No.1 reality: Ending Black Money The core objective was destroying hoards of illicit wealth. Instead, 99.3% of demonetised notes returned to banks. It proved black money was parked in real estate, gold, and businesses, not stored in physical cash

The Quad is gradually expanding its focus beyond traditional maritime security. At the recent Foreign Ministers' meeting, the four countries announced the Quad Business Leaders Forum with a focus on critical minerals, semiconductors and trusted AI.

The latest developments point to three key areas of Quad cooperation: • Economic security: Building resilient global supply chains. • Critical minerals: Recovering minerals from e-waste and reducing dependence on single suppliers. • Emerging technology: Cooperation in trusted AI and advanced communication technologies like 5G and 6G. The Quad is increasingly linking regional security with economic and technological resilience. And what does this mean for India?👇

Most aspirants know the Population Census. Did you know business census?😄😄 India is now planning its 8th Economic Census: a headcount of businesses, not people👀 • VISTAR cleared by cabinet (4,371 crore, 2026-27 to 2030-31) under MoSPI • Plan: count non-farm establishments and workers down to Gram Panchayat and ward level • Why it matters: policy runs on statistics, and a fresh Economic Census gives them a fresh base. • Prelims tag: MoSPI, Central Sector Scheme.
