This image has been taken from,  Digital-Rupee-–-Its-Understanding.jpeg The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will shortly launch restricted pilots of the e-rupee, also known as Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) or digital rupee, for specified use cases. It has hinted at two major categories for the usage of e-rupee for various transactions — retail and wholesale.  The CBDC is defined by the RBI as a digital representation of currency notes issued by a central bank. It is a sovereign or completely autonomous currency issued by the country's central bank (in this case, the RBI) in line with monetary policy. CBDC will be recognised as a means of payment and legal tender by all three parties - individuals, government agencies, and businesses - once it is formally issued. Because it is government-backed, it may be readily exchanged for money or notes from any commercial bank. The RBI is not enthusiastic about the e-rupee.

In India, sickle cell anaemia is the first illness targeted for CRISPR-based treatment. The pre-clinical phase (animal studies) is set to commence. CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) is a gene editing system that uses a specific enzyme called Cas9 to mimic bacteria's natural defence mechanism against viral assaults. It generally entails the insertion of a new gene or the silencing of an existing gene via a process known as genetic engineering. CRISPR technique does not entail the insertion of any new genes from outside sources. CRISPR-Cas9 technology is frequently referred to as 'Genetic Scissors.' Its method is sometimes equated to the

India is the world's largest rice exporter, accounting for more than 40% of worldwide rice shipments, and competes in the global market alongside Thailand, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Myanmar. It is frequently used to produce feed for very young animals and pets. Furthermore, it is ideal for all sorts of animals due to its high caloric value and low fibre content. It is also utilised in the brewing business, where it is combined with barley, as well as in the manufacture of arak (aniseed alcoholic drink, distilled, colourless drink). It is a raw ingredient used to make rice flour, which is then utilised in baby food, morning cereals, rice wine, rice liqueur, sake, and packed and tinned

India and Bangladesh have inked seven agreements for cooperation spanning from river water sharing to space exploration, as well as launched new connectivity and energy initiatives.  The two sides have signed seven Memorandums of Understanding (MoU), including one on removing water from the cross-border Kushiyara river. The arrangement would assist southern Assam in India and Bangladesh's Sylhet area. Cooperation in space technology, collaboration on information technology systems used by railways in areas such as freight movement, science and technology cooperation, training of Bangladesh Railway personnel and Bangladeshi judicial officers in India, and cooperation in broadcasting between Prasar Bharati and Bangladesh Television were also areas

The Supreme Court of India recently granted Teesta Setalvad interim release, declaring that "the remedy of interim bail is given to the appellant (Teesta) in the unusual conditions, including the fact that the appellant happens to be a girl." The Chief Justice of India further referred to a bail clause in the Code of Criminal Procedure CrPC that states that "being a woman is a conceivable cause for granting release, even when it cannot be considered otherwise." Section 437 of the Criminal Procedure Code addresses bail in case of non-bailable offences. According to it, a person shall not be released on bail if there is

The image is taken from  PresidentKovind-kkHE--621x414@LiveMint.jpg   Former President Ram Nath Kovind stated that an "ideal police system" means that a police officer's work is full of duty and accountability. Life and liberty are essential moral values that are considered to be such in all human civilizations, and police officers must frequently determine whether or not to arrest, i.e., whether or not to take away someone's freedom, and in extreme cases, whether or not to take away someone's life. The police must evaluate a wide range of acts while making moral judgements. They must assess a person's goodness and badness before determining if their acts are wrong.  For each action committed by a person, they must consider the motive, goals, and effects of the activity.  The police may be obliged to encounter danger or hostility in order to do their duties, and predictably, police personnel are
