Month-wise archive
Monthly Current AffairsHow the daily current affairs page works
This is the page to open every day. It shows today’s current affairs as the stories arrive, along with yesterday’s complete edition. New stories are added several times a day, from late morning to night (IST), and a final sweep early the next morning completes the day. That is why, in the morning, you will first see yesterday’s full edition, while today’s stories fill in through the day.
Each story is dated by the day its official release came out, mostly from the Press Information Bureau (PIB). So the page for any date lists the events of that date, not just whatever was published then. Every date has its own daily edition with headlines, one-liner facts, appointments, awards, schemes and MCQs, in English and Hindi.
A simple routine works best. Read the day’s stories, note the one-liners, and take the daily current affairs quiz, which covers the whole previous day and is published after midnight IST. Missed a few days? The 14-day date list on this page takes you back to any recent edition, and the month-wise archive has the older ones.
