Supreme Court on "Freebies" vs. Marginalized Welfare
On February 19, the Supreme Court made critical observations while hearing a petition regarding state subsidies.
 * The Observation: Chief Justice Surya Kant clarified that while the State must provide for the marginalized (education, healthcare), indiscriminate "freebies" for those who can afford them hampers long-term development.

The Ministry of Tribal Affairs released updated data (Feb 2026) showing the status of land titles for Adivasis.
 * Data: 4,10,135 individual titles and 33,112 community titles have been settled. However, many claims remain rejected in states like Odisha, Karnataka, and West Bengal due to "lack of evidence" of occupation before 2005.
