    April 2019 | 1 Monthly Updates On CURRENT AFFAIRS APRIL 2019 NATIONAL A 14 days‟ joint training exercise, MITRA SHAKTI VI, between Indian Army and the Sri Lankan Army held at Diyatalawa Parade Ground in Badulla District of Sri Lanka. It was the sixth edition of the joint exercise between these two nations. The exercise was conducted from 26th March 2019 to 08th April 2019. According to World Press Freedom Index 2019 released by an International NGO, „Reporters without Borders‟, India has dropped to two places down on a global press freedom index to be ranked 140th out of 180 countries. The index is based on the assessment of the countries‟ press freedom records in the previous year. The report is partly based on a questionnaire which asked questions about pluralism, media independence, environment and self-censorship, legislative framework, transparency, and infrastructure. India is ranked at 19th position with a score of 64.9 out of 28 countries in the Index of Cancer Preparedness (ICP) released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). It is released as part of the report titled “Cancer preparedness around the world: National readiness for a global epidemic” by EIU. The ICP explores the issue of cancer preparedness through three broad domains i.e. policy and planning, care delivery, health systems, and governance. In eLearning training, Telangana state has ranked number one by reaching to 20,000 field staff during 2018-19. This is the second year in succession that the State got the distinction under the Department of Personal and Training (DoPT). During the last two years, over 40,000 field staff belonging to different departments have been trained in the State.

  • INDIA in 2008 Domestic Turmoil and External Hopes
    INDIA IN 2008 Domestic Turmoil and External Hopes Sumit Ganguly Abstract The past year saw signifi cant domestic turmoil in India. The country con- fronted a series of terrorist attacks including the one in Bombay, witnessed ethno-religious violence, dealt with a resurgent Maoist (Naxalite) guerilla move- ment, and faced agitations from agricultural communities over the acquisition of land for industrialization. On the external front, India managed to consum- mate a critical civilian nuclear agreement with the U.S., after much domestic debate and contention. Keywords: Naxalite agitation, terrorism, U.S.-India civilian nuclear agreement, Nandigram, economic downturn Introduction Communal violence, terrorist attacks and bombings, and internal confl icts wracked signifi cant parts of India throughout 2008. In addition, a dramatic spike in global oil prices, coupled with rising food prices, delivered considerable exogenous shocks to the country’s economy. Late in the year, the acute fi nancial crisis in the U.S. began having an ad- verse, but limited, impact on India’s economy. Despite these myriad prob- lems stemming from both domestic and external sources, the country managed to clock a growth rate of 7.9% in the quarter ending in June.1 Sumit Ganguly is Professor of Political Science and holds the Rabin- dranath Tagore Chair in Indian Cultures and Civilizations at Indiana University in Bloom- ington.
