06 ✅The Indian Himalayan Region (IHR) is vital for India's water resources and ecosystem services, yet the ongoing development model threatens its ecological and economic health.
✅Recent Supreme Court judgments advocate a rights-based approach to development, emphasizing sustainable practices and balancing the rights of people and nature.
✅Massive construction projects, such as hydroelectric power stations and road widening, are detrimental to the IHR's natural resources and violate environmental norms.
✅The National Disaster Management Authority's assessment of the 2023 Himachal Pradesh floods attributes the disaster to unregulated construction and loss of green cover.
✅The Supreme Court recognizes the right to development and the right to be free from the adverse impacts of climate change, linking these to fundamental rights under Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution
✅There is a pressing need to align development aspirations in the IHR with scientific principles and the rights of both people and nature. | 3 | 0 | Loading... |

11 🔆Project Akashteer
It is a cutting-edge initiative designed to automate air defense control and reporting processes by digitizing them.
It is developed by Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) as part of the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiative.
It aims to deliver an unprecedented level of situational awareness and control for the force to ensure the safety of friendly aircraft and engage hostile aircraft in contested airspace.
It will enable monitoring of low level airspace over the battle areas of Indian Army and effectively control the Ground Based Air Defence Weapon Systems.
📍Sarang systems:
It is an advanced Electronic Support Measure system for helicopters of the Indian Navy.
It is designed and developed indigenously by Defence Electronics Research Laboratory, Hyderabad under the programme Samudrika. | 11 | 0 | Loading... |

15 Success of Montreal Protocol: the most successful global climate treaty
Researchers indicate a significant reduction in the ozone hole’s size since 2000, attributing it to global efforts to limit the use of chlorofluorocarbons and other harmful gases.
Projections suggest complete healing of Northern Hemisphere and mid-latitude ozone by the 2030s, followed by the Southern Hemisphere in the 2050s, and Polar Regions by 2060.
Decrease in the impact of Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) on Earth’s energy balance since 2021, five years earlier than expected.
HCFCs, compounds, notably HCFC-22, the most abundant, have declined significantly.
HCFC-22, commonly used as a refrigerant, possesses a Global Warming Potential (GWP) thousands of times higher than carbon dioxide (CO2).
Minor declines in HCFC-141b, the second most abundant, used as a blowing agent in foam production.
India has successfully phased out HCFC-141b under ODS Regulation and Control Amendment Rules, 2014, aligning with its commitment to the Montreal Protocol for Ozone Layer Depletion. | 4 | 0 | Loading... |
16 #StudyWithVajiram | ➡️The United Nations has said 2025 will be designated the ‘International Year of Quantum Science and Technology’. It said the initiative will be year-long, worldwide, and that it will be observed through activities at all levels aimed at increasing public awareness of the importance of quantum science and applications.
➡️2025 marks the centenary of German physicist Werner Heisenberg's landmark paper. This paper reinterpreted adjustments in classical mechanics to address quantum phenomena, laying the foundation for quantum mechanics. | 6 | 0 | Loading... |

18 🔘Genetically Modified Crops
▫️About
- Genetic modification involves adding specific DNA to a plant's genome.
- Creates transgenic crops with new or enhanced traits.
🔹Objectives
- Increase crop yield.
- Enhance herbicide tolerance.
- Improve nutritional value.
- Provide resistance to diseases and drought.
▫️Global Cultivation
- Leading countries: USA, Brazil, Argentina, India, Canada.
- Major GM crops: Soybean, maize, cotton, canola.
🔹GM Crops in India
- Bt cotton: Only approved GM crop (90% of India's cotton acreage).
- Ht Bt cotton: Resistant to glyphosate.
- DMH-11 mustard: Recommended for high yield.
- Golden rice: Enhanced with Vitamin A.
▫️Concerns
- High cost of GM seeds.
- Non-viable offspring from GM seeds.
- Insect-resistant crops may harm non-target species.
- Intermixing with natural plants affects intrinsic values.
🔹GM Crop Regulation
- Statutory Provisions
- Governed by the Rules for Manufacture, Use, Import, Export, and Storage of Hazardous Microorganisms, 1989, under the Environment Protection Act, 1986.
- Statutory Bodies
- Genetic Engineering Appraisal Committee (GEAC) under MoEF&CC.
- Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee (RDAC).
- Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBSC).
- Review Committee on Genetic Manipulation (RCGM).
- State Biotechnology Coordination Committee (SBCC).
🔹Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (2000)
- Aims to protect biodiversity from risks posed by living modified organisms due to biotechnology.
- India is a signatory. | 5 | 0 | Loading... |
19 🔘Walrus Death From Bird Flu In Arctic
In News
A researcher from the Norwegian Polar Institute, Christian Lydersen, reported the first case of a walrus dying from bird flu on Hopen Island in the Svalbard archipelago.
About
▪️Around six dead walruses were found in the Svalbard islands, located 1,000 kilometres away from the North Pole.
▪️Tests conducted at a German laboratory confirmed the presence of the bird flu virus in the walrus, although it was unclear whether it was the H5N1 or H5N8 strain.
▪️The discovery has raised concerns among researchers, as walruses tend to congregate during the summer when the ice melts.
▪️While bird flu primarily spreads through avian hosts like ducks and geese, mammals can also become infected by consuming infected birds.
▪️There have been previous cases of sea lions and fur seals also falling victim to the disease.
▪️There is also a risk of a polar bear consuming an infected walrus corpse, as bird flu has already killed one polar bear in Alaska.
▪️Researchers urge for continued monitoring of the situation to prevent further spread of the virus among marine mammal populations. | 4 | 0 | Loading... |
