Answer:
1. Pulwama attack, Balakot and Wing Commander Abhinandan.
People in both India and Pakistan were looking forward to the restoration of relations between Indian and Pakistan, but as fate would have it the two neighbours seemed on the verge of war. It all began with a suicide attack from a youth in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. India retaliated strongly by entering Pakistan's air space and reportedly destroying the terror camps in Balakot region. Pakistan was taken aback by India’s reaction, In the meantime, a piece of bad news emerged from Pakistani sources. Wing commander Abhinandam Varthman was captured.
2. India's General Elections 2019
The 2019 elections saw the Right-wing Bhartiya Janta Party's record-breaking return to power, after a resounding win by Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance securing the majority seats with ease for the second time. As expected, there was much politics and futile debates around a lot of issues during the elections. However, Indiatimes ran a special microsite, ‘It Matters’ to cover all the important issues that people often forget amidst the high decibel debates over some other 'not so important' stories. During the run-up to the elections, Indiatimes focused on the stories related to the environment, women's security, education and other such topics that seemed to be missing as top priority items of quite a few political parties.
