NPS में रिटायरमेंट के बाद कैसे और कितनी पेंशन मिलती है? समझिए पूरा कैलकुलेशन

SUMMARY
# NPS से रिटायरमेंट के बाद पेंशन कैसे मिलती है?

NPS (National Pension System) में रिटायरमेंट (60 वर्ष) पर जमा कॉर्पस का अधिकतम 60% एकमुश्त निकाल सकते हैं, जो टैक्स-फ्री है। शेष 40% से एन्युइटी (पेंशन) खरीदनी अनिवार्य है। एन्युइटी ANNUITY प्रदाता कंपनी (LIC आदि) से खरीदी जाती है, जो मासिक पेंशन देती है। उदाहरण: यदि 25 वर्ष की उम्र से ₹5,000 मासिक निवेश करें, 10% औसत रिटर्न मानें, तो 60 वर्ष पर लगभग ₹1.14 करोड़ कॉर्पस बनेगा। 60% यानी ~₹68 लाख एकमुश्त मिलेगा, 40% (~₹45.6 लाख) से एन्युइटी लेने पर लगभग ₹25,000-₹30,000 मासिक पेंशन मिल सकती है। पेंशन राशि एन्युइटी दर, विकल्प और उम्र पर निर्भर करती है। NPS में सेक्शन 80CCD(1B) के तहत ₹50,000 अतिरिक्त टैक्स छूट भी मिलती है।

'They're clearly hoping to kill him in there': Imran Khan's sons raise serious concerns

SUMMARY
Imran Khan's sons, Qasim and Sulaiman, have expressed grave concerns over their father's safety in Adiala Jail, Pakistan. They believe authorities are deliberately endangering the former Prime Minister's life through harsh prison conditions, inadequate medical care, and prolonged solitary confinement. Khan, ousted in 2022, faces multiple charges his supporters call politically motivated. His sons urged international human rights organizations to intervene, warning that the Pakistani establishment intends to silence him permanently. The family demands independent medical access and transparent treatment, accusing the military-backed government of using imprisonment as a tool of persecution against the PTI founder.

Govt in a tangle over Supreme Court ruling on 'creamy layer'

SUMMARY
The Indian government faces a dilemma after the Supreme Court ruled that the "creamy layer" principle must apply to SC/ST reservations in promotions, not just OBCs. This means affluent members within Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes should be excluded from quota benefits. The ruling challenges the government's long-standing policy of blanket reservations for SC/STs. Political parties fear backlash from Dalit communities. The government is considering a constitutional amendment or review petition to navigate this sensitive issue, balancing social justice with judicial directives.

दोहरा मापदंडः गरीबों से हर काम के लिए आधार मांगते हैं, लेकिन सरकारी अधिकारी, कर्मचारी खुद देने को तैयार नहीं

SUMMARY
# आधार कार्ड को लेकर दोहरे मापदंड का विवाद

भारत में आम नागरिकों, खासकर गरीबों से राशन, गैस सब्सिडी, बैंक खाता, स्कूल प्रवेश, अस्पताल सेवा जैसी हर सरकारी योजना में आधार कार्ड अनिवार्य रूप से मांगा जाता है। बिना आधार के उन्हें बुनियादी सुविधाओं से वंचित किया जाता है। वहीं दूसरी ओर, कई सरकारी अधिकारी और कर्मचारी स्वयं पारदर्शिता के लिए अपनी संपत्ति विवरण या आधार सार्वजनिक करने को तैयार नहीं होते। यह दोहरा मापदंड सवाल उठाता है कि जवाबदेही सिर्फ गरीबों पर क्यों? सरकार को समान नियम सबके लिए लागू करने चाहिए।

Uttarakhand waqf board bid to align nikahnama with UCC draws opposition

SUMMARY
The Uttarakhand Waqf Board proposed revising the nikahnama (Islamic marriage contract) to align it with the state's Uniform Civil Code (UCC), implemented in 2025. The draft includes provisions like mandatory marriage registration, minimum age compliance, and banning polygamy—mirroring UCC norms. Muslim clerics and organizations strongly opposed the move, calling it interference in religious practices and Sharia law. Critics argue the Waqf Board overstepped its authority, while supporters say it promotes gender equality and uniformity. The controversy highlights ongoing tensions between religious personal laws and India's push for a common civil code. The board maintained that changes ensure Muslim marriages comply with state law while protecting women's rights.

पंजाब से क्यों हटाए गए भूपेश बघेल? जानें कारण, कांग्रेस में गुटबाजी को लेकर सौंपी थी राहुल गांधी को सीक्रेट रिपोर्ट

SUMMARY
**भूपेश बघेल को पंजाब प्रभारी पद से हटाया गया**

कांग्रेस ने पूर्व छत्तीसगढ़ CM भूपेश बघेल को पंजाब के प्रभारी पद से हटा दिया। बघेल ने पंजाब कांग्रेस में चल रही गुटबाजी और आंतरिक कलह पर राहुल गांधी को एक सीक्रेट रिपोर्ट सौंपी थी। इस रिपोर्ट में पार्टी नेताओं के बीच मतभेद और संगठनात्मक कमजोरियों का विस्तार से जिक्र था। माना जा रहा है कि इस रिपोर्ट से पंजाब के कई वरिष्ठ नेता नाराज हो गए, जिससे पार्टी हाईकमान ने स्थिति संभालने के लिए बघेल को बदलने का फैसला लिया। यह बदलाव पंजाब में पार्टी को मजबूत करने की रणनीति का हिस्सा बताया जा रहा है।

As vultures disappear, minister calls for 'safe zones'

SUMMARY
India's Environment Minister has called for establishing "vulture safe zones" amid a drastic decline in vulture populations across the country. Vultures, vital scavengers that prevent disease spread, have declined by over 99% since the 1990s, primarily due to diclofenac, a veterinary painkiller toxic to vultures. The minister urged banning harmful drugs in designated zones, promoting captive breeding programs, and raising awareness. These safe zones aim to create drug-free areas ensuring vultures can feed safely, aiding population recovery and ecosystem health.
