THE HINDU

1.

SC denies bail to Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam for Delhi riots

The Supreme Court on Monday denied bail to activists Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam in a case registered under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) relating to the alleged "larger conspiracy" behind the February 2020 riots in New Delhi. The court said the evidence on record prima facie attributed to them a "central and formative role" in the orchestration of the violence.


2.

NGT notice to Centre, U.P. over 'violations' near Taj Mahal

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has issued notices to the Union Environment Ministry, Uttar Pradesh government and others on allegations of illegal felling of trees, illegal construction and encroachment in the ecological sensitive zone of Agra, particularly around the Taj Mahal, along Agra-Gwalior Highway.


3.

Indian aviation safety, its dangerous credibility deficit

The transparent and the truthful report promised on the Ahmedabad air crash in June 2025 appears to be a dream.


4.

The parallel track that keeps U.S.-India ties going

In 2025, despite political strains and the postponement of the much-anticipated Quad Leaders' Summit hosted by India, the underlying machinery of India-United States cooperation remains vigorous and steadily advancing. While political engagement appears low, notably amid U.S. trade sanctions on India and its warming ties with Pakistan, the institutional collaboration between the two democracies continues to expand, particularly in defence and technology cooperation. The visits of India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar's and the Indian Navy Chief to the U.S. must be seen in this framework.


5.

Stepping in with Maoism in rapid retreat

The government needs to ensure consistent development in the affected tribal areas.


6.

Old alliances, new markets: Two-path formula for export growth

Last month, we noted that India's trade data for November had shown a continued resilience in exports despite mounting U.S. tariffs. Not only did India's overall exports grow, but shipments to the U.S. also rebounded. However, the exact drivers were harder to discern at the time, as detailed data were still awaited.


7.

What does the SHANTI Bill change?

Parliament has cleared the SHANTI Bill, opening India's State-controlled nuclear power sector to private and foreign participation, ending NPCIL's monopoly while retaining 51% government control over sensitive activities. The Bill removes supplier liability, caps operator liability, and shifts responsibility beyond the cap to the Union government and a nuclear liability fund, a move defended as providing predictable liability but criticised as diluting accountability and the 'polluter pays' principle.


8.

What remote-sensing reveals about plants, forests, and minerals from space

Remote-sensing technology allows engineers and scientists to map land, forests, water bodies, and minerals without physically touching the ground; by detecting spectral signatures from visible and invisible light, satellites and drones reveal the health and location of natural resources.


9.

Coast Guard adds pollution control vessel to its fleet

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh commissioned the Indian Coast Guard Ship ICGS Samudra Pratap, the first of two indigenously designed pollution control vessels (PCVs) for the Indian Coast Guard (ICG), in Goa on Monday. The Minister described the ship, built with over 60% indigenous content, as a symbol of India's maturing defence ecosystem.
