Secrecy of Ballot
Secrecy of Ballot Supreme Court in a recent judgement said the secrecy of the ballot is the cornerstone of free and fair elections, however, a voter can voluntarily waive the privilege of non-disclosure. The judgment came on an appeal against the Allahabad High Court decision setting aside the voting of a no-confidence motion in a Zila panchayat in Uttar Pradesh in 2018. It is the policy of the law to protect the right of voters to the secrecy of the ballot. Even a remote or distinct possibility that a voter can be forced to disclose for whom she has voted would act as a positive constraint and a check on the freedom to exercise of the franchise. The principle of secrecy of ballots is an important postulate of constitutional democracy. Section 94 of the Representation of the People Act, which upholds the privilege of the voter to maintain confidentiality about her choice of vote. However, the privilege ends when the voter decides to waive the privilege and instead volunteers to disclose as to whom she had voted.

Solar Eclipse
Solar Eclipse An annular solar eclipse will occur on June 21,2020 and the people in India will be able to catch this annual celestial event in action. A solar eclipse occurs when moon passes between earth and sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of sun for a viewer on earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon’s apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun’s, blocking most of the Sun’s light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). 3 types of solar eclipses First, there is a total solar eclipse — which is only visible from a small area on earth. For the phenomenon to occur, the sun, moon and earth must be in a direct line. Second is the partial solar eclipse when the sun, moon and earth are not exactly lined up. Third is annular eclipse. This happens when the moon is farthest from the earth. Since the moon is farther away from the earth, it seems smaller and does not block the entire view of the sun. The moon is in front of the sun and looks like a dark disk on top of an even larger disk which appears like a ring of fire.
