    • SECTION 1 - TEN NEWS HEADLINES
  1. Polity and Governance – Farmers demand special Parliament session to repeal new laws - Farmers’ groups agitating against the new agriculture laws have upped the ante ahead of their discussions with the Centre, calling for a special session of Parliament to repeal the laws — a demand central to the stir. Farmers’ representatives, who had met Union ministers Mr. Tomar and Piyush Goyal, called for an intensification of protests even as the Centre offered to “address concerns” through discussions but the demand for a special Parliament session has deepened the deadlock, further shrinking the middle ground between the two sides. Farm groups under the banner of Samyukt Kisan Morcha coordination committee held marathon meetings to prepare a detailed note, flagging off six points in their letter to Tomar.
  2. Internal Security –  ‘India will not accept less than bottom line in talks with China’ - Talks with China on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) could take much longer, External Affairs Minister indicated, drawing a parallel to a similar military stand-off in Arunachal Pradesh’s ‘Sumdorong Chu’ in 1986 that took nearly nine years to resolve. Adding that India and China must take a “long view” of the border dispute and not just the “incidents” at the LAC this year, Mr. Jaishankar cautioned Beijing against dealing with India through the prism of a “third party”, in a reference to India’s close ties with the United States. The two sides signed the breakthrough 1993 agreement on the Maintenance of Peace and Tranquillity along the Line of Actual Control..
  3. Covid-19 Updates – Britain approves Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine - Britain approved Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, jumping ahead of the rest of the world in the race to begin the most crucial mass inoculation programme in history with a shot tested in wide-scale clinical trials. PM Boris Johnson touted the green light from the U.K.’s medicine authority as a global win and a ray of hope amid the pandemic. “Fantastic news,” Mr. Johnson told Parliament, though he cautioned that people should not get too carried away. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granted emergency use approval to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which they say is 95% effective in preventing illness, just 23 days since Pfizer published the first data from i final stage clinical trial. Britain said it would start vaccinating those most at risk of dying early next week after it gets 8,00,000 doses from Pfizer’s manufacturing centre in Belgium..
  4. Education – 2021 board exams will be in written mode: CBSE - Board examinations will be conducted in written mode and not online, the Central Board of Secondary Education said. Given that practical examinations may not be possible for many students due to the COVID-19 pandemic, alternatives are being considered for the 2020-21 examination cycle. The statement added that “in case students are not able to do practicals in classes before the exams, alternatives to practical exams will have to be explored”. Schools across the country shut down in March due to the pandemic. The board exams for 2019-2020 were partially completed when the lockdown happened..
  5. Social – Honey marketed by prominent Indian brands failed a key test of purity - The Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has claimed, citing an investigation it conducted. Current regulations specify around eighteen parameters that honey must comply with for producers to label it ‘pure honey’. CSE food researchers selected thirteen brands of raw and processed honey, including Dabur, Patanjali, Baidyanath and Zandu, and subjected them to tests that are required under national food regulatory laws to be labelled as honey. Most brands passed muster but when subjected to one test, called Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR, that can ascertain the composition of a product at the molecular level) that was done at a lab in Germany, only three brands (spanning six samples) passed: Saffola, Markfed Sohna and Nature’s Nectar (one sample of two). There were often multiple samples tested for each brand. The NMR test is not required by Indian law for honey that is being marketed locally but is needed for export...
  6. Constitution and Law – Ex-HC judge held for abusive posts against peers, their kin - A former judge of the Madras and Calcutta high courts, C S Karnan, was arrested by the Chennai police cybercrime wing for allegedly obscene and abusive social media posts against several judges and their family members. The action comes two days after the Madras high court pulled up the Tamil Nadu DGP and Chennai commissioner of police and issued summons to them for their inaction against the retired judge even though three cases had been registered against him for a series of offensive posts. A police team picked up Justice Karnan (retd) from his residence in Avadi. He was later produced before a magistrate’s court and remanded in Puzhal prison. The police have registered a case against him for offences punishable under IPC Sections 509..
  7. Awards and Honors – Winners of Infosys Prize announced - The Infosys Science Foundation (ISF) announced the winners of the Infosys Prize 2020 in six categories for their contributions to science and research — Engineering and Computer Science, Humanities, Life Sciences, Mathematical Sciences, Physical Sciences, and Social Sciences. After a virtual press conference announcing the winners, they were awarded in a virtual ceremony the same day. The prize consists of a gold medal, a citation and a purse of $1,00,000. According to a release from the foundation, the winners were picked from 257 nominations. The winners are: Hari Balakrishnan from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Engineering and Computer Science); Prachi Deshpande from the Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Kolkata (Humanities); Rajan Sankaranarayanan from the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad (Life Sciences); Sourav Chatterjee from Stanford University (Mathematical Sciences); Arindam Ghosh from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (Physical Sciences) and Raj Chetty from Harvard University (Social Sciences).
  8. US Presidential Elections – No evidence of decisive poll fraud: AG - In yet another setback for U.S. President Donald Trump, Attorney General William Barr has said that there is no widespread evidence of election fraud, contradicting Mr. Trump’s claims that his opponent Joe Biden stole the election on the basis of mail-in voting. The President and his allies have asked for recounts, mounted legal challenges, and engaged in political manoeuvring to prevent States from certifying their elections over the last few weeks but their efforts have been unsuccessful, with key battleground States like Arizona, Wisconsin, Nevada, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Michigan certifying their election results recently. Last month, Mr. Barr had authorised federal prosecutors to investigate “substantial allegations” of election irregularities — something not usually done until after the election is certified, causing one official, who objected to the memo from Mr. Barr, to step down. Mr. Trump continued tweeting his allegations of election fraud on Tuesday after Mr. Barr’s views were made public.
  9. World – Afghan government, Taliban reach breakthrough deal even as fighting shows no let-up - Afghan government and Taliban representatives said they had reached a preliminary deal to press on with peace talks, their first written agreement in nineteen years of war and welcomed by the United States as a chance to halt the violence. The agreement lays out the way forward for discussion but is considered a breakthrough because it will allow negotiators to move on to more substantive issues, including talks on a ceasefire, even as Taliban attacks on Afghan government forces have continued unabated. 'The procedure including its preamble of the negotiation has been finalised and from now on, the negotiation will begin on the agenda,' Nader Nadery, a member of the Afghan government's negotiating team,..
  10. Economy – China buys first Indian rice in decades amid scarce supply - China has begun importing Indian rice for the first time in at least three decades due to tightening supplies from Thailand, Myanmar and Vietnam and an offer of sharply discounted prices. India is the world’s biggest rice exporter and China the biggest importer. Beijing buys about four million tonnes a year but has avoided purchases from India, citing quality issues. The rice imports come despite political tensions over a border dispute in the Himalayas which erupted into a clash in June in which twenty Indian soldiers were killed. India has since tightened rules for investments from China and banned dozens of Chinese mobile apps. Although the public mood in India has been anti-China, the country has remained engaged with Indian businesses.

