Dear Aspirants,
We feel immense pleasure in bringing the 'December 2018' edition of our very own 'Masters in Current Affairs', a platform where you get all the exam related information at a single place. It is designed especially for the forthcoming examinations. Its regular sections such as News Maker, News Diary, One-liners etc. cover each and every news in details which is important for examinations. Rest of the news are covered in 'Chalte - Chalte' i.e. one-liner news, which you can find at the bottom of each page.
Some important issues of this month were discussed in featured articles.
One among them is ‘#Me too MOVEMENT’, with many local and international alternatives, is a movement against sexual harassment and sexual assault.#MeToo spread virally in October 2017 as a hashtag used on social media in an attempt to demonstrate
the widespread prevalence of sexual assault and harassment, especially in the workplace. The #MeToo campaign helped women from all around the world in throwing light on sexual abuse. Not only that, it also gave women the opportunity to support each other, to empower themselves and to have a chance to talk about a serious issue that usually remains in the dark. And all the minute details are mentioned inside.
Then an article about ‘END OF SECTION 497 ‘, The Supreme Court's decision to scrap Section 497 of the Indian Penal Code, thereby decriminalising adultery, cannot be seen as a cheer for promiscuity. The fact is that adultery won't get any less harmful for marriage just because it no longer comes under the purview of being a criminal act.
On the contrary, the psychological damage to a marriage is mutually exclusive from legal fiat. The law cannot re-ignite the dying embers of a marriage scorched by suspicion and much more is given the whole article.
Later we’ll see ‘RUPEE CRISIS’, as INDIA could be braced to see its financial troubles deepen, with the rupee languishing even further before stabilizing against the US dollar, according to an economic analyst. The rupee has been crippled by soaring oil prices and higher interest rates, with the crisis-hit currency losing around 15 percent of its value versus the American tender. The Indian currency breached the 74-mark for
the first time ever against the US dollar this month, but the worst could still be yet to come for the rupee. And all the other important details are mentioned inside.
And an article about ‘NOBLE PRIZE 2018’, The Nobel Prize in Physics 2018 was awarded “for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics” with one half to Arthur Ashkin “for the optical tweezers and their application to biological systems” and the other half jointly to Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland “for their method of generating high-intensity,
ultra-short optical pulses” and much more in the article given inside.
