    • SECTION 1 - TEN NEWS HEADLINES
  1. Economy – Will invest $10 billion in India, says Google chief – Technology giant Google will invest $10 billion (₹75,000 crore) in India over the next five to seven years with a focus on digitising the economy and building India-first products and services. Investments will focus on four areas key to digitisation — enabling affordable access and information for every Indian in their own language, building products and services that are deeply relevant to India’s unique needs, empowering businesses on their digital transformation journey, and leveraging technology and AI for social good in areas such as health, education and agriculture.
  2. International relations – Iran drops India from Chabahar rail project, cites funding delay – Four years after India and Iran signed an agreement to construct a rail line from Chabahar port to Zahedan, along the border with Afghanistan, the Iranian government has decided to proceed with the construction on its own, citing delays from the Indian side in funding and starting the project. The development comes as China finalises a massive 25-year, $400 billion strategic partnership deal with Iran, which could cloud India’s plans. The railway project, which was being discussed between the Iranian Railways and the state-owned Indian Railways Construction Ltd (IRCON), was meant to be part of India’s commitment to the trilateral agreement between India, Iran and Afghanistan to build an alternate trade route to Afghanistan and Central Asia.
  3. COVID-19 – India’s Covid count tops 9 lakh; 28,648 cases, 538 deaths on Monday – India’s Covid-19 caseload zoomed past the 9 lakh mark, just three days after crossing 8 lakh, as the new week began with the addition of over 28,600 cases and 538 deaths. The past week saw the biggest rise in both cases and deaths from the virus in the country, discounting the third week of June when 2,003 deaths, mostly back-dated, were added in a single day. Over 1.83 lakh cases and 3,466 deaths were recorded between July 6 and 12, at a daily average of over 26,100 cases and 495 deaths. On Monday, 28,648 new cases emerged, taking the total to 9,07,041, as per data collated from states. India’s Covid-19 toll rose to 23,695. While over 5.7 lakh patients have so far recovered, there are 3.12 lakh active cases.
  4. Internal security – India faces jt Pak-China threat in Indian Ocean – The collusive China-Pakistan threat along the land borders is slowly extending to the maritime domain as well. Even as China steps up its naval forays into the Indian Ocean Region (IOR), it is also helping Pakistan build its maritime combat power in the overall attempt to stymie India in its own backyard. China is following a twin-pronged approach by facilitating Pakistan to build its Navy while hunting for more overseas bases to offset its “tyranny of logistics” in the IOR as compared to India, say officials.
  5. World – Iran, China set to clinch 25-year deal – Iran and China are close to finalising a 25-year Strategic Partnership which will include Chinese involvement in Chabahar’s duty-free zone, an oil refinery nearby, and possibly a larger role in Chabahar port as well. According to leaked versions of the 18-page “Comprehensive Plan for Cooperation between Iran and China”, being finalised by officials in Tehran and Beijing, the cooperation will extend from investments in infrastructure, manufacturing and upgrading energy and transport facilities, to refurbishing ports, refineries and other installations, and will commit Iranian oil and gas supplies to China during that period.
  6. Defence – Aircraft carriers to get Indian jets by 2032 – The Navy is expected to start receiving new twin-engine aircraft carrier-based fighter aircraft being developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) by 2032 and it will be a replacement for the Russian MiG-29K carrier jets in service. The Navy currently operates Russian-origin carrier INS Vikramaditya and expects to have the first Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC-I) Vikrant operational by 2022. With a second carrier to come in, the Navy is already evaluating a global tender for 57 carrier-based twin-engine fighter aircraft.
  7. World – Polish president Duda narrowly wins re-election, enabling the continuation of a far-right agenda – Poland's right-wing president, Andrzej Duda, won a second term by a razor-thin margin in results announced Monday, paving the way for Warsaw to continue a political program that human rights advocates and other European leaders have criticized as undermining democracy. Duda — an ally of President Trump — won 51 percent of the vote in Sunday's runoff election. Centrist Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski trailed with 49 percent.
  8. World – China hits U.S. lawmakers, envoy with sanctions over Xinjiang – China has slapped retaliatory sanctions on three senior Republican lawmakers and a U.S. envoy in a deepening row over Beijing’s treatment of Uighurs in the western Xinjiang region. It asks Washington to ‘stop any words and actions that interfere in its internal affairs’. The unspecified “corresponding sanctions” were announced days after the U.S. imposed visa bans and asset freezes on several Chinese officials, including the Communist Party chief in Xinjiang, Chen Quanguo, over rights abuses in the region.
  9. World – Taliban Stage a Major Attack, as Violence Intensifies in Northern Afghanistan – Insurgents bombed the entrance of an Afghan intelligence complex in a provincial capital, then stormed the offices in a sustained gun battle, killing at least 11. President Ashraf Ghani condemned the attack in Samangan and accused the Taliban of trying to strengthen their hand before any negotiations. There has been a surge in violence across the country in recent weeks following a disagreement between the government and the Taliban group about the release of prisoners. As per a February deal between the US and the Taliban, up to 5,000 Taliban prisoners are to be released in advance of intra-Afghan talks, along with up to 1,000 government prisoners.
  10. Research/study – Antibody immunity to Covid-19 may be short-lived: UK study – Patients who recover from the novel coronavirus may have an antibody response that makes them immune to the deadly virus only for a few months. Research found levels of antibodies that can destroy the virus peaked about three weeks after the onset of symptoms then started declining. The immune system has multiple ways to fight the coronavirus but if antibodies are the main line of defence, the findings suggest people could become reinfected in seasonal waves just like the common cold and other kinds of flu.

