Be Ready, Always!
Chief Editor’s Note

Twenty stories today, one thread: the rule exists on paper, and the real question is who carries its burden in practice.<br><b>Who must prove it:</b> 4,65,520 Form 7 deletions against 252 appeals in UP (GS2), consent judged at inception under BNS Section 69 (GS2) and a ₹30 death certificate that took nine months against a 14-day Right to Service limit (GS4). Proof belongs on the State or the accuser, yet it keeps sliding onto the citizen. Expect burden-of-proof traps in Prelims and probity cases in GS4.<br><b>When the regulator is the risk:</b> a helipad tender inside Bhimbandh without Section
