Daily Current Affairs 11 September 2026: 20 Facts for SSC, Railway, Banking, BPSC, BSSC and JSSC
Two numbers are worth memorising from the last 24 hours. Bihar pushed Rs 1,233.87 crore of social security pension into 105.68 lakh accounts on 10 September, and the Centre cleared a Rs 565.50 crore land-records overhaul called DILRMP 3.0. Both will show up in general awareness papers.
Below are 20 numbered facts from the last 24 hours, each with the exam it matters for. Then four quick tables. The 20-question practice set built on these facts now sits as a separate timed quiz on ExamAtlas, so you can read here and attempt there. Nothing on this page is guessed. Where a figure is still moving, you will see a "(verify)" note instead of a confident claim.

Bihar and Jharkhand Special
This is the section BPSC, BSSC, Bihar Police, JSSC, JPSC and BTET/JTET candidates should not skim. State-specific general awareness is where the Bihar and Jharkhand papers are actually won.

Two more for the state file. Bihar signed an MoU in Dubai with the UAE's AIM Global Foundation to build an integrated agro-food processing cluster.

Important Days
Today, 11 September, is National Forest Martyrs Day. It traces back to the Khejarli massacre of 1730, when Amrita Devi Bishnoi and 362 villagers in Rajasthan died protecting khejri trees. The date also marks the anniversary of Swami Vivekananda's 1893 address in Chicago.

Sports Results at a Glance
Rankings and Numbers
The Global Innovation Index 2026 has not landed yet. WIPO has set 29 September 2026 as the release date, so any India rank circulating before that is a forecast, not a fact.
Final Word
One honest caveat before you close this tab. The Bihar pension figure, the Jharkhand policy subsidies and the BPSC 72nd prelims date came through news reports rather than a gazette PDF, so the direction is solid but a decimal could shift. Cross-check the two Bihar items on the state portal before you write them into your notes.
If you are sitting for BPSC TRE 4.0, the only date that matters this week is 30 September. Fill the form now, revise later. Today's 20-question set based on these facts is live as a free timed quiz with topic-wise accuracy tracking, so you can see which of these eight sections you keep losing marks in.
