Researchers have considered the European genetic risk calculation effective in diagnosing which of the following types of diabetes -
Type 1
Type 2
Both of the above
None of these
KEM Hospital and Research Center, Pune; Researchers at CSIR- Center for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) Hyderabad and University of Exeter, UK have found that Genetic risk calculation is effective in the diagnosis of type-1 diabetes in Indians.
Developed by the University of Exeter, genetic risk calculations take into account detailed genetic information that is thought to be responsible for increasing the likelihood of type-1 diabetes. This calculation can be used to determine type-1 diabetes in a person during a diabetes test.
The research team conducted a study on people with diabetes in Pune using genetic risk calculation.
The team analyzed 262 people with type-1 diabetes, 352 people with type-2 diabetes, and 334 people without diabetes.
All were of Indian (Indo-European) descent.

Which one of the following countries has been the first in global e-waste production in 2019 -
China
India
USA
Russia
According to a study by the United Nations University (UNU), it is estimated that by 2030 global e-waste will increase by 38 percent. There is an increase of about 21 percent in the last five years.
Only 3 countries account for 38% of the total recorded worldwide last year and India is one of them.
According to the Global Invest Monitor 2020 report, in 2019, 53.6 million tonnes (MT) of e-waste was generated globally and only 17.4% of it was recycled.
China ranks first with 1.01 million tonnes of waste.
The US is at the second place with 5.9 million tonnes of waste and India at the third place with 3.2 million tonnes of waste.
Due to the middle and low income groups in countries like India, the waste management infrastructure is either not there or it is much less developed.
There are 312 authorized recyclers for such waste in India and they have the capacity to treat about 800 kilotons of e-waste annually.
The UNU report states that about 90 percent of India's e-waste is recycled in the informal sector.

App innovation challenge
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced to bring the self-reliant India App Innovation Challenge.
Ministry of Electronic and Information Technology has launched self-reliant India App Innovation Challenge in association with Atal Innovation Mission, which will run in two directions:
Promotion of existing apps and development of new apps.
In order to bring inclusiveness to the challenge, it will be organized jointly by the government and the tech community.
With this, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu has also launched Elyments social media app.
It is believed that it is the first indigenous social media app in the country that provides feed audio video calling in more than 8 Indian languages.
