Daily Current Affairs 6 November 2026

The 6 November 2026 edition opens with two deep dives. The first is Sujit Das v. Union of India, in which the Supreme Court held on 5 November 2026 that the Article 22(2) 24-hour clock runs from detention, not formal arrest. The second is the Cabinet’s Viability Gap Funding scheme for grid-scale energy storage, approved on 4 November 2026: Rs 14,500 crore for 92 GWh, made up of 60 GWh pumped, 30 GWh battery and 2 GWh other storage.

The roundup covers the developments of 3 to 6 November: the continuation of Fast Track Special Courts to 31 March 2031, the seven-judge Bench holding the Arjun Flour Mills reference academic after GST, the I-OECM Guidelines 2026, India’s priorities for COP31, the critical-mineral processing scheme, VISTAR, TRAI’s satellite network recommendations, the Pralay flight-test and Cyclone Murasu, with the India-Canada Defence Dialogue, India’s third term as ISA President, CERT-In’s CRAFTY FALCON advisory, NHAI’s barrier-less toll plaza guidelines, revised cancer medicine prices and the UPSC Mains result. Three editorials complete the edition: from The Hindu, the editorial on sewer deaths and the 2013 law against manual scavenging, and Shashi Tharoor on a middle power moment for India in a fragmenting world; and from The Indian Express, the editorial on the Cabinet’s revamp of the Agnipath scheme. A UPSC-pattern quiz closes the day.
