The All India Council of Human Rights Liberties and Social Justice (AHILS) organized a function in Delhi on December 10, 2017 to honor. On this occasion Swamy Chidanand Saraswati Maharaj said that the basic purpose of human life is to serve the needy and establish peace with love and goodwill in society.

AWARDS 35 years after the ban on cinema was lifted in Saudi Arabia The Ministry of Culture and Information Ministry of Saudi Arabia announced on December 11, 2017 that the restriction imposed on cinema in the country for the past 35 years will be lifted. According to available information, cinemas can be opened in Saudi Arabia by March In Saudi Arabia, the ban was imposed from the beginning of the 1980s, since that time the demand for the ban was being sought. This decision was taken under Program 2030 to improve social and economic status initiated by Prince Mohammed bin Salman. In Saudi Arabia, used to be the first cinema, but it has been a conservative Muslim country, so it has been facing various challenges in this area. Page 1 of 5

2 After this, citing religion in the 1980s, the authorities here decided to close cinemas. Recently, the ban on women driving in Saudi Arabia was lifted. Opening cinemas will encourage economic development and diversity in the society. Scientists have developed technology to remove water pollution from plastic waste Indian scientists have developed the technology to remove water pollution from plastic waste. SCIENCE AND TECHNOL- OGY Under this, the researchers of the Indian Toxicology Research Institute in Lucknow have prepared magnetic-sensitive absorbent material from plastic waste, which can be used to remove the pollution from the biopsy called seaflaxin with water. Scientists have developed effective strategies for transforming polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste into such useful material, which can be helpful in controlling the increasing levels of biological resistant elements in water. With this technique plastic waste will be disposed of as well as water pollution will be removed. Dr Premanjali Roy, who was involved in the study, told that in the controlled conditions, he has been converted into magnetic-sensitive carbon nano-material through carbonization and magnetic transformation by collecting PET refuscions from the surrounding areas. This new low-cost magnetic nano-material, developed by scientists, has the potential to absorb seaflaxin with polluted water. Page 2 of 5

Dinda said that there are strong and rich traditional relations between the two countries. He mentioned India's best generic medicines and said that India is exporting these medicines to more than 200 countries and we have a strong public health system here. INTERNAT- IONAL RELATION Feminism is the most popular word for the year 2017 According to the world's famous online dictionary Merriam-Webster, feminism is the most searched term in the year According to the dictionary, after the women's parade held in Washington on the demand for women's rights and other serious issues, the graph of this word search on the internet has increased rapidly. Words like Dotard, Gafé and Complaisit are also included in this list. The special thing is that most of the words were used in the context of US President Trump's rule or themselves. In December 2017, women were organized in such places for women's rights in many places of the world. Page 3 of 5

4 After this, it became a matter of discussion that what definition is feminism. Hotels and restaurants can sell bottled water at a higher price than MRP: Supreme Court The Supreme Court has given the order on December 13, 2017 that the hotel and restaurant are not obliged to sell the packed products at the maximum retail price (MRP). NATIONAL The Supreme Court said that the Legal Metrology Act will not be applicable on bottled water sold in hotels and restaurants. Therefore, if they sell these products at a higher price than MRP, then no action can be taken against them. Justice R.F. The bench chaired by Nariman gave this decision, saying that hotels and restaurants are a combination of sales and service, there is a pleasant and comfortable environment in which customers are invested very much. This is not a simple sale issue. No person is going to take only bottles of water in the hotel. The Supreme Court has given this decision in the Hotel and Restaurant Associations of India (FHRAI) and the Central Government. FHRAI filed a special leave petition in this regard. American scientists claims Ram Setu to be man-made American scientists recently claimed that about the Ram Sethu,in the sea between India and Sri Lanka is a man-made composition. Scientists believe that 83 kilometer long and deep water is made of limestone rocks made by humans. In this, American geologists have said that this series of long stones made from humans from Pamban Island near Rameswaram in Mannar Island in Sri Lanka is man-made. The geo-scientists have described the picture taken from NASA as natural. Page 4 of 5

5 Scientists found in their analysis that the 30-mile long series is manmade. While analyzing, the geologists found that these stones were brought from a distant place.
