Newspapers Headlines
Most newspapers today have keenly tracked the pollution levels in Delhi-NCR a day after Diwali, post the ban imposed on the sale of firecrackers by the Supreme Court. "City cheats ban but pollution a bit less" headlines the Mail Today. "Delhi did its best but it wasn't enough, air still turned toxic" reads The Times of India's top headline.
The Hindu has front paged another story which says "Most pollution-linked deaths occur in India". Quoting an international commission's report, the paper says that out of 9 million premature deaths linked to pollution worldwide, a staggering 2.5 million deaths were reported from India in 2015.
Several newspapers have also front paged photographs of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Kedarnath in Uttarakhand. "At Kedarpuri, PM lays foundation for five key projects" writes the DNA. The Times of India quotes the PM as saying "UPA didn't let me rebuild Kedarnath as Gujarat CM".
Reporting on the politically sensitive Bofors scam, the DNA, quoting Fairfax CEO Michael Hershman in its lead headline, writes- "What did Rajiv Gandhi have to hide (in Bofors case) ?"; 'should have ordered an inquiry'.
In a horrifying story of mob hysteria in Jammu & Kashmir, The Statesman reports "Mob tries to set youth on fire in Kashmir over 'braid-chopping". In another such instance reported from Delhi, The Asian Age says "Man objects to open urination, beaten to death".
The resignation of solicitor general Ranjit Kumar is keenly noticed in the newspapers today. The Asian Age writes "2nd top law officer quits, says reason is personal".
And finally, The Indian Express reports - come 2018 and India will get its indigenous nature channel "DD Prakriti" on the lines of Discovery and National Geographic channels, in order to promote nature conservation films by Indian filmmakers.
