Highlights of India Today issue dated August, 26th 2013. This weeks cover story is on the India Today Cvoter Mood of the Nation survey. The survey suggests that even though the UPA is sinking, the NDA has been unable to exploit this advantage as regional parties stake a powerful claim to the Centre. The Special Report, The Kishtwar Cauldron, shows the Jammu and Kashmir government in bad light on the violence.

The issue also has a profile sketch of PV Sindhu. From 3 a.m. mornings to a childhood without chocolates and cinema, the back story to a badminton star. The section Trends is on Crowdsourcing. From finance to fashion and films, brands turn to crowdsourcing to cut costs and democratise innovation. The Big Story section talks about Robert Vadra. The Story title, In-law or Outlaw The land deals of Congress chiefs son-in-law have become a political embarrassment. The edition has three free magazines, Home, Simply Gujarati and Simply Mumbai, with it.
