DNA Edit: Mumbai stampede reveals apathy of the worst kind
NEWSPAPERS HEADLINE
The tragedy at the rail footover bridge connected to the Elphinstone Road station in Mumbai is covered in most newspapers today.
"And just like that, 22 dead in Mumbai" headlines The Tribune. 'Trapped on stairs, crammed in narrow space during stampede on footbridge linking 2 railway stations' adds the paper. The Times of India states "Railways Commute: A Death Sentence" adding 'Railways didn't act despite spate of warnings'. The Pioneer writes "Railway Ministry orders probe".
A top headline in the Hindustan Times reads "Govt extends deadline to sell Pre-GST Goods to Dec 31st". The Times of India speculates that the government is looking to allow quarterly filing of GST returns, instead of monthly, for most businesses, to ease their compliance burden.
The war of words between Former Finance Minister Yashwant Sinha and the government over its handling of the Indian economy is highlighted by the DNA. The Asian Age, too, in its lead story quotes the minister as saying "If I wanted a job, I would be Finance Minister".
The Statesman, on its front page, reports "India rejects Pakistan claim on Jadhav swap". The Times of India writes "Jadhav-terrorist swap offer Pak's 'imaginary lie' says the MEA".
The DNA carries a story on its front page, headlined as "Pakistan asks for ban on party backed by Hafiz Saeed".
The Pioneer carries a photograph of a Durga idol in north Kolkata decked in 30 kg of gold worth over 10 crore rupees. "Bedecked in gold sari Maa Durga draws huge crowds" headlines the daily.
In other interesting reads across newspapers: Amul to sell french fries, aloo tikki soon; Small savings interest rates unchanged for Oct-Dec and free bus rides for senior citizens of Delhi on Oct 1st on the International Day of Older Persons.
And finally, most newsapers have reported about the new ambitious vision of futurist entreprenuer Elon Musk to travel anywhere on earth in under an hour.
