स्पष्टीकरण:
जनगणना 2027, जो 1 अप्रैल 2026 को शुरू हुई, भारत की 16वीं जनगणना है; इसमें एक ऑनलाइन पोर्टल के माध्यम से ‘स्वयं-गणना’ (self-enumeration) की सुविधा शामिल है, जो इसे देश की पहली पूर्णतः डिजिटल जनगणना बनाती है।

Explanation:
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) is the nodal authority responsible for conducting the Census in India. The exercise is carried out through the Office of the Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India, which functions under the MHA.

The Census is conducted under the provisions of the Census Act, 1948, making it a legally mandated and highly organized nationwide exercise. For Census 2027, the MHA is also overseeing the transition to a fully digital census, including mobile-based data collection and self-enumeration through an online portal.

स्पष्टीकरण:
गृह मंत्रालय (MHA) भारत में जनगणना कराने के लिए ज़िम्मेदार नोडल प्राधिकरण है। यह प्रक्रिया भारत के रजिस्ट्रार जनरल और जनगणना आयुक्त के कार्यालय के माध्यम से पूरी की जाती है, जो MHA के अधीन कार्य करता है।

जनगणना, जनगणना अधिनियम, 1948 के प्रावधानों के तहत आयोजित की जाती है, जिससे यह एक कानूनी रूप से अनिवार्य और अत्यधिक व्यवस्थित राष्ट्रव्यापी प्रक्रिया बन जाती है। जनगणना 2027 के लिए, MHA पूरी तरह से डिजिटल जनगणना की ओर बदलाव की देखरेख भी कर रहा है, जिसमें मोबाइल-आधारित डेटा संग्रह और एक ऑनलाइन पोर्टल के माध्यम से स्वयं-गणना शामिल है।

  • Reference Date: March 1, 2027
    (October 1, 2026 for snow-bound regions like Ladakh, J&K, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand)

Current Affairs MCQs : 27 March 2026

Q. According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Interim Economic Outlook (March 2026), which of the following countries is projected to be the fastest-growing major economy in FY 2025–26, along with its growth rate?
प्रश्न . आर्थिक सहयोग एवं विकास संगठन (OECD) के अंतरिम आर्थिक परिदृश्य (मार्च 2026) के अनुसार, निम्नलिखित में से कौन-सा देश वित्त वर्ष 2025–26 में सबसे तेज़ी से बढ़ने वाली प्रमुख अर्थव्यवस्था होने का अनुमान है, तथा उसकी विकास दर क्या है?

A. China – 5.0% / चीन – 5.0%
B. India – 7.6% / भारत – 7.6%
C. USA – 3.0% / अमेरिका – 3.0%
D. Germany – 2.9% / जर्मनी – 2.9%

Show Answer
✅ Answer: B. India – 7.6%
✅ उत्तर: B. भारत – 7.6%

Explanation:
The OECD report (March 2026) projects India’s GDP growth at 7.6% for FY 2025–26, making it the fastest-growing major economy in the world. China’s growth is lower (around 5.0% and declining further). Global growth rates (around 2.9–3.0%) are significantly below India’s growth. Hence, India stands out as the top performer among major economies.

व्याख्या:
OECD की मार्च 2026 की रिपोर्ट के अनुसार, वित्त वर्ष 2025–26 के लिए भारत की GDP वृद्धि दर 7.6% अनुमानित है, जो इसे विश्व की सबसे तेज़ी से बढ़ने वाली प्रमुख अर्थव्यवस्था बनाती है। चीन की वृद्धि दर इससे कम (लगभग 5.0% और आगे घटती हुई) है। वैश्विक वृद्धि दर (लगभग 2.9–3.0%) भी भारत से काफी कम है। इसलिए भारत प्रमुख अर्थव्यवस्थाओं में सबसे आगे है।

Explanation:
The Women’s Reservation Act, 2023 (106th Constitutional Amendment) provides 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies to improve political representation.
महिला आरक्षण अधिनियम, 2023 (106वां संविधान संशोधन) महिलाओं की राजनीतिक भागीदारी बढ़ाने के लिए लोकसभा और राज्य विधानसभाओं में 33% आरक्षण प्रदान करता है।

However, it does not apply to the Rajya Sabha and State Legislative Councils, and its implementation will take place after delimitation.
हालाँकि, यह राज्यसभा और राज्य विधान परिषदों पर लागू नहीं होता है, और इसका कार्यान्वयन परिसीमन (delimitation) के बाद होगा।

Women’s Reservation Act: Implementation Likely by 2029

The Women’s Reservation Act (106th Constitutional Amendment, 2023) is being fast-tracked for implementation by 2029, aiming to ensure greater representation of women in Indian legislatures. The government is considering using 2011 Census data for delimitation, instead of waiting for the next Census, to avoid delays.

Key Provisions

  • Provides 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies
  • Does not apply to Rajya Sabha and State Legislative Councils
  • Popularly known as Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam

Proposed Changes

  • Lok Sabha strength may increase from 543 to 816 seats
  • Around 273 seats could be reserved for women
  • Target implementation by the 2029 Lok Sabha elections

Reason for Fast-Tracking

Originally, the Act’s implementation was linked to the first Census after 2026, which could delay it until around 2034. To avoid this, the government plans to:

  • Use 2011 Census data
  • Amend provisions related to delimitation
  • Enable earlier rollout of reservation
