Arrest, action
ll the five main accused, including two policemen,
have been arrested in connection with the gangrape
and murder of two Dalit sisters in Badaun, police said
on Saturday.
Constable Chhatrapal Yadav was arrested late last
night and Urvesh Yadav was detained in the early hours
on Saturday, Superintendent of Police A. K. Saxena
told PTI.
All the five accused named in the FIR, including constables Sarvesh Yadav, Chhatrapal Yadav and three
brothers Pappu Yadav, Awadhesh Yadav and Urvesh
Yadav have been arrested.
The FIR was registered against seven persons
including two unnamed men after outrage over
the incident.
Meanwhile in Bangalore, Kings XI Punjab would eye a
maiden triumph against the ever-resilient Kolkata Knight
Riders in the title clash of the seventh Indian Premier
League here tomorrow.
After a few controversy-marred seasons, the IPL
organisers can finally heave a sigh of relief with the
ongoing edition passing off rather smoothly.
Having cracked a 58-ball 122 that paved the way for
KXIP’s entry into their first IPL final, veteran opener
Virender Sehwag along with Glenn Maxwell and David
Miller will be the biggest threat for KKR, who will bank
on their strong bowling unit, led by Sunil Narine.

NT Bureau
Chennai, May 31:
There will be no power cuts in Tamilnadu from 1 June, as announced by
Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa a few
days ago.
According to sources, officials are
geared up to ensure uninterrupted
power supply and all arrangements
have been made.
The decision to do away with load
shedding for domestic and industrial
customers from 1 June was made
after the power situation in the State
started to look up thanks to various
steps taken by Jayalalithaa in the past
three years.
New power projects have started
generating electricity, providing the
State with sufficient energy. Also,
the Chief Minister has asked officials
to make maximum utilisation of wind
power.
Following this, Jayalalithaa reviewed the power supply position with
senior Ministers and officials at the
Secretariat earlier this week.
Later, she came out with a detailed
statement, announcing the removal of
restrictions on power supply.
She also said that 20 per cent
IPL final: Kings might
vs Knights’ resilience
C SHYAM SUNDAR
Chennai, May 31:
Two knocks of blinding brilliance
spiced up a run-fest that was Qualifier 2 to decide Kolkata Knight Riders’ rival in tomorrow’s IPL 7 final.
Suresh Raina’s heroics went in vain
as Chennai Super Kings’ brave
effort fell short, thereby allowing
Kings XI Punjab their maiden entry
into the summit clash.
All that won’t matter when the
2012 champs KKR takes on a supremely confident Kings XI Punjab
at the Chinnasamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday with the glittering
trophy and Rs 15 crore awaiting
the winner.
The George Bailey-led Kings XI
have been on a hot streak, ever
since the seventh edition of IPL
kicked off in the UAE on 16 April.
They won 11 of their 14 league
games and ran their opponents
ragged. The highly regarded Glenn
Maxwell enhanced his reputation
with numerous power-packed
knocks, two of which floored CSK.
It wouldn’t be an understatement
to say that Bailey’s men have
played kings right through save for
a blip or two and the loss (to KKR)
in Qualifier 1. They have (along
with CSK) looked the best outfit and
have had all the bases covered.
Even as Maxwell purple patch
seems to have dried up, the other
batsmen including the mercurial
Virender Sehwag, David Miller and
Manan Vohra have stepped up.
The bowling department unearthed
new stars in Sandeep Sharma and
Akshar Patel. A fine all-round side
coached by the low-profile Sanjay
Bangar, has been firing on all cylinders and will be eager to match wits
against a formidable KKR line-up.
It may be noted that KKR were
struggling to get their act together
even as Kings XI were laying down
Gautam Gambhir
George Bailey
the marker. The travails of skipper
Gautam Gambhir probably mirrored
those of his side as the Shahrukh
Khan-owned franchise tumbled to
one defeat after the other. However,
once they hit their straps, KKR have
been tough to stop, so to speak.
In West Indian spinner Sunil Narine,
they possess a bowler, who not only
chokes run flow but prises out wickets
at regular intervals. He will be the man
Kings XI batsmen will be wary of, but
the Kolkata side’s bowling isn’t about
Narine alone. The strapping Morne
Morkel can be a handful while the
canny Shakib Al-Hassan has been
making key contributions with bat
and ball and Umesh Yadav rose to
the occasion in the Qualifier against
Kings XI.
The two teams will come to a head
again four days after the clash
which saw KKR snatch a win on a
damp day in Kolkata. The venue is
different and sort of evens things
out. The smallish Chinnasamy
stadium may favour the big-hitters
in the Kings XI team and all eyes
would be on Sehwag, who found
form when it mattered with a stunning assault on the CSK bowlers
last night and Maxwell.
It should be said Sehwag came
to the party when the focus was on
Maxwell and David Miller and the
KXIP think-tank would be glad that
it happened ahead of the final.
After years of underachievement
(Kings XI have struggled after
reaching the semifinal of the inaugural IPL), the team benefitted by
making good picks at the auction
and the results have been there
for all to see. Bangar has forged a
winning unit with the focus being
on team ethic and not so much on
star value. Maxwell, who was not
retained by Mumbai Indians has
showed his worth as a limitedovers player. The bucaneering
spirit in Maxwell has seen him
play some breathtaking knocks
in this year’s tournament and he
would be keen to make an impact
in the final.
The title clash looms as a battle between two evenly matched sides and
Kings XI would fancy their chances
primarily because they have been the
most consistent.
Gambhir, who led KKR to success in 2012 will be eyeing an
encore and would rely on Robin
Uthappa, Yusuf Pathan and himself
to achieve that end.
The Bangalore pitch has favoured
the stroke-makers and big scores
are routine and indications are
that a run-feast is in store on the
morrow.

