In India, a lot of news about the government and leaders came out at the same time.

The government told the top court that it does not want to use family income to decide who can get special help meant for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes.

They said this help is for people who faced unfair treatment because of their caste for a very long time.

A pilot in the Indian Air Force was arrested because he is suspected of secretly giving important defence information to people from another country.

Some judges are being moved to become the top judges of new courts.

The leader of a party called the Akali Dal asked the government to quickly pass a law that gives more women seats in Parliament.

Some people think his party may team up with another party for elections in 2027.

In the state of Karnataka, some politicians were unhappy because they did not get the jobs they wanted in the government.

To fix this, a senior leader from the big party was sent to talk to them.

Meanwhile, 18 people will go for interviews to become the boss of the Ram Temple Trust.
