Everyday we read news, but do we do more than read it? The best way to learn from news is to find the issues and facts which we don’t know and research them. Starting today we will try to list some topics to help you do that.

Let’s call this the new avatar of #Back2Basics

Following topics are based on today’s news –

1. GST in the news once again! Since it is a topic which appears so frequently in the news, you must have read many articles and made notes. Answer these questions – Why is GST better than the present system? What is CGST and IGST? What is the purpose and composition of the GST Council?

If you can’t answer these in detail that means you haven’t made notes on them properly. Make these notes. – PRELIMS + MAINS

2. What is quantum communication? Why is it considered so secure? – PRELIMS

3. Lots of news about Sendai Framework. What is it? What is the legal framework for India’s disaster management? – PRELIMS + MAINS

4. Sharia banking in the news. Make notes on it. Include it under the notes you have for financial inclusion.