power cut on high-tension industrial
units and commercial establishments
would be lifted with effect from 1 June.
She said peak hour restrictions (90
per cent restrictions on supply during
6 pm - 10 pm) on both categories of
electricity consumers would also be
removed.
By taking these steps, all restriction
and control (R&C) measures, which
were originally imposed by the previous Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam
regime since November 2008, would
be totally withdrawn, the Chief Minister said.
Pointing out that the decisions had
been taken considering the availability of wind power from next month,
she said while 500 MW of power was
being purchased on medium term
basis, agreements were signed for
buying 3,300 MW on long term basis,
which would be available to the State
gradually, starting from August. In addition, the capacity addition of 2,500
MW was made in the last three years.
The decision to do
away with load
shedding for domestic
and industrial
customers from
1 June was made
after the power
situation in the State
started to look up
thanks to various
steps taken by
Jayalalithaa in the
past three years
These steps and the Chief Minister’s
announcement have brought cheer
among people, who are eagerly looking forward for uninterrupted power
supply from tomorrow.
Vasan finds reason
behind Cong’s defeat
NT Bureau
Chennai, May 31:
Instead of blaming individuals, we
should take collective responsibility
for the drubbing in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections, former
Union Minister and senior Congress
leader G K Vasan said today.
Speaking to mediapersons at the
party’s State headquarters Sathyamurthy Bhavan here today, Vasan,
said, ‘There was an unprecedented
trend all over the nation for a change
of guard at the Centre. Young voters wanted a new government. The
result is the massive defeat for the
Congress. But this is not the end’.
Reeling out the decrease in vote
share for the national party all across
the nation, Vasan said, ‘Congress
not just fared poorly in Tamilnadu bit
also in several others States. Never
Smriti’s plea to
reinstate suspended
officials
New Delhi, May 31:
Union Minister Smriti Irani has
requested the Delhi University (DU)
to reinstate five officials who were
suspended for leaking her documents
amid a controversy over her educational qualifications. (Delhi University
Suspends Five Officials for Leaking
Smriti Irani’s Documents)
Since DU is an autonomous institution I have put forth my personal
appeal to the VC to reinstate the
officials (sic), she posted on Twitter today.
‘In public life one should be open
to scrutiny and criticism. So am I,’
she added.
Confirming the suspension yesterday, a senior DU official had said,
‘Five of the non-teaching staff of the
school of open learning have been
suspended for accessing the confidential file and then leaking it.’
in the history we got a total of just 44
seats. It is time for introspection. We
will analyse the reasons and come
back stronger’.
On the factionalism in Tamilnadu,
Vasan, said, ‘It is my opinion that no
individual should issue statements
in public. The Central leadership is
there. They can make their represen-
tations. It is time for all to stand united
and achieve success’.
‘For the past several years, Congress
party had fought the elections in the
company of Dravidian parties. Just a
month before the Lok Sabha elections,
we chose to go it alone here. That
may had an impact in we getting less
number of votes’, Vasan added.
Coming down on Prime Minister
Narendra Modi, the former Union
Minister questioned as to why there
was a hurry in appointing a retired
government official as principal
secretary by changing the rules and
regulations in a hurry.
Also he observed that any attempt
by the government at the Centre to
repeal Article 370, which guarantees
special status to Jammu and Kashmir, would backfire and instil fear in
the minds of those living there.
Modi meets BJP
general secretaries
New Delhi, May 31:
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today told Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) general secretaries that the primary focus of the government and party should be
on fulfilling the promises made to people during the elections.
He was interacting with them at his 7 Race Course Road (RCR) residence
here today.
The party and the
Sangh (RSS) will help the
government in fulfilling
the promises made to the
people during the elections. We need to emerge
victorious in the next Lok
Sabha elections as well, and
for that, we need to be
prepared, said Modi.
‘The party workers have
put in a lot of effort for the
BJP, and therefore, they
need to be given the kind
of respect they deserve.
We also need to implement
and use our experiences
in the elections’, he added.
He also emphasised on the power and role of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak
Sangh (RSS) behind the victory of the BJP.
‘The Sangathan is our biggest power. Without it, such a huge victory would
not have been possible,’ Modi said.
The meeting is believed to be an attempt to ensure that the organisational
strength of the BJP remains strong.

