Dementia is decline in memory power.

The abyssal zone or abyssopelagic is a layer of the pelagic zone of the ocean. The region remains darkness as it is present 4000 to 6000 m beneath the ocean. So sunlight can't penetrate to such depth. These rare creatures are found in that zone.

20.02.2018 - THE HINDU I.P. Rating - 4/5
THE EDITORIALS REALLY TOOK THE DAY ANS CCEA'S NEW COAL POLICY SHOULD BE WELL WRITTEN.SOME BITS ARE PROVIDED.

*coal mines (special provisions)act,2015
*mines and minerals (development and regulation) act,1957
As supreme court have already directed government for bringing transparency in allocation of resources(coal) and already have cancelled more than 200 coal mines, this news does seem important as we can clearly know how does this works via the fourth coming 8 core industries index by IIP. Also privatisation of natural resources should be keenly notes as mining is one such activity to be considered in natural security as it os an anthropogenic factor.

This is an example for reduction of gender partiality and in this era of empowerment of women and other weaker sections of the society these news can be used as an example.

***These are some other news bits. Important have been highlighted.

• As we know this year 10 ASEAN members have attended our republic day. One particular issue was always viewed. Yes it is CHINA and which is actually an economic competitor for our ACT EAST POLICY also INDIAN OCEAN dispute between INDIA and South China sea dispute with our ASEAN countries.
• Also TRUMP's H1 visa have already stirred the feel of migrat workers
• These are again reminded by this page.

The loan fraud via PNB have again stirred the talk about NPAs and bad banks. 

The era of AI(artificial intelligence) have already started as a great root of fourth industrial revolution. Which is also one of vision of 2035 of INDIA. Here, the editor talks about the tech gaints and further tech implementations that can be made in india and the industrial world.

"One nation one poll" is in debates while in this editorial the transparency for election campaigns is questioned. Yes, thats the electoral bonds.

Some fun time knowledge is provided.

While government is focussing on clean and green energy, with existing 45%(approx.) of thermal power plants. There are still villages which are high prone to power cuts. While we sell surplus power to vurma and Bangladesh even nepal, here points about the cons present within the nation.
