Korea tests ‘hydrogen’ bomb, sparks outrage {IR} News: North Korea tested a ‘hydrogen’ bomb which it can mount on a missile, declaring its biggest-ever nuclear detonation a “perfect success.” Beyond News: Experts are judging it by the its explosion, and it was appeared to be its most powerful explosion yet. This sparked a strong rebuke from U.S. President Donald Trump who slammed the act “dangerous.” But world reaction to the country’s sixth nuclear test was swift and angry. China rebuked its ally and began emergency monitoring for radiation at its border with the North.

CLICK HERE TO SEE DATE WISE CURRENT AFFAIRS To clear the path ahead {Social issue} News: For the first time in Indian history talaq-e-bid’awas specifically debated and set aside by the Supreme Court. Beyond News: In the 2002Shamim Aracase a two-judge bench of the Apex Court had delegitimised this medieval practice only when it was not properly pronounced and preceded by attempts at reconciliation. But the latest ruling completely and unconditionally invalidates talaq-e-bid’aand renders it bad in law . The Koranic procedure of talaq is the only way by which a Muslim husband will be able to divorce his wife from now on. Implications of verdict: The biggest goal attainment for Muslim women is the realisation that talaq-e-bid’a in any of his manifestations will not dissolve the marriage. There…

CLICK HERE TO SEE DATE WISE CURRENT AFFAIRS Mumbai’s flood {Disaster Management} News: The return of the deluge to Mumbai and the paralysis suffered by the city bring up the question of why Indian cities are unable to improve their resilience to extreme weather events. Beyond News: All this brings back memories of the disaster of 2005 caused by over 99 cm of rainfall in a 24-hour period leaving hundreds dead. Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology in Mumbai have, for instance, provided pathways for nearly 450 sq. km of the city to better prepare for monsoonal floods, using the worst-case scenario of a dozen years ago as the baseline.

CLICK HERE TO SEE DATE WISE CURRENT AFFAIRS Agreeing to disagree{International Relations} News: One hopes the decision on Doklam, which comes a week before Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to go to China, will guide the bilateral spirit beyond the September 3-5 BRICS summit to be held in Xiamen. Chinese stand: Statements from China during the stand-off indicate that it no longer recognises the gains made in the Special Representative talks in 2012. Nor does it regard the India-Bhutan-China tri-junction near Batang-La to have been settled. India's Stand: India has made it clear that it does not consider the Sikkim boundary settled either, and both sides will have to walk swiftly to come back to some semblance of an accord on such basic issues before they can move further.…
