Punjab jailbreak: Deputy CM suspects Pakistan's involvement to revive terrorism
Newspapers Headlines
The passing away of former Cuban President Fidel Castro, Lt Gen Bajwa's appointment as the new Pak army chief, and the face-off between the government & the judiciary over the appointment of judges are some of the stories that have been widely covered on the front pages of prominent dailies.
"Cuba's 'Maximo Lider' Fidel Castro dies at 90" writes the Times of India while the Hindu says "Cuba loses its El Comandante, India a friend". The Pioneer reports that the historic revolutionary leader defied the power of 10 US Presidents, and survived the eclipse of global communism during his half century rule of Cuba.
In the latest sign that the Supreme Court and the Narendra Modi government continue to be at loggerheads over appointments to the higher judiciary, Chief Justice of India T S Thakur has repeated his complaint about the acute shortage of judges in the high courts. Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has said the government had appointed a record number of judges this year, reports the Indian Express.
The Tribune reports that Lt Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa, who has extensive experience in handling Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, has been appointed Pakistan’s new army chief to succeed Gen Raheel Sharif.
Even before the much-hyped protest against the Modi government’s demonetisation move could take off, cracks have surfaced within the Opposition. The Asian Age reports the Left is going all out to prevent Trinamul supremo Mamata Banerjee from emerging as a key stretegist and the face unifying anti-BJP forces.
Under the headine, "Niti Aayog pushes for tenure rejig of assemblies for joint state, LS polls", Hindustan Times reports that the Niti Aayog’s discussion paper bats for simultaneous elections stating that frequent polls change the focus of policy making because “short-sighted populist” and “politically safe” measures are accorded higher priority.
And finally, Lost kilos keep coming back? Gut bacteria to blame. The Times of India says scientists studying yo-yo dieting in mice say the tendency for people to regain excess weight rapidly after successfully slimming may be due to the trillions of microorganisms in the gut.
