    • SECTION 1 - TEN NEWS HEADLINES
  • World – Israel on the brink of fourth poll in two years – Israel has headed for its fourth election in less than two years, with its Parliament set to dissolve at midnight after lawmakers rejected a last-ditch effort to salvage the fractured ruling coalition. The government headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had been inching towards collapse for weeks and now the right-wing incumbent looks set to face a re-election battle as his long-awaited trial on corruption charges gets under way next year. The coalition, led by Mr. Netanyahu’s Likud and his rival Benny Gantz’s centrist Blue and White party, has until the start of Wednesday (December 22) to pass a 2020 budget or Parliament will automatically dissolve. Mr. Gantz demanded the government pass a budget covering both 2020 and 2021, arguing Israel needs stability. But Mr. Netanyahu has refused to endorse a 2021 budget.
  • World – China slams U.S. over Tibet Bill, S. China Sea ‘trespass’ – The US and China have sparred over Tibet and the South China Sea, with new moves from Washington marking the start of the last month of President Donald Trump in office fuelling fresh tensions in an already fraught relationship. China has hit out at the U.S. for passing the Tibetan Policy and Support Act (TPSA), a landmark legislation that calls for the opening of a U.S. consulate in Lhasa and also underlines U.S. backing for the Dalai Lama to determine his successor. With the Act, the U.S. will back the choice made by the Dalai Lama, even as China has made clear it would anoint its own successor, just as it did by naming its own 11th Panchen Lama in 1995 as Gyancain Norbu, rejecting the Dalai Lama-backed candidate, Gedhun Choekyi Nima, aged six at the time, who has not been seen in public since.
  • Polity & Governance – Gupkar alliance wins 97 seats, BJP 70 in J&K district polls – The People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD), a conglomeration of seven parties, has taken a significant lead in the first-ever District Development Council (DDC) elections in Jammu and Kashmir even as the alliance’s main opponent, the BJP, emerged as the single largest party, sweeping the polls in many districts in the Jammu region while making some inroads in the valley. However, it is the independents — 44 of whom have already won— who will call the shots in many places, particularly in the valley. Nearly 20 more independents were leading in the counting. The DDC election was the first electoral exercise since the nullification of Article 370 on August 5 in 2019. Voting was conducted for 280 seats— 14 in each of the 20 districts of the Union Territory.
  • Covid-19 – Tuesday tally: 24k fresh cases, 330 deaths – India recorded nearly 24,000 fresh Covid cases on Tuesday (December 22), with the trend of decline in cases continuing as compared to the average count in the previous week. On December 21, daily cases had dipped to a 175-day low of 18,588. On Tuesday, the number of fresh cases stood at 23,866, with data from Assam yet to come. The case count on Tuesday was lower than the daily average of the previous week (24,502) as well as the tally recorded last Tuesday (26,239). India has so far recorded 1,00,99,264 cases. There were 330 deaths on Tuesday, around the same as the daily toll over the past eight days. India’s cumulative toll has risen to 1,46,424.
  • World – Nepal’s ruling party appears headed for split – The ruling Nepal Communist Party on December 22 appeared to be headed for a split after the warring factions held separate Central Committee meetings, with Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli announcing a new 1,199-member committee to organise the party’s general convention in an effort to strengthen his hold on it. Mr. Oli, who is also one of the two chairmen of the ruling party, announced the new committee during a meeting of the party’s Central Committee members close to him, at Baluwatar, the Prime Minister’s official residence. The members of the newly-formed general convention organising committee took oaths in the presence of the Prime Minister. The meeting also decided to remove Naryan Kaji Shrestha as the party spokesperson.
  • Covid-19 – Drugmakers rush to test if vaccines stop virus variant – Ugur Sahin, chief executive of Germany’s BioNTech, has said he needs another two weeks to know if his shot can stop the mutant variant of the virus. Moderna expects immunity from its vaccine to protect against the variant and is performing more tests in coming weeks to confirm. The mutation known as the B.1.1.7 lineage may be up to 70% more infectious and more of a concern for children. It has sown chaos in Britain, prompting a wave of travel bans that are disrupting trade with Europe and threatening to further isolate the country. Germany’s CureVac said it does not expect the variant to affect the efficacy of its experimental shot, which is based on the same messenger RNA (mRNA) technology and is currently in the late stage of clinical trials.
  • World – Russia bans entry of EU officials – Russia is hitting several EU officials with tit-for-tat sanctions in response to penalties imposed by the bloc over the poisoning of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. The Foreign Ministry said that in response to “confrontational” EU actions, it had “decided to expand the list of representatives of EU member states and institutions who will be denied entry to the Russian Federation”. The counter sanctions were announced after Moscow summoned senior diplomats from three EU nations where labs concluded that Mr. Navalny was poisoned in August with Novichok, a Soviet-designed nerve agent.
  • Economy – ‘Centre to set up development finance entity in 3-4 months’ – The government plans to set up a Development Finance Institution (DFI) in the next three to four months with a view to mobilise the ₹111 lakh crore required for funding of the ambitious national infrastructure pipeline. In her last Budget speech, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had proposed to set up DFIs for promoting infrastructure funding. About 7,000 projects have been identified under the National Infrastructure Pipeline with projected investment of ₹111 lakh crore during 2020-25.
  • Education – ‘CBSE Board exams only after February’ – Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ has said that the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Class X and Class XII examinations would only be held after February next year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Usually, the practical exams are conducted in January and theory exams begin in February. He added that the schedule for the exams had not been decided yet. The CBSE had earlier announced that the Board exams in 2021 would be conducted in the written mode and not online.
  • Law & Constitution – HC: None can interfere if adult converts, marries on her own – There can be “no interference if an adult marries as per her choice, converts and refuses to return to her parents”, the Calcutta high court said on December 21 while hearing the plea of a Hindu man whose daughter had converted to marry a Muslim youth. The father, a 44-year-old peasant from Durgapur in Nadia district of West Bengal, said his daughter had left home on September 15 and the next day he learnt that she had converted, taken a Muslim name and got married. He alleged that his daughter was either coerced into doing so or lured. In his petition, the father claimed he wouldn’t have doubted her intention had the marriage been formalised under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 that provides for inter-religious marriages. But she changed her religion and got married within 24 hours.

3.1 Air pollution killed 1.7 million Indians in 2019: Study
 

 
 
What does the study say –
  • The economic loss due to premature deaths and morbidity from air pollution was ₹ 2,60,000 crore or 1.4 per cent of the GDP in India in 2019.
  • Lost output from deaths and diseases due to air pollution led to a loss of 1.4 per cent of the GDP of the country.
  • 1.7 million deaths (18 per cent of the total deaths) in the country were attributable to air pollution in 2019.

  • Various government schemes such as the 'Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana'' and 'Unnat Chulha Abhiyan'' have aided in reducing household air pollution in the country.
  • The findings in this analysis show that while 40 per cent of the disease burden due to air pollution is from lung diseases, the remaining 60 per cent is from ischemic heart disease, stroke, diabetes and neonatal deaths related to preterm birth, thus highlighting the broad ranging impact of air pollution on human health.
