News and Now



WHAT IS NEWS?

News is information about current events. This may be provided through many different media: word of mouth, printing, postal systems, broadcasting, electronic communication, or through the testimony of observers and witnesses to events.

4. Who is the disaster management officer in Uttarakhand?
5. What are the damages caused by floods in India?
