ENVIRONMENT

Five cheetah cubs born at Kuno National Park, taking India’s cheetah population to 60

Five cheetah cubs were born at Kuno National Park in Madhya Pradesh. The cubs have a Botswana-origin father and an India-origin mother. Their birth takes India’s total cheetah population to 60. Of these, 41 cheetahs were born in India. The development strengthens Project Cheetah’s captive-management and conservation objectives. It also indicates the continuing establishment of a breeding population in India. The new lineage is significant for biodiversity conservation and wildlife-management studies.[8]

POLITY

Six Assembly bypolls scheduled across West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Assam

Six by-elections were scheduled for October 6, 2026. The contests are spread across West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Assam. The polls are being watched as an early indicator of post-election political trends. The bypolls follow major political changes in the affected regions. Their outcomes may influence party strategies and local political alignments. The contests are also significant for assessing voter responses to newly established political orders. The results are expected to have political rather than parliamentary significance unless they alter the balance in a legislative assembly.[5][8]
