NEWSPAPER HEADLINES
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address at the concluding session of G-20 summit in China dominates front pag headlines. The Times of India reports "At G-20, PM all but names Pak South Asia''s sole terror exporter". The Statesman takes note of Prime Minister Modi's separate meeting with French President Francois Hollande at the summit as it writes "Modi raises Scorpene data leak with Hollande".
All the papers highlight the aftermath of the two day visit of the all party delegation to Kashmir. "Panel back, unable to piece together peace" reports the Tribune. On the refusal of the Hurriyat leaders to talk to some members of the delegation who met them in their personal capacity, the Pioneer quotes Home Minister Rajnath Singh as saying "Scuttling talks not Kashmiriyat, insaniyat, jamhooriyat".
The Supreme Court's observations on the use of the sedition law is prominently noticed in all the papers. The Indian Express reports "Strong criticism of government isn't defamatory or seditious, says SC, underlines 1962 verdict". The Times of India draws attention to an interesting legal question that the Supreme Court has agreed to examine. The papers write "Can companies sue citizens for criminal defamation ; Apex court to examine Greenpeace activist's plea against Essar".
In a special front page story, the Hindustan Times reports "Babies to be screened across nation to battle birth defects". The paper adds that this initiative is important as many of these ailments can be addressed.
On the efforts being made by the Special Investigation Team to curb black money, the Pioneer reports "SIT asks RBI to share data with agencies to check black money".
Most papers carry pictures of President Pranab Mukherjee conducting a class in a government school on the occasion of Teachers Day yesterday. Highlighting his comments in the class, the Indian Express reports "Pranab backs simultaneous Lok Sabha , Assembly polls".
And finally a very novel tourism initiative. The Hindustan Times says that you can spend a day in a 220 year old jail in the Medak district of Telangana for 500 rupees. Any takers for that?
