Online news sources

Politics section: This is a separate section for Indian politics keeping in mind that India is the largest democracy of the world.
Cricket Section: Staying true to its hyperlocal tag it should consist of special attention to the cricket news and updates which is the most popular sport in the country. The user can see the live scores of the matches in progress with detailed analysis and commentary. Rest of the sports can be covered as per the scheduling of their events.

Entertainment Section: As it is with other sections this segment should also provide the Indian entertainment videos on different occasions.