Cancer-causing worm
heals wounds
S
pit produced by a cancer-causing
worm which damages the human
liver can be used
to treat non-healing
wounds, a scientist
has claimed. It’s
not a high-tech
performance, but it’s
a good story, said
Queensland-based parasitologist Michael
Smout from James Cook university.
He explained his latest study at a science
competition by using a large teddy bear, an
oversized worm and a velvet liver on how
liver parasites cause cancer, and how they
might also assist in the development of
treatments for non-healing wounds.
Throughout Southeast Asia there’s a
very high rate of a particular form of liver
cancer. It’s caused by chronic infection with
a parasitic worm, or liver fluke, which is
found in one of the staple foods - uncooked
fish, he said.
One-sixth of infected people develop
liver cancer, and in Thailand alone 20,000
people die of this cancer each year. My
research focuses on ‘worm
spit’, molecules secreted by
the parasites that cause cells
to multiply faster than they
normally would, Smout said
adding, That’s a key factor in
the initiation of many cancers,
and I’ve been able to isolate a molecule,
granulin, that causes excessive cell growth.
By making worm granulin in the laboratory,
Smout has found that it is not just a potent
human cell growth stimulator - it also
promotes wound
healing.
We don’t know
yet how this works,
but we suspect that
as the worm feeds
on the liver it also
heals the wounds
it creates. In the short term this would
be beneficial to the human host, but the
repeated wounding and healing over
decades could lead to this form of cancer,
which has a dismal prognosis.
Smout is a member of the Queensland
Tropical Health Alliance, based at James
Cook university in Cairns. Our work on this
project is two-fold. Firstly we aim to develop
treatments or
a vaccine to
prevent liver
fluke infection,
which in turn
will dramatically
reduce the
incidence of liver cancer in Thailand and
surrounding countries, he said.
Secondly we believe that an in-depth
understanding of liver fluke biology,
particularly focusing on how it heals
the wounds it creates, could lead to
new treatments for non-healing wounds
which are an increasing problem with
smokers, diabetics and an ageing
population, Smout said.
three-year-old boy in the US has shot
and killed his 18-month-old brother
with a handgun, adding to the spate of
such tragic incidents in the country in the
past two months. The boy died after he was
shot in the head by his older brother at a
neighbour’s apartment in Payson, Arizona,
police said.
The semi-automatic gun that belonged to
the man they were visiting was not locked
up in a safe, they said. After the police
dispatchers got several calls on Tuesday
afternoon, alerting them to a child with a
head injury, the officers rushed to find the
mother carrying the wounded child to the
parking lot of the apartment building.
The boy was taken to Payson Regional
Medical Center, where he was pronounced
dead, Payson police chief Don Engler said.
The apartment that this occurred in was a
family friend of the mother and two children,
Engler was quoted as saying by KPHO-TV.
The family had been there visiting for
about 10 to
15 minutes.
Engler said
the children
f o u n d
the semiautomatic
handgun in
the apartment
and took it to another room. He said neither
adult knew the boys had the weapon.
The children had slipped into another
room unobserved by the mother and the
78-year-old occupant of the apartment,
Engler said. The victim’s 3-year-old
brother pulled the trigger, he said.
This is the latest incident involving
children who accidentally shoot someone
or die of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. A
Florida man was arrested after his 6-yearold nephew shot and killed the man’s
father during a family barbeque Sunday.
Juan Manuel Martinez Jr, 28, was charged
with culpable negligence of a firearm
for not keeping an eye on his loaded
AK-47, authorities said. A four-year-old
boy accidentally shot and killed
his 19-month-old brother with
a handgun in the US state of
Kansas on 29 April.
On 18 April, a three-year-old
girl in Cache County, Utah,
accidentally shot and killed
her two-year-old brother. A day
before that incident, a 6-yearold boy accidentally killed a woman in
South Carolina when he shot a loaded
gun he found in a car.

