NEWSPAPERS HEADLINES
The Supreme Court ruling that politicians can no longer seek votes on the basis of religion, cast, race and language, the Apex court sacking defiant BCCI chief Anurag Thakur and the Union Government declaring that service charge at  eateries is not mandatory are some lead stories across papers today.
With Samajwadi Party Chief Mulayam Singh Yadav staking claim over the party symbol 'Cycle', which will be contested by his son Akhilesh,  The Tribune opines "Competing SP claims may lead to a freeze of symbol", While the Pioneer asks "Who will ride the cycle?".
The Hindu reports that in a blow to Ordinance Raj, a constitution Bench of the Supreme Court has widened the boundaries of judicial review and can now examine whether the President or the State Governor was spurred by an "oblique motive" to by pass the legislature and promulgate an ordinance.
After the State Bank of India cut its lending rate and some private Banks followed suit, the Business standard writes "Credit growth to improve after rate cut, says SBI".
The Times of India writes that in response to the government making service charges in restaurants optional, the National Restaurant Association of India has not only cited judicial precedence to support levying this charge but, has also issued a statement implying that customers are free not to eat at a restaurant if they did not wish to pay the service charge.
In a move that has affected many social media, users, papers write that popular social media application Whats App has stopped working on old iphones and Android hand sets to ensure  that it could continue to introduce new features and stay secure, which requires newer operating systems.
And finally, writing that language is a barrier to science, the Times of India says that over one third of new scientific reports are published in languages other than English which can lead to important science being missed at the international level.