4.2 Singapore – the first country to approve sale of lab-grown meat     
 
Highlights –  
  • Singapore has given US start-up Eat Just the nod to sell its lab-grown chicken meat, in what the firm says is the world's first regulatory approval for so-called clean meat that does not come from slaughtered animals.
  • Demand for alternatives to regular meat is surging due to consumer concerns about health, animal welfare and the environment.
  • Plant-based meat options, popularised by Beyond Meat Inc and Impossible Foods, increasingly feature on supermarket shelves and restaurant menus.
  • However, so-called clean or cultured meat, which is grown from animal muscle cells in a lab, is still at a nascent stage given high production costs.
  • The firm said the meat will be sold as nuggets and had previously pegged their cost at $50 each.
  • But co-founder and CEO Josh Tetrick said the cost has since come down and the meat would be priced at parity to premium chicken when it first launches in a restaurant in Singapore "in the very near term".
  • The company is targeting operating profitability before the end of 2021, and hopes to go public soon after.
  • Globally more than two dozen firms are testing lab-grown fish, beef and chicken, hoping to break into an unproven segment of the alternative meat market, which Barclays estimates could be worth $140 billion by 2029.

    • 9. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (Prelims, GS Paper 3)
9.1 China’s Chang’e 5 mission 
 

 
Highlights – 
  • China’s Chang’e 5 mission, tasked with bringing a sample of lunar dirt back to Earth, has successfully landed on the Moon, marking the third time that China has placed a robotic spacecraft on the lunar surface.
  • The lander will soon begin digging up samples of lunar soil, which will be returned to our planet later this month (December).
  • Chang’e 5 launched from China’s Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on November 23rd, flying to space on top of a Long March 5 rocket. It’s a complex mission consisting of four main spacecraft that will all work together to bring between 2 to 4 kilograms of lunar dirt back to Earth.
  • The quartet traveled to the Moon attached together and got into lunar orbit on November 28th.
  • Two of those four spacecraft include a lander and an ascent vehicle, which are stacked on top of each other. On November 28th, the pair separated from the third spacecraft, Chang’e-5’s service module, which remained in orbit around the Moon. The lander and ascent module have already touched down on the lunar surface.
  • Now over the next few days, the lander will use a robotic arm to drill into the lunar dirt and scoop up rocks, storing them inside a sample container.
  • The sample will eventually be transferred to the fourth spacecraft, a reentry capsule tasked with bringing the material to the ground. It’s unclear exactly when that landing will take place, but it could occur around December 16th or 17th. China is targeting somewhere in Inner Mongolia for the landing spot.
  • If all goes to plan, China will become one of three countries to bring back samples from the Moon.
  • US astronauts retrieved lunar soil samples during the Apollo missions in the 1960s and 70s, and the former Soviet Union brought back lunar material through a series of robotic missions in the 1970s.
  • The last successful lunar sample return mission occurred in 1976 with the Soviet Union’s Luna 24 mission. With Chang’e-5, China could bring the first material back from the Moon in nearly half a century.
  • Chang’e-5 isn’t the only mission that could bring rocks from another world to Earth this month. Japan’s Hayabusa2 mission, which has been in space since 2014, is slated to return a sample of material from an asteroid named Ryugu this weekend (1st week of December).
