🌴 Rahul Gandhi flags FRA violations in Great Nicobar project

In a letter to Tribal Affairs Minister Jual Oram, the Leader of Opposition has raised concerns that clearances for the ₹72,000-crore Great Nicobar Island project—spanning a port, airport, power plant & township—may have bypassed Forest Rights Act (FRA) procedures.

🚨 The Tribal Council of Little & Great Nicobar alleges its consent was misrepresented and that key communities like the Shompen & Nicobarese were left out of the Gram Sabha process.

With 13,000+ hectares of forest land marked for diversion and the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes already voicing concern, the controversy is now before the Calcutta High Court.

👉 What’s at stake for India’s mega island infra push—and for its tribal safeguards?

⛽ India’s upstream oil & gas sector just got squeezed.

The GST Council has hiked tax on exploration & drilling services from 12% ➝ 18%, with no input credit since crude & natural gas remain outside GST.

📉 For producers like ONGC & Reliance, this means higher costs (rigs, offshore support vessels, drilling services) without any offset—creating stranded taxes.

With global crude prices already cooling after OPEC+ supply adjustments, upstream players now face a double whammy: lower realisations + higher costs.

👉 What does this mean for India’s exploration targets and self-reliance goals in oil & gas?

🛩️ GPS jamming just became real-world warfare.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s plane was forced to land using paper maps after a GPS blackout over Bulgaria—officials point to Russia. This wasn’t an isolated glitch, but part of nearly 80 such interference events across Europe since 2022. NATO warns the danger isn’t theoretical—it’s potentially catastrophic.

India is no exception: around 465 spoofing incidents have been reported near the Amritsar–Jammu region, mirroring global patterns.

As aviation infrastructure becomes more digital, GNSS systems are increasingly vulnerable. A hybrid weapon today could be a disaster tomorrow—unless we build in resilience now.
