India launches first PRAMAAN forest certification for Andhra Pradesh

India has launched its first PRAMAAN forest certification under the Indian Forest and Wood Certification Scheme (IFWCS). Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav formally launched the certification on 1 October 2026. Andhra Pradesh received the country’s first PRAMAAN certificate. The scheme is intended to promote responsible forest management and improve the credibility of India’s forest and wood products. It is linked to sustainability, traceability, and conservation objectives. The initiative is relevant to questions on Indian environmental certification schemes and the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.

AFSPA extended for six months in notified areas of Northeast India

The Ministry of Home Affairs extended the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958, for another six months from 1 October 2026. The extension applies to notified disturbed areas in Manipur, Nagaland, and Arunachal Pradesh. AFSPA provides special powers to the armed forces in areas officially declared disturbed. The continuation reflects the government’s assessment of security conditions in the affected regions. The decision is important for questions on internal security and special legislation. It also involves the constitutional and administrative relationship between the Union government and the northeastern states.
