Parliament ↔ Supreme Court: Parliament makes laws; the Supreme Court reviews them. The NJAC case (2015), Aadhaar judgment (2018), and farm laws repeal (2021) show this tension.
Elections → Parliament: The Lok Sabha is the direct product of elections. Electoral reforms (NOTA, EVMs, VVPAT) directly affect who sits in Parliament and what policies pass.
Parliament → Economic Issues: The Union Budget is the most important economic event of the year. Parliament passes appropriation bills, GST laws, and financial sector reforms.
Supreme Court → Social Issues: Public Interest Litigations (PILs) have transformed social policy — Right to Food (2013), Sabarimala (2018), LGBTQ+ rights (Navtej Singh, 2018).
International Relations → Climate: India's climate commitments (Paris Agreement, COP26, net-zero by 2070) are negotiated internationally but implemented domestically. The CBAM and carbon tariffs affect India's exports.
Technology → Economy: Digital India, UPI, and AI policy are economic drivers. The 2023 Digital Personal Data Protection Act affects both governance and the digital economy.
Media Literacy → All Topics: Every current affairs topic requires critical reading. Media literacy is the meta-skill that makes all other topics usable.
