🔆Chalukya School :
✅In the Deccan region, the Western Chalukyas succeeded the Vakatakas. It was a dynasty of great power. The well-known kings of this dynasty were Vikramaditya, Mangalesha, Pulakesi, and Keertivarman.
✅ Their main city was Badarni.
✅ The Vaishnava cave, located in Cave 3, is the most magnificent and regal building.
✅ It is renowned for its towering sculptures of many manifestations of Vishnu, including Varaha, Trivikrama, Narasimha, and Ananta Vishnu.
✅A cave's inscription states that Mangalesha, the cave's patron and a Bhagata Dharma adherent, had the entire cave decorated.
But the magnificent picture is currently just partially visible. Mangalesha is unmistakably depicted as a patron of the painter's work in the incomplete paintings from Badami. A scene from the palace is depicted on a huge panel.

Chair’s Summary: 3rd Voice of Global South Summit summary
✅It is now the 53rd Party (country) to the 1992 UN Water Convention, which is also known as the Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes.
✅The Convention was initially established as a regional framework for the pan-European region. Since its global expansion to all UN Member States in 2016, Chad, Senegal, Ghana, Guinea Bissau, Togo and Cameroon were the first African nations to accede. They were later joined by Nigeria, Namibia and The Gambia in 2023.
📍The Water Convention
✅The Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (Water Convention) was adopted in Helsinki in 1992 and entered into force in 1996.

🔆Rashtrakuta School : Rashtrakuta established their rule in Deccan after overthrowing the Badami Chalukyas.
✅The Kailasa cave at Ellora, crafted in the 8th century, is a remarkable rock-cut structure.
✅ Ellora's mantapas (pillared halls) showcase paintings on walls and ceilings, depicting Shiva Purana themes, as well as floral, animal, and bird designs.
✅One iconic panel in Ellora portrays a dancing Shiva.
✅ The unique trait, which here became stylistic elements of Jain manuscript paintings in the 12th century CE, is the odd placement of the eyes and the angular nose in three-quarter view. This is the last illustration of a mural painted in the Ajanta style.

Bpsc 69th Mains Result
🔆MANIPUR
✅ Declared a separate state in 1972 - Three communities, Meitei, Nagas, and Kuki/Chins.
✅ Imphal valley - 10% of Manipur’s landmass, is dominated by the non--tribal Meitei.
✅ Meitei account for more than 64% of the population of the State - 40 of the State’s 60 MLAs.
✅ The hills comprise 90% of the geographical area.
✅ While a majority of the Meiteis are Hindus followed by Muslims, the 33 recognised tribes, broadly classified into ‘Any Naga tribes’ and ‘Any Kuki tribes’ are largely Christians.
MANIPUR'S 2023 Ethnic Violence :
Underlying issue Behind violence:
✅Orders of the Manipur High Court: It recently directed the State Govt to submit, within four weeks, a 10- year -old recommendation to the Union Tribal Affairs Ministry for the inclusion of the Meitei community in the ST list.
✅ Union Tribal Affairs Ministry’s letter: The court referred to the Ministry’s letter in 2013 to the Manipur government seeking specific recommendation along with the latest socio economic survey and ethnographic report.
✅ Arguments of Meiteis: They were recognised as a tribe before the merger of the State with the Union of India in 1949; The ST status is needed to preserve the community and save the ancestral land, tradition, culture, and language of the Meiteis.
✅ Scheduled Tribe Demand Committee of Manipur: It submitted a representation in 2012 demanding ST status for the Meiteis.
✅ The committee also said the Meiteis needed constitutional safeguards against outsiders, stating that the community has been kept away from the hills.
Why are tribal groups against ST status for Meiteis?
✅ The tribal groups say the Meiteis have a demographic and political advantage besides being more advanced than them academically and in other aspects.
✅ They feel the ST status to the Meiteis would lead to loss of job opportunities and allow them to acquire land in the hills and push the tribals out.
✅ They argue that the language of the Meitei people is included in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution and many of them have reservation benefits.
