About MGNREGA
The MGNREGA stands for Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act of 2005.
This is labour law and social security measure that aims to guarantee the ‘Right to Work’.
The act was first proposed in 1991 by P.V. Narasimha Rao.
Its objectives
To enhance the livelihood security of the rural poor by generating wage employment opportunities.
To create a rural asset base which would enhance productive ways of employment, augment and sustain a rural household income.
Features of the Scheme
MGNREGA is unique in not only ensuring at least 100 days of employment to the willing unskilled workers, but also in ensuring an enforceable commitment on the implementing machinery i.e., the State Governments, and providing a bargaining power to the labourers.
The failure of provision for employment within 15 days of the receipt of job application from a prospective household will result in the payment of unemployment allowance to the job seekers.
Employment is to be provided within 5 km of an applicant’s residence, and minimum wages are to be paid.
Thus, employment under MGNREGA is a legal entitlement.

What is a Time Capsule?
It is a container of any size or shape, which accommodates documents, photos and artefacts typical of the current era and is buried underground, for future generations to unearth.
The time capsule requires special engineering so that the contents don’t decay, even if pulled out after a century.
Material such as aluminium and stainless steel are used for the encasing, and documents are often reproduced on acid-free paper.
While the term “time capsule” was coined in the 20th century, among the earliest examples of one dates back to 1777, found by historians inside the statue of Jesus Christ in Spain during its restoration.
There’s a global society:
International Time Capsule Society
The International Time Capsule Society (ITCS), based in the US and formed in 1990, is now defunct but continues estimating the number of time capsules in the world.
As per its database, there are “10,000-15,000 times capsules worldwide”.
Are there any time capsules in India?
There have been a number of prominent examples.
One time capsule, outside the Red Fort and placed underground in 1972 by then PM Indira Gandhi, was dug out by the subsequent government.
Other time capsules are at a school in Mumbai, IIT-Kanpur, LPU in Jalandhar, and Mahatma Mandir in Gandhinagar.
The Red Fort time capsule was supposed to be dug out after 1,000 years.
Significance of time capsules
Historians often criticize the idea of being motivated.
This exercise is inevitably a subjective exercise, geared towards glorification not to construct the real picture.
All historians look at this time capsule exercise with suspicion.
It’s not a valid historical method — who decides what matter, what artefacts, written documents are going into it?

About eVIN
The eVIN is an innovative technological solution aimed at strengthening immunization supply chain systems across the country.
This is being implemented under the National Health Mission (NHM) by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
It aims to provide real-time information on vaccine stocks and flows, and storage temperatures across all cold chain points in the country.
This system has been used during the COVID pandemic for ensuring the continuation of the essential immunization services and protecting our children and pregnant mothers against vaccine-preventable diseases.
Components of eVIN
eVIN combines state-of-the-art technology, a strong IT infrastructure and trained human resource to enable real-time monitoring of stock and storage temperature of the vaccines kept in multiple locations across the country.
At present, 23,507 cold chain points across 585 districts of 22 States and 2 UTs routinely use the eVIN technology for efficient vaccine logistics management.
Benefits of eVIN
It has helped create a big data architecture that generates actionable analytics encouraging data-driven decision-making and consumption-based planning.
It helps in maintaining optimum stocks of vaccines leading to cost savings. Vaccine availability at all times has increased to 99% in most health centres in India.
While instances of stock-outs have reduced by 80%, the time taken to replenish stocks has also decreased by more than half, on an average.
This has ensured that every child who reaches the immunization session site is immunized, and not turned back due to unavailability of vaccines.

About National Transit Pass System
The NTPS is an online system for issuing transit permits for timber, bamboo and other forest produce.
This system helps in monitoring and keeping records of transit permits for inter-state and intra-state transportation of timber and bamboo from private lands/government/private depot and other minor forest produce.
E-pass will be issued for transit through the desktop-based web portal as well as a mobile application.
It will bring ease of business and expedite the issuance of transit permits for timber, bamboo and other minor forest produce without physically going to forest offices.
It will be functional in Madhya Pradesh and Telangana for now on a pilot basis.
