  1. Police under central Home Ministry use force against protesting doctors: doctors have been protesting to expedite placements of freshers for 11 days; the police slaps cases and uses violence against the doctors; the delays have been caused due to the Modi government’s delays at the Supreme Court in validating the law; the Modi government arbitrarily chose Rs. 66,000/month as the line below which people are considered economically weaker sections

  2. Assam eviction horror: A few weeks ago, people and the police beat up residents claiming they were illegal immigrants; CM Himanta Biswa Sarma and his government made allegations against the victims of violence; now a fact-finding report finds they were not illegal migrants

  3. Two new vaccines cleared: After months of delays, the union government cleared two more vaccines (Corbevax and Covovax) and one anti-viral drug (Molnupiravir) to boost the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic

  4. A Christmas day surprise for Mother Teresa’s charity: The union government blocks foreign funding for Mother Teresa charity; The charity runs projects like homes for abandoned children, schools, clinics and hospices; In 2018, the Modi government snuck in amendments exempting political parties from similar scrutiny

  5. NREGA demand rises, indicating lack of employment growth: A larger share of young Indians are seeking work under India's rural jobs guarantee programme — a scheme which acts as a backstop in times of stress
