The Indian Space Research Organisation or ISRO is going to attempt a brave mission to create history, yet again. The Indian space organisation is planning to launch the Aditya-L1 observatory, on board the PSLV-C57 rocket on September 2, 2023, from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR Sriharikota, India. The mission is to place the Aditya L1 observatory at Lagrange Point 1 or L1, a special point between the sun and the Earth, from where it will be able to study the star with an uninterrupted view. For this mission, ISRO is going to spend over Rs 400 crores.

The caste census in Bihar is kicking up a storm. While the ruling Grand Alliance, comprising the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), Janata Dal-United (JD-U) and the Congress in Bihar, is supporting the activity and wants a thorough caste census, the BJP at the state level seems reluctant to express either support or resistance to it. However, the BJP at the Centre, as per the affidavit filed in the Supreme Court, seems against the act, submitting an affidavit which first read: “No other body under the Constitution or otherwise is entitled to conduct the exercise of either census or any action akin to census.” It was later modified to – “Census is a statutory process governed by the Census Act of 1948, which was enacted in the exercise of the powers under Entry 69 of List I of the Constitution’s Seventh Schedule and that the said Act empowers only the Central Government to conduct the Census.” But what is the row over it?