                                    3.1 WWF warns about increase in demand of rare animals due to Commercial farming of endangered species in Myanmar

                                    •  Key point -  
                                    1. Wildlife and environmental conservation group WWF and Fauna & Flora International (FFI) have warned that the change in the Myanmar law allowing for commercial farming of endangered species may boost the demand for rare animals in the world.

                                    1. The organisations in a joint statement cautioned that commercial trade has been shown to increase trade in wildlife by creating a parallel market for these products, according to sources.
                                    2. The government of Myanmar in June passed a law allowing private zoos to breed 90 wildlife species out of which more than 20 are endangered.

                                    5. Experts also fear that it may lead to the spillover of diseases from animals to humans as Myanmar lacks the capacity to regulate the trade.
                                    6. However, the Forest Department of Myanmar maintains that the list of wild animals allowed for commercial farming was drawn after consultation with  conservation groups, academics, and experts in the field.

                                    4. The paired camera traps were placed at 26,760 different locations across 139 study sites, which generated approximately 35 million photos, including 76,523 tiger and 51,337 leopard photos.
                                    • Data analysis –

                                                                                  2. The Election Commission (EC) of India is mandated under law to hold elections at any time within six months before the five-year term of the Lok Sabha or Legislative Assembly expires.
                                                                                  3. In the case of early dissolution, EC has to ensure a new Lok Sabha or Assembly is in place within six months of the dissolution.
                                                                                  4. An election once called usually proceeds as per schedule.

                                                                                  4. In March 2020 elections to 18 Rajya Sabha seats were postponed by the EC due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

South Korea conducted its election by disinfecting polling centres, and mandating voters practise physical distancing, wear gloves and masks and use hand sanitiser, voters had their temperatures checked on arrival at the booths, voters were allowed to mail their ballots, while self-quarantined voters were allowed to vote after 6 p.m. EC can work on this model
                                                                                  2. As per experts the pandemic will have its effect for at least two years, postponing the election for such a long period will go against the spirit of the democracy.

                                                                                                                    2. It will be visible through binoculars or a small telescope.
                                                                                                                    3. The word comet comes from the Latin word ‘Cometa’ which means ‘long-haired’.
                                                                                                                    4. The earliest known record of a comet sighting was made by an astrologer in 1059 BC.
                                                                                                                    5. Comets are mostly made of dust, rocks and ice and can range in their width from a few miles to tens of miles wide.
                                                                                                                    6. When they orbit closer to the sun, like C/2020 F3, they heat up and release debris of dust and gases.
                                                                                                                    7. When near the sun, the icy cometary surfaces vaporize and throw off large quantities of gas and dust thus forming the enormous atmosphere and tails.
                                                                                                                    8. The released gases form a glowing head that can often be larger than a planet and the debris forms a tail that can stretch out to millions of miles.
                                                                                                                    9. Each time a comet passes the sun, it loses some of its material and it will eventually disappear completely as a result.
                                                                                                                    10. There are more than 3,650 known comets as of now.
                                                                                                                    11. The predictable comets are the short-period comets which take less than 200 years to orbit around the sun.
                                                                                                                    12. These can be found in the Kuiper belt, where many comets orbit the sun in the realm of Pluto.
                                                                                                                    13. One of the most famous short-period comets is called Halley’s Comet that reappears every 76 years. Halley’s will be sighted next in 2062.
                                                                                                                    14. The less-predictable comets can be found in the Oort cloud that is about 100,000 AU (Astronomical Unit which is the distance between the Earth and the Sun and is roughly 150 million km) from the sun or 100,000 times the distance between the Earth and the sun.
                                                                                                                    15. Comets in this cloud can take as long as 30 million years to complete one rotation around the sun.
                                                                                                                    16. Astronomers believe that comets hold important clues about the formation of the solar system and it is possible that comets brought water and other organic compounds to Earth.
