(1) While hearing arguments from Senior Advocate Darius J. Khambata for a tagged matter during the recent Sabarimala case, Justice BV Nagarathna commented on the practice of excommunication of women marrying outside what religious community- regarding it to be based entirely on gender and discriminatory in nature?
According to legend, when refugees from this community first arrived in Gujarat, the local king presented a cup full of milk to signify that his land was already full. In response, a priest gracefully dissolved sugar into the milk symbolizing that their community would peacefully blend in and sweeten the local culture.
(2) The name of this town in Karnataka's Gadag district is a portmanteau of the words for "Elephant" and "Fort”, likely named for the hill fort resembling the animal, built by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
A prominent Chief Justice of India, who headed the first Law Commission, belonged to a family of hereditary scholars hailing from this specific town—a fact reflected in his surname.
Name either the CJI or town in question.
(3) 2026 marks the centenary of the Hilton Young Commission's landmark report, which laid the groundwork for the establishment of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The commission relied heavily on the framework presented in a 1923 text titled “The Problem of the Rupee: Its Origin and Its Solution”.
Who is the author of this text- one of whose many claims to fame includes being a trailblazing economist and the first Indian to pursue a doctorate in economics abroad?
(4) On 30th April 2026, a two-judge bench of the Allahabad High Court noticed that a prefix was missing before the name of Member of Parliament and former Union Minister Anurag Thakur in an FIR. This led to the court observing that according to protocol, this prefix must be used for anyone exercising "sovereign functions" across the three organs of the government- with an exception carved out for civil servants.
What is this prefix?
(5) In May 2026, the Supreme Court heard an appeal challenging a Delhi High Court verdict. The original High Court ruling—which followed the tragic 2016 suicide of Amity law student Sushant Rohilla—had struck down the strict enforcement of a specific minimum threshold requirement, as mandated by the Bar Council of India.
The Supreme Court bench comprising Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta, and Vijay Bishnoi expressed serious reservations about diluting this mandate- remarking that doing away with this would reduce Law School hostels to mere "boarding and lodging facilities."
What kind of regulations are at the centre of this legal debate?
