -Majority of Pakistan debt belongs to China. Compared to other lenders Chinese loans are short term and with higher interest 6)ON JOBS, THE BIG PICTURE -The lates PLFS survey shows reduction in Unemployment to '4.2'(20-21), the trend since 2018 is 5.8 to 4.8 to now 4.2 hence continuous decline in Unemployment means jobs are being created hence more demand in economy and more GDP. Also government intent to add 1 million in 18 months will further boost employment The high hopes of startup to propel India might not be realised as of now as the boom is only in stock market, and with past experience 80-85% startups fold up as unable to scale up their nonviable models creating job loss 8)YOGA, POST COVID -Yoga helps in mental and physical development as it increases GABA chemical that fights anxiety, depression & improve QOL -Ancient text like Bhagwat Gita mentions, Krishna asks Arjun to perform his duties as he was in yoga -healthy mind forms nucleus of healthy society -It also heals body ie arthritis etc •Global centre for traditional medicine in Jamnagar ( Who& Goi) - research in TM & practices •yoga certification board to bring uniformity in quality & skills of trainer •National institute of yoga Yoga aligned with SDG3 of 'healthy lives ' 9) PLASTIC BAN : While plastic under 75 micron is already banned, by year end all SUP under 120 micron will be banned. -CPCB came out with list of banned items ie earbuds,spoon, cups as this are difficult to collect and occupies miniscule market of SUP (95% SUP market is of packaging) -Plastic is made from fossil fuel, stays in environment and degrads into microplastic CASE STUDY: DEVANSH YADAV ( Innovation, family & women led ) Under 'Nasha mukt bharat' campaign arunachal's changlang's opium crisis was addressed by forming women SHG and empowering them to draw out list of all addicts in their home and present the list to gram sabha and then with the approval of gram sabha they would be sent to de: addiction camp and on return will be provided job opportunities like mushroom farming..
