The Economic Times’ October 20 assembly headlines include a Delhi voter-list audit finding over 100 voters wrongly marked absent or dead, three suspects detained in the Tiger Shroff firing case, and the Bombay High Court ruling peaceful protest a fundamental right. International news covers French President Macron rejecting a minister’s resignation after riots, and a Greek coast guard report of 12 migrant deaths.

ABP Live’s October 21 headlines feature a Delhi court extending custody of CJP’s Saurav Das in the Jantar Mantar case, a Kolkata stampede autopsy revealing fractured ribs pierced lungs of six victims, and PM Modi likely attending Dussehra celebrations. Business updates note the stock market closed for Dussehra after a 876-point Sensex fall on Monday, and the 8th Pay Commission meetings on October 22 to 23.
The two outlets cover different days, but both present neutral, wire-style summaries without slant. The Economic Times focuses on a broad range of national, international, sports and business events, while ABP Live adds more political items like the Jantar Mantar custody extension and the Kolkata stampede details. Neither outlet adopts a pro-government or critical stance, staying factual. The main difference is the date of coverage, not framing. Both serve as straightforward news digests for students.
