THE JURY IS still out on whether climate change has reached a point of no re- turn. But the India Meteorological Department's (IMD) announcement that in 2024, the world's most populous country experienced its hottest year since 1901 should be sobering for policymakers across the world. Globally, too, there is enough evidence that the year gone by was the hottest on record - though the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) has not yet issued an official declaration. The IMD and WMO have warned that 2025 could be another hot year. By all accounts, India is on track to meet its global climate goals.

THE RIGHT to property is a human right and a constitutional right and no person can be deprived of his or her property without being paid adequate compensation, the Supreme Court ruled while also holding that in exceptional circumstances of inordinate delay in disbursement of compensation, the date of fixing the valuation can be shifted to a more recent one. owners who said they had not been given compensation, the Special Land Acquisition Officer (SLAO), Bengaluru, by order dated April 22, 2019, decided to postpone the date of Preliminary Notification for acquisition from January 29, 2003 to 2011 and accordingly ordered the rates for that year. An amount of 32,69,45,789 was awarded for 11 acre 1.25 guntas of land. The project proponents challenged this before the HC and a single-judge bench quashed the award and directed that fresh awards be passed in accordance with the law.

HIGH INTEREST rates on credit card loans cannot be challenged as an "unfair trade practice", the Supreme Court has ruled. The court last month set aside a July 2008 order by the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC), which had capped the interest rate at 30% per annum. The court also ruled that the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is the only authority that can impose limits on interest rates. The petitioners in "Awaz" Punita Society & Ors v. Reserve Bank of India & Ors (2008), argued that banks were levying "usurious" rates of interest in the range of 36- 49% per annum for delays or defaults on credit card payments.

AIR INDIA rollout of Wi-Fi Internet connectivity services on board domestic and international flights serviced by select aircraft in its fleet. This makes the airline the first in India to offer Internet connectivity on domestic flights. For now, Wi-Fi will be available on the airline's Airbus A350, Boeing 787-9, and select Airbus A321neo aircraft. Apart from the new A350 aircraft, which Air India started operating in 2024, the other aircraft are understood to be those of erst- while Vistara, which merged with Air India in November. In-flight connectivity systems primarily use two kinds of technologies-ground-based cellular towers, also known as air-to-ground (ATG) technology, and satellite-based connectivity. Both require special antennae and other equipment to be installed on the aircraft.