NT Bureau
Chennai, May 31:
Anna University’s single window counselling for engineering colleges in
Tamilnadu will commence from 23 June and will go up to 28 July.
According to officials, the random numbers will be assigned on 11 June and
the rank list will be published on 16 June.

WHAT NEWS TODAY PRINTS IS NEWS THAT COUNTS
Promising start
I
t is too early to surmise with any degree of nality how
effective and dynamic Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s style of
governance will be, but if early indications are anything to go by,
the hands-on style that has stood him and Gujarat in good stead in
recent years will predictably reap rich dividends at the Centre too.
The 10-point plan unveiled by him for various ministries with a
100-day agenda is doubtlessly well-meaning and well thought-out,
though the real proof of the pudding is in its eating. Along with
the 10-point blueprint for action, the restrictions on ministerial
discretion and the emphasis on accountability and transparency will
indeed be the avowed cornerstones of the Modi administration’s
governance style.
The new Prime Minister has signalled that he means business
when he began his innings by removing the discretion ministers
have in appointing personal staff, including so-called ofcers on
special duty (OSDs), who, in some instances in the past, have
served as conduits for lobbyists or companies looking for a quickx solution. It has been made clear that these appointments will
now have to be routed through the appointments committee of the
Cabinet, headed by the Prime Minister. Having seen how much of
a no-nonsense approach Modi has and how committed to propriety
he is, ministers would be wary of defying his directives. But so deep
has the rot that set in under earlier regimes that some aberrations
may still occur. The credibility of his administration will hinge on
the manner in which Prime Minister Modi deals with the violation
of his diktats. Ministries have also been asked to be more proactive
in the digital medium. On cue, several Ministers have announced
their intention to place online all information about proposals and
clearances in the public domain.
During the tenure of the UPA, the environment ministry was
sharply criticised for delaying approvals and failing to adhere to
timelines. To remedy the situation, the new Environment Minister,
Prakash Javdekar, has cleared the decks for online submission
of applications for environmental clearances, making it easier
for companies to seek approvals. This will ensure that there are
timelines, transparency in (the) application process, and real-time
monitoring of stage-wise clearance. The ministry plans to do the
same with respect to forest clearances next month. Likewise, the
new minister for road transport and shipping, Nitin Gadkari, has
said he wouldl focus on transparent and rapid decision-making
and implement a timebound approach for project completion in the
transport ministry. The ofcials will be accountable for meeting
deadlines, Gadkari told reporters.
Modi has also instructed the ministers to give priority to the issues
brought forth by the state governments, as also by Members of
Parliament. The stress on issues raised by state governments would
particularly be under severe scrutiny because under the UPA, these
were often ignored, despite repeated reminders. Modi himself has
borne the brunt, with his pleas as the Gujarat CM being ignored by
the PMO and the ministries, which resulted often in projects being
delayed.
It is heartening that one of the goals of the government’s 10-point
programme is to build condence in the bureaucracy and to encourage
bureaucrats to come up with innovative ideas. Bureaucrats, in
general, have become mere le-pushers and their instincts for new
