Legal Current Affairs for 24 March 2026

It is the difference between amount of energy the Earth receives from the Sun (incoming solar radiation minus reflected solar radiation) and amount of energy the Earth radiates back into space (outgoing long-wave radiation). (see infographic)
o “Positive” EEI: Earth is gaining energy and heating “Negative” EEI: Earth is losing energy and cooling
EEI measures rate of the heat accumulation by anthropogenic GHG emissions in climate system and provides a comprehensive picture of warming.
Reasons for increase in EEI: Rising concentrations of GHG; reductions in aerosol emissions; increases in trace gases and water vapour (decreases outgoing long-wave radiation); decreased reflection by clouds and sea ice.

Launched by: Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, in partnership with Google and YouTube.
Aim: Train 15,000 participants from creative and media sectors.
Implemented through: Indian Institute of Creative Technologies (IICT)
About MyWAVES
It is a structured platform for user-generated content (UGC) that enables citizens to create, upload and share content on WAVES OTT platform of Prasar Bharati.

Genesis: Established in 2021, based on Riyadh Initiative launched during Saudi Arabia’s G20 Presidency (2020).
About: A global platform of specialised anti-corruption law enforcement authorities.
Aim: Transnational cooperation world-wide to detect, investigate and prosecute corruption cases.
Membership: Open to anti-corruption law enforcement authorities of all UN Member States and States parties to UN Convention against Corruption (UNCAC). India’s Central Bureau of Investigation and Directorate of Enforcement are its members.
Supported by: UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), which provides its secretariat.
GlobE Secure Communications Platform (SCP): Provides practical support to investigators and prosecutors for swift, secure exchange of information etc.

Discovery: Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes.
Superconductivity is the property of certain materials to conduct direct current (DC) electricity without energy loss when they are cooled below a critical temperature (referred to as Tc).
Tc can be defined as the temperature at which a material exhibits superconductivity.
Two basic properties:
○ No resistance to the passage of electrical current.
○ External magnetic fields will not penetrate but remain at its surface. This field expulsion phenomenon is known as the Meissner effect.
Applications: MRI machines, particle accelerators (LHC), maglev trains, high-efficiency power transmission, and quantum computing etc.

Announced: Every year on 23rd January, the birth anniversary of Subhash Chandra Bose.
Instituted by: Government of India.
Award Categories: Individual and Institution.
Field: To recognise and acknowledge the invaluable contributions of individuals and institutions in the field of disaster management.
Eligibility: Both Indian citizens and institutions are eligible

Launched In: 2021.
Aim: Brings together public and private sector partners to scale impactful agri-tech solutions and accelerate transformation of global food systems.
Key Focus Areas: Inclusivity (towards small holder famers, etc.); Sustainability (reducing environmental footprint); Efficiency (minimising losses and wastage).
Used by four Indian states, namely, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, and Madhya Pradesh from 2021 to 2024.
