Telangana celebrates 12th Formation Day; statehood journey highlighted

Telangana marked its 12th Formation Day on 2 June 2026, commemorating its creation as India’s 29th state in 2014 after a prolonged statehood movement.[1] Official functions were held across the state, with the government highlighting welfare schemes and development indicators since bifurcation from Andhra Pradesh.[1] Leaders recalled the role of various organisations and political parties in the Telangana movement and paid tribute to those who lost their lives during protests.[1] The day also saw contrasting narratives from ruling and opposition parties on issues such as employment, irrigation projects and fiscal health.[1] Cultural programmes showcasing Telangana’s distinct identity, including Bathukamma and Bonalu traditions, were organised.[1] The event reinforced debates on federalism, resource sharing and the impact of state reorganisation on regional aspirations.[1] For aspirants, Telangana Formation Day is important for questions on Indian federalism, state formation chronology and recent political history.

POLITY

Supreme Court strength rises to 37 judges after new appointments

The strength of judges in the Supreme Court of India has risen to 37, one short of the newly upgraded sanctioned strength of 38.[1] The increase follows the appointment and swearing-in of new judges recommended earlier by the Supreme Court Collegium.[1] This expansion aims to address mounting case backlogs and reduce delays in constitutional and appellate matters.[1] The sanctioned strength was recently enhanced by law to reflect growing litigation and the need for faster adjudication.[1] With these appointments, the court moves closer to full sanctioned capacity, though vacancies remain to be filled. The development renews discussion on judicial appointments, collegium functioning and the need for broader institutional reforms. For exams, details like current sanctioned strength and actual working strength are relevant data points.
