markets and a depreciation of the domestic currency is likely to enhance the competitiveness of the country’s exports while making imports of goods costlier. In a written reply in the Lok Sabha, minister of state for finance Pankaj Chaudhary also said spill-overs from geo-political tensions, aggressive monetary policy tightening across the world and recent surge in crude oil prices are some of the factors exerting pressure on the rupee against the dollar. At the same time, the exchange rate is only one of the several factors that influence demand for exports and imports in an economy, Chaudhary said. These factors include the types of the tradeables (essential or luxury items), availability of substitutes, freight costs and income growth of countries that buy goods and services from India. “Thus, the impact of recent depreciation of the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar, on levels of exports and imports cannot be isolated,” he added. The domestic currency has depreciated by more than 41% against the greenback since May 30, 2014 when one dollar equalled Rs 59.03. He said the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) regulates the foreign exchange market with a view to ensuring its “orderly functioning and development while eschewing undue volatility”. The central bank has announced a raft of steps in recent years to diversify and expand the sources of forex funding to mitigate exchange rate volatility and dampen global spill-overs, Chaudhary said.

North Korea test-fired a intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) powered by solid fuel on Monday, South Korean officials said, in what would be the third such test this year to boost capabilities for launching with little preparation. Seoul did not identify the specific missile, but nuclear-armed North unveiled its solid-fuel Hwasong-18 ICBM at a military parade in February and previously tested it during launches in April and July. Last month North Korea also said it had tested solid-fuel engines for an upcoming new-type of intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM). Here are some characteristics of solid-fuel technology, and how it can help the North improve its missile systems. WHAT ARE SOME ADVANTAGES OF SOLID FUEL? Solid-fuel missiles do not need to be fuelled immediately ahead of launch, are often easier and safer to operate, and require less logistical support, making them harder to detect and more survivable than liquid-fuel weapons. «These capabilities are much more responsive in a time of crisis,» said Ankit Panda, a senior fellow at the U.S.-based Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
