Opposition Renews Attack Over EVMs, Wants 50% Paper Trail Verification

AN OVERVIEW OF TODAY'S NEWSPAPERS HEADLINES:-

Most papers predominantly cover Anil Ambani's firm getting tax relief post Rafale deal; along with other stories related to the campaigning frenzy by political parties ahead of the second phase of Lok Sabha elections.

The Sunday Statesman headlines, ''France tax relief for Anil firm after R-deal,'' while The Sunday Pioneer writes, ''Le Monde stokes Rafale blaze'' adding, ''French paper alleges 143.7 million Euro tax waiver to Ambani's firm post jet deal; Congress calls it Modi Kripa; Reliance denies link.''

With the election fever gripping the nation and political parties launching a blitzkrieg of rallies as part of their campaign across the country, dailies have covered different stories related to it. The Asian Age reports, ''Prime Minister slams 'Nyay', seeks justice for Congress' 'Anyay' while Hindustan Times says, ''Modi, Rahul trade barbs on Nyay scheme promise,''.

On the centenary of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre yesterday, dailies have noticed its commemoration. The Hindu in its headline quotes the British High Commissioner who expressed regret while paying homage to the martyrs. ''Jallianwala Bagh a shameful act'' writes the paper.

In some other stories The Sunday Times reports:

''Food inflation falls to lowest level since 1991.''

The Hindu reports some exclusive stories, '' Eco toilet on Mount Everest,''  ''Dutch doctor 'fathered' 49 children in IVF scandal'' and ''Facebook spends 22.6 million dollars to keep Marck Zuckerberg safe.''

If you want your child to crack the prestigious UPSC Civil Services Exam then think about cutting off social media platforms from her life. The Indian Express reports, ''UPSC toppers' common link: no social media, many engineers,'' adding that all the toppers of the exam had either deactivated their social media accounts or reduced their usage to only five minutes per day.
