1)Supreme Court has finally Said Goodbye to the process of Instant Triple Talaq :- The controversial Islamic divorce practice of instant triple talaq (Talaq-e-Biddat) has been struck down as arbitrary and against the tenets of Islam. The practice was against Article 14 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to equality, the Supreme Court has ruled.
What is instant triple talaq?
There are three forms of talaq (divorce) in Islam: Ahsan, Hasan and Talaq-e-Biddat (triple or instant talaq).
Ahsan and Hasan are revocable but Biddat is irrevocable. Biddat is considered sinful but is permissible in Islamic law. It has been banned in more than 20 Muslim countries, including Pakistan and Bangladesh.
This Opens a new bid or Unform Civil Code which is there in Article 44 of the Indian Constitution.
2)NITI Aayog to launch “Mentor India” Campaign :-
Before Understanding this we need to understand about AIM (Atal Innovation Mission) which is among one of the flagship programs of the Government of India to promote innovation and entrepreneurship in the country to set up the Atal Tinkering Labs across the country.
Atal Tinkering Labs are dedicated works spaces where students from Class 6th to Class 12th learn innovation skills and develop ideas that will go on to transform India.
NITI Aayog is all set to launch the Mentor India Campaign, a strategic nation building initiative to engage leaders who can guide and mentor students at more than 900 Atal Tinkering Labs, established across the country as a part of the Atal Innovation Mission.
Mentor India is aimed at maximizing the impact of Atal Tinkering Labs.
3)US(Donald Trump) has Declared a new Policy for Afghanistan:- The new US policy on Afghanistan:
The new U.S. strategy for South Asia commits troops in Afghanistan for an open-ended period of time.
The policy also sets the stage for a new wave of U.S. offensive against Islamist forces in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
What are the Advantages of these new steps for India:-
4)New species of the genus Nasikabatrachus:- The newly discovered frog is named Nasikabatrachus bhupathi.
It has a snout-shaped nose, just like a pig’s and is a soil dwelling species of purple frog.
It inhabits the eastern slopes of the Western Ghats, near the Srivilliputhur Grizzled Giant Squirrel Wildlife Sanctuary in Tamil Nadu.
Why this Discovery is Significant :-
The discovery is significant as it constitutes additional evidence in favour of the theory of continental drift.
The frog is an inhabitant of Seychelles, and the discovery of this frog species in India suggests that the Indian subcontinent was part of the ancient landmass of Gondwana before splitting from Seychelles 65 million years ago.

What are the Advantages of these new steps for India:-
- A greater role of India in Afghanistan where it is already playing a big part in its reconstruction.
- A stable Afghanistan, which is fiercely against Pakistan, can in fact give India strategic advantage by providing a valuable military base in future, overlooking both Pakistan and China.
- Gateway to central Asia
- A wider presence in Afghanistan will give India greater leverage in dealing with the terror groups like Al Qaeda and the Islamic State which are trying to establish their Indian footprint.
