Salman Khurshid's statement that the Congress is looking at making the Lokpal a constitutional entity is interesting considering that it was first mooted by Rahul Gandhi.

This morning, three big stories have been covered by the national news media. The first of course, is the government statement that they are considering making the Lokpal bill a constitutional entity with more powers than even the election commission has also been mentioned prominently in most of the national newspapers. The interesting fact here of course, is that this proposal, which was outlined yesterday by Law minister Salman Khurshid, was first mooted by Rahul Gandhi in parliament during the Lokpal debates in August.

The other big story is BJP leader L.K. Advani's continuing Rath Yatra that was flagged off by Nitish Kumar in Bihar yesterday. Besides covering the rath itself however, newspapers have also concentrated on the Modi-Advani politics as well as the Nitish Kumar - BJP equation.

The third story concentrates on the interlocutors report on Kashmir that is due to be presented to the government today. The report is widely expected to recommend more autonomy in the troubled valley.
