NEWSPAPERS HEADLINES:
The situation arising out of demonetisation of Rs. 500 and 1000 currency notes continues to figure on the front pages of newspapers. "Money men fighting chaos over cash crunch. As long queues threaten to mar PM's attack on black money, financial staff firefight 24x7" writes Mail Today. "Modi warns more steps may come after December, 'ready to check records up to Independence', reads a headline in the Indian Express while the Financial Express writes, "FM calls for patience, says will take 2-3 weeks to recalibrate ATMs". "Opposition calls demonetisation 'Jumla', 'big black scandal', says Sunday Pioneer.
‘Digital’ village that turned cashless is an oasis of calm" - Hindustan Times reports that while tremors of the Centre’s demonetisation move resulting in acute scarcity of cash are being felt across the country, Akodara in Gujarat, India’s first ‘digital village’, is an oasis of calm where all families fall back on e-banking for everything - from buying milk to biscuits - through their mobile phones.
The Times of India writes that four boys, aged between 17 and 19, from two villages barely 16kilometres from the Line of Control in J&K's Poonch district have made history by making it to IIT.
Asian Age reports that in the National lok adalat held across the country yesterday, over 18.7 lakh cases were settled and the total value of settlement amount reached around 640 crore rupees.
And finally, a breakthrough HIV can now be tested with a pen drive. The Hindu reports that scientists at Imperial College, London, have created a device that uses a drop of blood to detect HIV, and then creates an electrical signal that can be read by a computer.
