  Menstrual Hygiene Day, observed on May 28th, underscores the vital significance of proper menstrual hygiene management. This day aims to highlight the challenges women and girls face due to inadequate menstrual hygiene, which impacts their health, happiness, and empowerment. For many girls, the onset of menstruation brings a mix of emotions—confusion, embarrassment, and anxiety. Without access to proper menstrual products and education, managing periods can be a daunting experience. Girls often feel isolated, missing school and social activities, which affects their education and self-esteem. In many parts of the world, menstruation is still shrouded in taboo, leading to misinformation and stigma. This can cause girls to suffer in silence, feeling ashamed of their natural biological process. Lack of adequate facilities in schools and public places further exacerbates the issue, making it difficult for girls to maintain hygiene and dignity during their periods. Addressing these challe

 The process for upgrading and downgrading the categorisation of Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) to higher or lower schedules has been streamlined. Now, the Finance Minister holds the ultimate authority for determining the grading of CPSEs. This change simplifies the procedure, ensuring quicker and more efficient decision-making regarding the status of these enterprises. Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) are classified into four distinct categories: A, B, C, and D. This classification significantly impacts the organizational structure and the salaries of board-level officials within these enterprises. As of June 26, 2023, data from the Department of Public Enterprises under the Finance Ministry reveals that 71 CPSEs, including prominent names like NTPC, Indian Oil, ONGC, SAIL, and BHEL, are categorized as A. Another 68 CPSEs, such as Air India Assets Holding, Cement Corporation, and Garden Reach, fall under category B. Categories C and D comprise 38 and 5 CPSEs, respe

Russia's decision to delete the draft plan comes amidst increasing international scrutiny and diplomatic pressure. NATO officials welcomed the withdrawal but remain vigilant, emphasizing the need for transparent and peaceful negotiations re
