Cryptocurrencies, bitcoins and many other words are prevailing all over the world. Hence it is essential to know some important points about it. This topic is covered under the article 'Cryptocurrency: Digitalising economy'. On 12th January 2018, for the first time in the history, four senior judges of the Supreme court of India held a press conference. The four judges are Justice J Chelameshwar, Justice Ranjan Gogoi, Justice Madan Lokur and Justice Kurien. During the press conference, Justice J Chelameshwar said the administration of the nation's top court was not in order. With this move of the judges, it became essential for us to know in details about the Supreme Court of India. All the details of this topic is covered in the article 'Judiciary in India'. Foreign direct investment (FDI) is a major source of non-debt financial resource for the economic development of India. Foreign companies invest in India to take advantage of relatively lower wages, special investment privileges such as tax exemptions, etc. The Indian government’s favourable policy regime and robust business environment have ensured that foreign capital keeps flowing into the country. The government has recently liberalised FDI policies in various sectors. All the important aspects of the topic is covered under the ' Liberalised policies in FDI'. Apart from these three articles, another article is there i.e. '75th Golden Globe Award'.

  • Of 2 14Th October 2012 on Internet Rules, India Now More Willing to Say
    On Internet rules, India now more willing to say ICANN India has reinvented its position on Internet governance, hoping to become a new voice of reason in what has so far been a deeply polarised global debate. The change is intended to distance India from any model propagating governments taking “charge” or “balkanising” the Internet. It was unveiled at the recent Budapest Cyber Space Conference. Sachin Pilot, who led the Indian delegation to Budapest, instead of opposing the U.S.-based Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and its operations through an earlier proposal called the U.N. Committee on Internet-Related Policies (UN-CIRP), India will pursue enhanced cooperation through wider dialogue. Countries such as Russia, China, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan have been advocating governance models that seek to place the Internet under U.N. control while the U.S. and western states have been reluctant to move away from the status quo position of ICANN-led Internet governance. India had positioned its UN-CIRP proposal as something that would lie in between these two extremes. BrahMos gains sub-strategic super weapon capability Latest upgrades to the Indo-Russian BrahMos cruise missile make it a sub-strategic super weapon capable of being launched from land, sea, sub-sea and air platforms. BrahMos missile, test fired from the Russian- built frigate INS Teg, had a new satellite guidance system borrowed from Russia’s long-range cruise missile X-555 and its latest version, X-101.
