Followed by 10 practice questions.

1. Agriculture

Khet Bachao Abhiyan–Rabi 2026 Launched from Karnal, Haryana (22 October – 30 November 2026)

Why in news: Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Shivraj Singh Chouhan launched the nationwide ‘Khet Bachao Abhiyan–Rabi 2026’ from Karnal, Haryana, on 22 October 2026. The campaign runs until 30 November 2026 and focuses on soil health and sustainable farming for the Rabi season.

⭐ Exam importance: High — farm campaigns, their launch place, partner bodies (ICAR, KVK, ATMA) and the Soil Health Card link are regular questions; the name is easily confused with the 2025 ‘Viksit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan’.

Key facts

Correct name: Khet Bachao Abhiyan–Rabi 2026 — the Rabi edition of the soil-health campaign; it is not the Viksit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan.
Scale: Target of about 1 crore participants through ATMA and ICAR; about 4,150 teams of KVKs and ATMA; more than 12,000 scientists and ATMA functionaries.
Focus areas: Balanced fertiliser use based on soil testing; crop diversification towards oilseeds, pulses and horticulture; use of fallow fields after paddy; crop-residue management; natural farming; water conservation.
Farmer services: Farmer IDs, awareness of crop insurance (PMFBY) and saturation of Kisan Credit Cards (KCC).
Who implements: State Agriculture Departments, Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs), ICAR institutes, State Agricultural Universities and ATMAs; activities include Kisan Chaupals and field demonstrations down to Gram Panchayat level.

Two editions of Khet Bachao Abhiyan in 2026
Edition	Period	Launched from
Kharif (first)	1–30 June 2026	Ramasiya village, Raisen district, Madhya Pradesh
Rabi 2026	22 October – 30 November 2026	Karnal, Haryana

Static GK link

ICAR: Indian Council of Agricultural Research — set up on 16 July 1929; headquarters New Delhi; works under the Department of Agricultural Research and Education (DARE).
KVK and ATMA: KVKs are district-level farm science centres (first KVK: Puducherry, 1974); ATMA (Agricultural Technology Management Agency) is the district-level farm extension body.
Soil Health Card: Scheme launched on 19 February 2015 at Suratgarh, Rajasthan; gives nutrient status of soil and fertiliser advice; 5 December is World Soil Day.
Rabi season: Sown October–December, harvested March–April; main crops wheat, mustard, gram, barley and peas.

2. Space — Navigation (Andhra Pradesh)

GSLV-F18 to Launch NavIC Satellite NVS-03 from Sriharikota on 30 October 2026

Why in news: ISRO announced on 22 October 2026 that GSLV-F18 will launch NVS-03, the third second-generation NavIC navigation satellite, on 30 October 2026 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC SHAR), Sriharikota, in Tirupati district of Andhra Pradesh. The launch was earlier targeted for mid-October.

⭐ Exam importance: High — NavIC, launch vehicles and Sriharikota (Andhra Pradesh) are favourite science-and-technology questions; the NVS-02 failure is a likely trap.

Key facts

Vehicle: GSLV-F18 is a flight of the GSLV Mk II — a three-stage rocket whose third stage is an indigenous cryogenic stage.
Satellite: NVS-03 weighs about 2,232 kg (as reported), has a planned life of about 12 years and carries an indigenous rubidium atomic clock built by the Space Applications Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad.
Place in the series: Third satellite of the NVS (second-generation) series and the 12th satellite of the IRNSS/NavIC programme overall.
Why it matters: Ageing satellites have weakened NavIC; standalone positioning needs at least four working satellites, so NVS-03 is meant to help restore the service.
NVS-02 failure: NVS-02 was launched on GSLV-F15 on 29 January 2025 (ISRO's 100th launch from Sriharikota) but stayed in an elliptical orbit because the valve feeding oxidiser to its orbit-raising engine did not open.
NVS-01: First of the series, launched on GSLV-F12 on 29 May 2023; it was the first NavIC satellite to fly an indigenous rubidium atomic clock.

Satellite navigation systems of the world
System	Country / bloc	Coverage
GPS	USA	Global
GLONASS	Russia	Global
Galileo	European Union	Global
BeiDou	China	Global
QZSS	Japan	Regional
NavIC (IRNSS)	India	Regional — India and about 1,500 km around it

Static GK link

NavIC: Navigation with Indian Constellation — the operational name of IRNSS; offers a Standard Positioning Service for civilians and a Restricted Service for authorised users.
GSLV vs PSLV: GSLV Mk II has 3 stages (solid core with liquid strap-ons, liquid second stage, cryogenic third stage); PSLV has 4 stages (solid, liquid, solid, liquid).
Sriharikota: SDSC SHAR is on a barrier island between Pulicat Lake and the Bay of Bengal, in Tirupati district, Andhra Pradesh; named after former ISRO chairman Satish Dhawan.

3. Space — Missions

ISRO's SpaDeX Mission Ends as Both Satellites Re-enter the Atmosphere (12–13 October 2026)

Why in news: ISRO's Space Docking Experiment (SpaDeX) came to an end in October 2026 after its two satellites, SDX01 and SDX02, re-entered Earth's atmosphere about seven hours apart on 12–13 October 2026, closing a mission of nearly 21 months.

⭐ Exam importance: High — the launch vehicle, launch date and India's ‘fourth country to dock’ status are standard space questions.

Key facts

Launch: PSLV-C60 from Sriharikota on 30 December 2024 (not 13 December); two satellites of about 220 kg each placed in a roughly 475 km circular orbit.
Roles: SDX01 was the ‘Chaser’ and SDX02 the ‘Target’.
First docking: 16 January 2025 — India became the fourth country to dock two spacecraft in orbit, after the USA, Russia and China.
Later milestones: Undocking on 13 March 2025; a second docking on 20 April 2025, along with transfer of electrical power between the two satellites.
Re-entry: SDX01 came down over the southern Indian Ocean (night of 12 October IST) and SDX02 over the North Pacific (early 13 October IST) — not a single re-entry over the South Pacific.

Static GK link

Why docking matters: Needed for Chandrayaan-4 (lunar sample return) and for assembling the Bharatiya Antariksh Station.
Why satellites fall: In low Earth orbit, thin atmospheric drag slowly lowers the orbit until the satellite burns up on re-entry.
PSLV: Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle — four stages; its first successful flight was PSLV-D2 in 1994.

4. Environment & Climate Finance

Loss and Damage Fund Sets Aside About USD 21.6 Million for Flood-Hit Nepal

Why in news: At its first extraordinary (virtual) meeting on 22 October 2026, the Board of the Fund for responding to Loss and Damage (FRLD) set aside about USD 21.6 million for Nepal after the Bhotekoshi floods of 26 August 2026. It was reported as the first time the Fund has earmarked money for a particular country. Nepal must still submit a funding request for Board approval, so the money has not yet been received.

⭐ Exam importance: High — climate-finance funds, COP venues and the trustee of the loss and damage fund are frequent environment questions.

Key facts

Amount: About USD 20 million for the response plus about USD 1.6 million in oversight fees; USD 20 million is the most a country can seek in one request.
Disaster: An ice-and-rock avalanche from the slopes of Langtang Lirung triggered floods along the Bhotekoshi–Trishuli river system; Nepal's disaster authority counted over 1,300 deaths.
Route used: Nepal is allowed to apply outside the normal window under the Fund's Barbados Implementation Modalities (BIM) — a USD 250 million start-up phase for 2025–2026.
Pledges: Total pledges are about USD 822 million; contributions are voluntary.
