8 FUN FACT Yesterday's Answer: Nuclear Command Authority is responsible For command, control and operational decisions regarding India s nuclear weapons programme. It has Executive Council, which is headed by National Security Advisor and Political Council, headed by Prime Minister of India. Photovoltaics is the direct conversion of light into electricity at the atomic level. PV gets its name from the process of converting light (photons) to electricity (voltage), which is called the PV effect. The photoelectric effect was first noted by a French physicist, Edmund Bequerel, in The first photovoltaic module was built by Bell Laboratories in Which conferences is considered as marking the birth of International Environmental Policy?

9 Assam Citizenship Bill Disquiet in Assam should convince the Centre to reconsider the new Citizenship Bill In Assam, where illegal migration, in fact as well as in exaggeration, has defined the political landscape since the 1980s, public hearings and meetings held by a Joint Parliamentary Committee over the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2016, have inevitably taken place in a charged atmosphere. It precludes individuals from six religious minorities from three Muslim-dominant countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan) from being defined as illegal immigrants under the Foreigners Act, The intent behind this Bill, promised by the BJP in the run-up to the 2014 general election, is to clear a path to citizenship for minorities persecuted in the three countries.

10 Continue.. The NRC puts the onus on migrants to prove their status of residence prior to 1971 based on a series of documents that would lead to registration as a citizen. As of now Assam has six detention centres for illegal migrants. The Bill conflates the definition of migrants, people who shift voluntarily, with that of refugees, who are forced to do so under duress giving them a claim to humanitarian protection. Clearly, the Bill is seen by detractors to be breaking the general consensus on the NRC forged after years of political differences and legal challenges to the Assam Accord, of which the ongoing exercise to update the register is an outcome.

11 Is it possible to slow global warming? There is growing frustration after more than two decades of intense climate talks This is an important year for making progress on the Paris Agreement (PA), which was discussed at the climate meeting called the Conference of Parties (COP-21) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in December The Paris Agreement entered into force in November In a Bonn meeting the operational guidelines for implementing the PA were to be discussed and agreed upon by all parties. This meeting was the 48 th session of the UNFCCC Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI) and Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA), referred to as SB48. With insufficient progress towards goals, another interim meeting has been proposed in Bangkok ahead of COP-24 in Katowice, Poland, in December A good draft on the rulebook ought to be ready before the COP.

12 Continue.. The roadblocks at the Bonn meeting seemed predictable. On the issue of the NDCs, the question was the scope of the rulebook. Developing countries want them to cover mitigation targets, adaptation and the means of implementation for the NDCs. Developed or rich countries would like the rulebook to be limited to mitigation, the reduction of greenhouse gases. At the Copenhagen summit, it was agreed that from 2020, rich countries would provide a minimum of $100 billion each year to poor and developing countries. The issues related to loss and damage (L&D) are another thorn in the negotiations. L&D is a means to provide assistance to poor countries that experience severe impacts from climate change but have contributed very little to the greenhouse gases responsible for the warming and its effects.

13 Continue.. The Nationally Determined Contributions put forth prior to the Paris COP would lead up to The current NDCs were implemented, the world would be on track to be warmer by about 3 Celsius. The discussions at Bangkok in early September are therefore crucial and continue the incomplete task from this Bonn meeting. The UN is also expected to release the report on the impacts from a 1.5 C warming around the same time. Given the growing frustration of experienced negotiators on all sides after more than two decades of intense climate talks, it appears that pressure from youth, especially in rich countries, is vital.
