Explained: What are Green Crackers - SWAS, STAR and SAFAL?

Firecrackers are enjoyed by most of the children in the Diwali festival. And every time it is seen that due to crackers air pollution increases (esp. at the time of Diwali, particularly due to  the post-harvest  'parali' or stubble burning in the agricultural fields of Punjab, Haryana and Western UP ) and affects health.

Role of women officers in Indian armed forces

Representative Image In light of the recent Supreme Court verdict, some important questions (and answers) about the role of women officers in the Indian armed forces. When did the armed forces begin inducting women? The army, air force and navy began inducting women as short-service commission (SSC) officers in 1992. This was the first time women were allowed to join the military outside the medical stream. Initially, they could serve for five years, and their service could be extended by another five years. In 2006, a policy revision allowed them to serve for a maximum of 14 years as SSC officers. Unlike male officers, women can join only through SSC; they are not given ab initio permanent commission in any of the armed forces Are women allowed to serve in combat positions?
