Maharashtra postpones Teacher Eligibility Test 2026 after alleged question paper leak

The Maharashtra government postponed the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) 2026 a day before it was scheduled to be held after parts of the question paper were allegedly leaked.[1] The exam was meant to certify eligibility of candidates for primary and upper-primary teaching posts in the state’s schools.[1] Following reports of a leak, authorities cancelled the exam to protect its integrity and announced that a fresh date will be notified later.[1] Police have initiated an investigation into the source and extent of the leak, including possible involvement of coaching centres and printing officials.[1] The incident has affected thousands of candidates who had travelled to examination centres and made logistical arrangements. It also raises concerns about recurring paper leak episodes in recruitment exams across Indian states. The government has indicated that stricter security and digital measures will be put in place before rescheduling the test.[1] The episode is likely to trigger administrative and legislative discussions on exam reforms and penal provisions for leaks.

India invokes emergency powers to boost LPG production amid Middle East supply disruption

The Government of India has invoked emergency powers directing state-run and private refiners to maximise liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) production to avert a cooking fuel shortage.[2] The move follows disruptions in LPG supplies from the Middle East linked to the ongoing U.S.-Israel war on Iran, which has impacted shipping and supply routes.[2] Indian firms have raised domestic LPG prices for the first time in about a year as global prices surged.[2] The government order asks refiners to prioritise LPG over certain export-oriented products and to optimise refinery configurations accordingly.[2] India, one of the world’s largest LPG consumers, relies heavily on imports to meet household demand, especially under schemes like Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana.[2] Officials say the emergency step is temporary but necessary to stabilise domestic availability and prevent cylinder shortages. The situation also highlights India’s vulnerability to geopolitical shocks in global energy markets.[2]
