THE HINDU

1.

Will leverage tech to crack down on market manipulators, says SEBI chief

SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey says market regulator is using Al to educate investors; he urges people to use tools such as SEBI Check to deter fraudsters, and warns against financial influencers promising astronomical returns; he says SEBI will make sure there is no instability in the markets.


2.

Institutions, including the courts, must acknowledge error: Singhvi

The measure of a legal system is not how it treats the powerful when they are secure, but how it treats the vulnerable when they are exposed, says senior advocate; democracies strengthen when disagreement remains reasoned, respectful, he says.


3.

'Coalition governments gave India opportunities to reform its federal structure'

A webinar on "Constitution Under the Microscope: Federalism, Free Speech and the Indian Republic", jointly organised by the SRM Institute of Science and Technology (SRMIST) and The Hindu, focused on strained Centre-State ties in many States, the role of Governors, and the importance of free speech.


4.

Why key to coconut cultivation today is sustainability, not productivity

The 'Coconut Promotion Scheme' must not be limited to distributing high-yield seedlings but must prioritise the development and mass multiplication of climate-resilient varieties for farms along the east coast and in peninsular regions, and wilt-tolerant varieties for coconut-growing regions along the west coast.


5.

Sixteenth Finance Commission – misses and concerns

The Sixteenth Finance Commission had significant flexibility in determining its approach and methodology, as its terms of reference followed directly from constitutional provisions, unlike earlier commissions that operated under detailed central directives. This Commission, as before, addressed the two key dimensions of fiscal transfers - namely the vertical and the horizontal.


6.

Skill India as herculean challenges, Galgotian blunders

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity requires a herculean effort. India's demographic dividend, that ends by 2040, is one such opportunity. Several European Union countries and China have successfully financed skill systems. In these countries, approximately 50% of secondary-level students are enrolled in vocational education streams. In India that share is 1.3%, reflective of an educational system that neglected school education till 1990, and vocational education till 2006.


7.

How UGC rules prioritise quick justice

The University Grants Commission's (UGC) 2026 regulation on the promotion of equity in higher education has triggered protests by a section of general category students and a Sadhu sangathan (organisation of ascetics). The matter finally reached the Supreme Court which has put the implementation on hold for its complete vagueness.


8.

U.P. receives over 84% of all out-of-State MPLADS funds

Twenty-one MPs recommended works outside the State or constituency they were elected from or are associated with, using their Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) funds, an analysis by The Hindu has found. And of the more than 18 crore spent on works which were completed based on these recommendations, the vast majority - 84% went to districts in Uttar Pradesh.


9.

Missile interceptors in U.S.-Iran war

How is this conflict different from the 12-day war? What is missile defence and how does it work? How effective are Iron Dome and Patriot systems? Can saturation attacks exhaust interceptors? What systems are Iran deploying?


10.

How do astronauts return from space and survive re-entry?

A launch vehicle's ascent battles gravity to gain orbital velocity, while re-entry is a controlled struggle against the atmosphere to systematically shed that immense kinetic energy through aerobraking, thermal protection and precise guidance within the re-entry corridor.


11.

Arbitrage funds: Profiting from price gaps in volatile market

Volatility is often equated with risk. Yet for arbitrage funds, turbulent markets can briefly expand price spreads, creating opportunities without taking directional bets.


12.

The hidden hub that is transforming livelihoods in a remote tribal village

L&T's skill training centre in Pahadpur village of Mayurbhanj district is attempting to rewrite the future of tribal communities in a remote, underdeveloped area; the hub is fast emerging as an oasis of hope and gainful jobs in a region which is starved of employment options.


13.

Khamenei: the cleric who reshaped Islamic Iran

Imprisoned by the Shah and scarred by assassination attempts, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei rose to become the absolute pivot of Iranian power; the conservative rahbar steered the Islamic Republic through decades of war and sanctions until his death in the joint U.S.-Israeli airstrike that has left a power vacuum in Tehran and a West Asia on the brink of total war.
