I am a beginner at android app development. Want to know how to take data from the net and display on the app. For example : How to make an app which displays News ? Where is the news stored ? How is it updated/ How are new news added ? How is the app synced ?

If you could give me source from where to learn such things, it would be really great.

I assume you have know idea about java socket programming. You should start from sockets. Try to write small client-server application. Or simply watch this video.

Better practice is use AsyncTasks to download files on background thread and update UI with onPostExecute methods called by android:

Here is a good example of how you can do this: Make an HTTP request with android
