River Rejuvenation is the result of a sudden fall in sea level or a sudden uplift in land surface due to tectonic movements.

This disturbance enables a rise in river’s potential energy (energy stored in river due to newly created height difference from base level).

This energy results in increased river bed erosion. Vertical erosion or downcutting is associated with river rejuvenation as seen in Chambal Ravines.

Circular Economy A circular economy is an economic system of closed loops in which raw materials, components and products lose their value as little as possible, renewable energy sources are used and systems thinking is at the core. In this article we will explain this definition in more detail. @UPSCPRELIMSZONE Often focus on the use of raw materials or on system change. Definitions that focus on resource use often follow the 3-R approach:

Reduce (minimum use of raw materials)
Reuse (maximum reuse of products and components)
Recycle (high quality reuse of raw materials)

🔴 What is a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) ?

👉CBDC is a legal tender issued by a central bank in a digital form.

👉 It is similar to a fiat currency issued in paper and is interchangeable with any other fiat currency

🔴 What is the need for CBDC?

👉 the goal is to provide users with convenience and security of digital as well as the regulated, reserve-backed circulation of the traditional banking system.

🔴 What does this change for citizens?

👉 There are several models proposed by technology experts and evangelists on how the Digital Rupee could be transacted but a formal announcement by the Reserve Bank of India will likely detail how the Digital Rupee will be transacted by citizens.

♦️One chief difference will be that a Digital Rupee transaction will be instantaneous as opposed to the current digital payment experience.
