NATIONAL WATER MISSION AWARDS, 2019
• NWM,Department of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation, Ministry of Jal Shakti has initiated the ‘National Water Mission Awards’.
• The Soil and Water Conservation Department Punjab bagged National Water Mission Award for efficient utilization of treated waste water for irrigation purposes from Sewerage Treatment Plant, Phagwara in Kapurthala district.
Aim:
• To recognize excellence in water conservation, efficient water use and sustainable water management practices.
Why awards?
• One of the strategies of NWM is to incentivize the organization/ companies through awards for water conservation and efficient use of water.
• Hence, the NWM has initiated the ‘National Water Mission Awards’ to recognize excellence in water conservation, efficient water use and sustainable water management practices.
Categories:
The awards are given in ten categories defined under five goals of NWM. The categories are as follow:
- Comprehensive Water Data Base in Public Domain.
- Assessment of the impact of Climate Change on Water Resources.
- Promotion of citizen and state action for water conservation, augmentation
- Focused attention to vulnerable areas including over-exploited area.
- Increasing Water use efficiency by 20% (Local Individuals/Farmers/Citizens)
- Increasing Water use efficiency by 20% (Water Users Associations/ Self Help Groups/ Resident Welfare Associations).
- Increasing Water use efficiency by 20% (Public Agencies –ULBs/Cities, Govt Organisations).
- Increasing Water use efficiency by 20% (Industries/Corporate).
- Increasing Water use efficiency by 20% (Small and Medium Enterprises).
- Promotion of basin level integrated water resources management

*The 23rd edition of the Trilateral Maritime Exercise MALABAR, is scheduled between the navies of India, Japan and USA from 26th September to 4th October 2019 off the coast of Sasebo, Japan.*
MALABAR 2019 would endeavour to further strengthen India - Japan - US Naval cooperation.
The Exercise would encompass conduct of operations in the surface, sub-surface and air domains, and focus on Anti-Submarine Warfare, Anti-Air and Anti-Surface Firings, Maritime Interdiction Operations (MIO) including tactical scenario based Exercise at Sea.
Background: Malabar exercise began in 1992 as a bilateral naval exercise between india and the U.S. With the inclusion of japan in 2015, it was expanded into a trilateral format.

New Millennium Indian Technology Leadership Initiative (NMITLI)
• The President, Shri Ram Nath Kovind, unveiled the first Indigenous High Temperature Fuel Cell System.
• It is developed by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in partnership with Indian industries under India’s flagship program named “New Millennium Indian Technology Leadership Initiative (NMITLI)”.
Principle
• The 5.0 kW fuel cell system generates power in a green manner using methanol / bio-methane, with heat and water as bi-products for further use; amounting to greater than 70% efficiency, which otherwise may not be possible by other energy sources.
About Fuel Cells
• In the field of clean energy, Fuel Cell distributed power generation systems are emerging as promising alternative to grid power.
• The Fuel Cells developed are based on High Temperature Proton Exchange Membrane (HTPEM) Technology.
• The development is most suitable for distributed stationary power applications like for small offices, commercial units, data centers etc. where highly reliable power is essential with simultaneous requirement for air-conditioning.
• This system will also meet the requirement of efficient, clean and reliable backup power generator for telecom towers, remote locations and strategic applications as well.
• This development would replace Diesel Generating (DG) sets and help reduce India’s dependence on crude oil.
Significance
• The Fuel Cells fit well in India’s mission of replacing diesel with green and alternate fuels.
• The development of fuel cell technology is indigenous and carries immense national importance in terms of non-grid energy security.

Q) What type of forest found in countries with heavy rainfallduring winter and low rainfall during summer? a)Deciduous b)Evergreen c)Sclerophyllous d)None of above (Geography; Environment )
Ans: (c)
Exp: Sclerophyllous Vegetation: Typically scrub, but also forest, in which the leaves of the trees and shrubs are evergreen, hard, thick, leathery and usually small. These adaptations allow the plants to survive the pronounced hot, dry season of the Mediterranean Type climate in which Sclerophyllous vegetation is best developed.
