Lok Sabha Passes Bill Recognising Amravati as Andhra Pradesh's Sole Capital

The Lok Sabha passed a bill on April 1 designating Amravati as the sole capital of Andhra Pradesh, resolving long-standing disputes over capital city status. This legislative move aims to provide clarity for infrastructure development and administrative functions in the state. The bill overrides previous proposals for a three-capital system, streamlining governance. Rajya Sabha also passed the CAPF Bill on the same day, enhancing Central Armed Police Forces' operational framework. The decisions come amid ongoing political preparations for regional polls.

India Begins Census 2027 with Self-Enumeration Phase

India launched Census 2027 on April 1, starting with self-enumeration in Delhi where President Droupadi Murmu, Vice President C P Radhakrishnan, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi participated. This digital-first census introduces self-filling options via mobile apps for efficiency and accuracy. The process marks a shift from traditional door-to-door enumeration, aiming to cover over 140 crore population. It follows delays from the 2021 census postponement due to COVID-19. Full rollout is planned nationwide soon.
