Pool Food War Diversity prevention Courts Updates Mint Explainer: Can companies challenge the government’s LNG diversions in court?

On 9 March the union government issued an order under the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 that discouraged companies which receive pooled gas supplies from legally challenging its decision to divert natural gas to priority sectors.The move comes amid concerns over possible supply disruptions caused by the ongoing West Asia conflict, which has affected liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.Mint explains what the order says, the legal basis for it, and whether courts can still entertain challenges from affected companies.The ministry of petroleum and natural gas issued the natural gas (supply regulation) order, 2026 to deal with potential LNG shortages.

Senior citizens increasingly find themselves in court, fighting to reclaim homes they once “gifted” to their children or daughters-in-law, while heirs insist that “a gift is forever”.Under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, a gift is generally irrevocable unless it carries a valid, agreed contingency for revocation under Section 126. Recent Supreme Court rulings confirm that if a gift deed is absolute and doesn’t include a revocation clause, the donor (the person gifting) cannot cancel it on their own.

Indian banks are losing ground among working-age savers, even as retirees return in growing numbers to park money in fixed deposits and savings accounts.Recent data from the Reserve Bank of India shows the share of deposits held by working Indians aged 25 to less than 60 has steadily declined over the past two years, highlighting how younger savers are no longer reliant on banks to grow their money.The working population held 55.46% of retail deposits in December 2025, down from 57.41% in March 2023, the earliest comparable data. That is a change of 195 basis points (bps).By contrast, the share of depositors aged 60 and above rose sharply to 40.6%, from 38.25% as of March 2023, up 235 bps.

COST UPS Waters security Food Research Updates Mint Explainer | Direct seeded rice saves water and costs. What’s holding back farmers?

Mint explainsDSR refers to a cultivation method where seeds are sown directly into the field without transplanting seedlings, saving water, labour, and time compared to traditional methods.This eliminates several stages involved in conventional rice farming such as nursery preparation, ploughing, puddling and transplanting. In the traditional system, farmers grow seedlings in nurseries and later transplant them into flooded, puddled fields.Puddling is particularly concerning from an environmental perspective because it releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas.Though not a new technique, DSR is increasingly seen as a transformative approach to rice cultivation as India faces growing concerns over groundwater depletion, labour shortages and climate sustainability.Experts say the technique can play an important role in addressing groundwater depletion, particularly in major rice-growing states where intensive irrigation for paddy has put pressure on water resources.Producing a kilogram of rice requires 3,000–5,000 litres of water under conventional methods.

markets UPS BLOCK Food War Updates peace Why Indian kitchens need to quit gas and go electric: In war or peace, it’ll serve us better

The war in West Asia that has blocked supplies of crude oil, liquefied natural gas (LNG) and refinery products from the Gulf serves India a reality check on the soundness of relying on imported hydrocarbons for cooking food. It is high time we began to wean our kitchens off liquid petroleum gas (LPG) and piped natural gas (PNG); while LPG is essentially a mixture of propane and butane, PNG is mostly methane, like the compressed natural gas (CNG) that is used by vehicles as a low-carbon substitute for petrol and diesel. We should cook, instead, on electric stoves that run on power generated from domestic coal and renewables.Since we have our own coal, its supply cannot be disrupted by a war abroad.
