Front Running:
Front running is an unethical trading practice where a broker or trader uses advance knowledge of pending large orders of clients to trade ahead of them for personal profit. They execute personal trades before processing clients’ orders, taking advantage of expected price.
Front-running is commonly confused with insider trading, but they are distinct. Insider trading refers to a company insider who trades on advanced knowledge of corporate activities—for example, using their insider knowledge to buy or sell shares ahead of a major announcement.

Kerala’s martial art form Kalaripayattu has become a bone of contention ahead of the 38th edition of the National Games which is scheduled to commence from January 28 in Uttarakhand.
The Indian Kalaripayattu Federation has accused the Indian Olympics Association (IOA) of “relegating” the martial art to the demonstration section of the event.
In the 37th edition of the National Games, which was held in Goa in 2023, Kalaripayattu was part of the competition section. This year, the art form has been included in the list of events for demonstration, dampening the medal hopes of around 200 Kalaripayattu athletes from 18 states who were planning to participate in the competition.
The Delhi HC had on January 15 ordered that “a suitable decision shall be taken for reinstating Kalaripayattu as a competitive sport in the 38th National Games”. The court’s order was based on a writ petition filed by a Kalaripayattu student Harshita Yadav.
