*****************************************************
The Census exercise in Manipur, scheduled to commence from September 1, has been deferred until further orders following a special hearing of the Manipur High Court on Monday.

The High Court also withheld the house-listing exercise, which had been scheduled to begin on August 17. The exercise will remain on hold until further notification from the Registrar General of India.Studying World History

A special bench comprising Chief Justice M. Sundar and Justice A. Guneswar Sharma heard petitions seeking directions for updation of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) before the Census and measures to address the issue of alleged illegal migration.

Speaking to reporters after the hearing, Shanta Nahakpam, convenor of 14 Valley-based civil society organisations, said the matters before the court comprised two Public Interest Litigations (PILs) and one writ petition.

According to Nahakpam, the PILs were filed by the Kangleipak Students’ Association (KSA) and the Indigenous People’s Society of Kangleipak (IPSA), while the writ petition was filed by him.

He said the petitions sought identification of Indian citizens through NRC updation before the conduct of the Census and any delimitation exercise. The petitioners have sought updation of the NRC using 1951 as the base year, along with measures to address alleged illegal migration, particularly from neighbouring Myanmar.

Shanta Nahakpam said the demand had triggered prolonged agitations across Manipur over the past two to three months, including several shutdowns, during which protesters were also injured.

The detailed order of the High Court is expected to be made available shortly, after which the specific directions issued by the court will become clear.
The next hearing has been scheduled for October 12, 2026.

Quote Of The Day By :
Why makes every choice feel like a battle,
and how restores peace, drive, and confidence:
*****************************************************
Fear can be a powerful motivator in life, and it can be so in a quiet way. Someone might take a job because they are afraid. Someone might remain silent because they are afraid. Someone might put up with abuse because they are afraid. Someone might put off a dream because failure seems too heavy.

Today has a strong lesson for that state of mind. ’s wisdom shows that fear becomes stronger when the mind is caught up in the result, loss, image or comfort. When a man is full of fear, even the smallest decision can seem like a war.

This instruction is a good help to those who keep asking What if it goes wrong? before every action.

Why Fear Controls Decisions ?

Fear seems so useful. Be careful, don’t take a risk, or People can laugh. Sometimes you have to be careful. But fear becomes harmful when it blocks sincere action.

A student may be excused from an examination due to uncertainty. The worker cannot be required to be treated equally. A business owner might delay an idea. A person in love may conceal his or her real feelings. In every case, fear does not protect growth. It only protects the comfort zone.

Krishna’s teachings call upon the mind to see things clearly. Is the danger real or only a suffering of the mind?
*****************************************************
Krishna’s Lesson- A Thought Inspired By , can be interpreted as for Today:
