The Nagaland state government, led by Advisor for Social Welfare Wangpang Konyak, has announced plans to establish old-age homes in all districts of the state during a senior-citizen eye-camp event at the Mon district hospital. This initiative reflects growing awareness of ageing population issues in the Northeast, where traditional family-care models are evolving under changing economic and social pressures. The scheme aims to offer inclusive, elder-friendly infrastructure and social-welfare support in remote hill districts. Implementation will require funds, trained staff and logistical planning—especially given terrain-challenges and hilly connectivity.

In the Kharsang oil-field of Changlang district (Arunachal Pradesh), a major blowout has been spewing gas uncontrollably for nine days. The Government has called in U.S. experts to assist with containment efforts, transport of equipment and technical advice from today. The incident underscores the risks of upstream exploration in sensitive terrain and raises local concerns about environmental and social impact. While the state aims to boost hydrocarbon output, villagers and activists are watching closely—any mishap could hamper local ecosystems, cross-border hydrology and community health.

World leaders attending COP-30 in Belém, Brazil have launched the Tropical Forests Forever Facility (TFFF), a bold new fund designed to reward tropical-forest nations for preserving tree cover rather than cutting it down. The initiative has already secured more than US $5 billion in initial commitments and boasts endorsement by 53 countries, covering over 90% of the world’s tropical forests. The fund seeks to mobilise up to US $125 billion via blended public-private investment, with plans to channel part of the returns to indigenous peoples and local communities. Analysts view this as a landmark shift in global climate finance—shifting from reactive restoration to proactive conservation. The launch comes amid mounting scientific evidence that deforestation is accelerating climate change and biodiversity loss. Watch for how effectively the fund converts pledges into forest-saving action on the ground.

In Agartala, senior Congress MLA Sudip Roy Barman criticised the proposed ‘One North East’ political alliance by Pradyot Kishore Debbarma as a “political gimmick” to distract from unfulfilled promises. The comment fuels debate on the relevance and sincerity of pan-regional alliances in the Northeast, where ethnic identities and local demands often shape politics.

The Donald Trump-led Administration saw the U.S. federal government enter its longest shutdown ever, surpassing the previous 35-day record. Trump publicly lambasted Democrats as “kamikaze” for allegedly holding the country hostage. The shutdown is disrupting key federal services, delaying benefits and payments, and rattling global markets that watch Washington's gridlock. Analysts warn that continuing brinkmanship could erode U.S. credibility abroad and weaken fiscal stability at home.

A committee is set up, with structure and modalities to be finalised within 45 days. Leaders say this move responds to perceived marginalisation and seeks to better articulate the region’s developmental and cultural concerns at the Centre.

The Bhubaneswar campus in Odisha now hosts India’s first full-scale silicon-carbide (SiC) semiconductor manufacturing facility, under the India Semiconductor Mission. SiC chips are vital for electric vehicles, renewable energy and defence — sectors central to India’s push for tech self-reliance. Government officials say the move marks a major step in the domestic supply-chain build-out, reducing reliance on imports. Industry watchers note that ex*****on now matters: scale, supply and quality will determine India’s global standing.

Rob Jetten, a 38-year-old leader of the socially liberal D66 party, is set to become the next prime minister of the Netherlands — both its youngest and first openly gay leader. His narrow win over the far-right PVV signals a pivot away from populist politics in one of Europe’s key nations. Jetten’s campaign emphasised green energy, immigration reform and investment in education. The result is being watched as a potential blueprint for progressive change across Europe. LGBTQ+ representation takes another leap; as do questions about how such leadership will shift policy on climate and international affairs.

A new report shows that India’s richest 1 % have seen their wealth surge by approximately 62 % since the year 2000, while the bottom 50 % gained only marginally. The gap in economic outcomes is raising concerns about social stability, inclusive growth and policymaker attention in the country’s rapidly evolving economy. Experts say that without stronger redistribution and opportunity mechanisms, India's growth story may face credibility issues. The finding adds pressure on the government to address inequality as part of its development agenda.
