Current Affairs Digest: Defence and Security Updates

A quick digest of high-probability current affairs themes for CAPF and CDS aspirants.

Themes to Track

• Border infrastructure: New tunnels, roads and airstrips along northern borders and the agencies responsible for them.
• Defence indigenisation: Atmanirbhar Bharat in defence — positive indigenisation lists, DRDO developments, defence corridors.
• Internal security: Trends in LWE-affected districts, drone threats, and coastal security frameworks.
• Military exercises: Names, partner countries and locations of joint exercises — a guaranteed question area.
• CAPF organisations: Latest heads, anniversaries, and operational responsibilities of BSF, CRPF, CISF, ITBP, SSB and Assam Rifles.

How to Study Current Affairs

Make one page of notes per week per theme. Revise monthly. Connect every news item to its static background — that is exactly how UPSC frames questions.
