The SPREE-2025 initiative by ESIC is launched under which Act?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The SPREE-2025 (Scheme for Promoting Registration of Employers and Employees) has been launched under the provisions of the ESI Act, 1948. This Act forms the foundation of India’s Employees’ State Insurance framework, providing health insurance and social security benefits to workers. SPREE-2025, active from 1st July to 31st December 2025, encourages unregistered employers and employees, including temporary and contractual workers, to register voluntarily without the fear of retrospective penalties or inspections. By simplifying compliance and promoting wider registration, the initiative strengthens India’s social security net while ensuring that more workers receive the health and insurance benefits guaranteed under the ESI Act, 1948.

Which constitutional provisions were highlighted by the Supreme Court while addressing discrimination against meritorious PwD candidates being denied upward mobility to unreserved seats?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The Supreme Court emphasised Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution while questioning the practice of forcing meritorious Persons with Disabilities (PwD) to remain in reserved seats even when they qualify in the unreserved/general category. Article 14 guarantees equality before the law, while Article 16 ensures equal opportunity in matters of public employment. Denial of upward mobility to PwD candidates was termed “hostile discrimination,” as it unfairly restricts their opportunities compared to SC/ST/OBC candidates who enjoy such mobility. By invoking these provisions, the Court reinforced that reservation is about inclusion and enabling equality, not charity, and must ensure fairness, dignity, and true empowerment for PwDs.

How many consecutive days of detention lead to automatic removal of PM, CMs, and Ministers under the 2025 Bill?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The Constitution (One Hundred and Thirtieth Amendment) Bill, 2025, introduced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, specifies that the Prime Minister, Chief Ministers, and other ministers will be automatically removed from office if they are detained for 30 consecutive days on charges that carry a minimum sentence of five years. This clause strengthens accountability and ensures that individuals holding the highest executive positions cannot continue in office while under prolonged detention. By fixing the threshold at 30 days, the law balances due process with public trust in governance, preventing misuse of power and safeguarding democratic integrity.