ideas have been dulled. Therefore, such an approach could catalyse
decision-making, which is a sore need. As for treating education,
health and water as top priorities, there can hardly be any dispute
on this. While all governments swear by this, what is vital is close
monitoring. While reforms in infrastructure nd a specic mention
in the 10-point plan, there is strangely nothing about agriculture.
It would be in the tness of things that agriculture, which is too
important an area to be set aside, is included in the thrust areas, as
are manufacturing and energy development. It is prudent that the
new plan commits to implement policies in a time-bound manner
so that the government does not suddenly wake up when elections
are round the corner.
Clearly, the Modi government has begun with a plethora of good
intentions. But what distinguishes one government from another
is how much drive, energy and political will it shows in actually
putting those intentions into shape. The testing time for this new
government has begun. The key will lie in good governance,
effective monitoring and sharper accountability.

Empowering women
Sir,
Educating girls raises lifetime incomes for them, their families and their
countries. Educated women are less likely to die in pregnancy or childbirth
and more likely to send their children to school. If mothers have a primary
school education, the mortality rate for their children under ve is halved:
Each additional year of schooling for girls reduces infant mortality for their
offspring by up to 10 per cent. Also, mothers provide better nutrition and
health care and spend more on their children: girls and women spend 90
per cent of their earned income on their families, while men only spend
30-40 per cent.Children of uneducated mothers are half as likely to
attend primary school as those whose mothers attended primary school
themselves.Young people under 25 (half the world’s 6.5 billion people)
need vocational and life skills and access to sexual and reproductive health
information and services, if they are to take full part in their countries’
development and contribute to it.
Secondary and higher education, especially for girls, provides high
returns for poverty reduction, economic growth and reproductive health.
Enabling young couples to choose when to marry and have children leads
to smaller families, slower population growth, increased productivity and
rising incomes.

cannot help point out that this

come down rather alarmingly. And
like a fool, don’t draw my attention

uplinking it on social media with the

The point is you don’t watch the

it more for the copybook thrill and

To tax or not to tax
Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan said he will
strongly recommend increasing taxes on tobacco in
India to the concerned ministries.
The minister was addressing an audience before
releasing a report on the Economic Burden of
Tobacco Related Diseases in India on Thursday
ahead of World No Tobacco Day.
The report, developed by the Public Health
Harsh Vardhan
Foundation of India (PHFI) and supported by
World Health Organization (WHO) and the ministry of health and family
welfare, estimated direct and indirect costs from tobacco-related diseases
that included tuberculosis, cardiovascular diseases and cancers. The total
economic costs attributable to tobacco use from all diseases in India in 2011
amounted to Rs.1.05 trillion, or 1.16 per cent of the gross domestic product.
‘The report provides scientic basis to the public health argument against
tobacco, clearly highlighting the enormous economic burden that the country
is bearing due to tobacco use while the revenue earned
from
tobacco is only a small fraction of the estimated cost of
tobacco,’ said director, Health Promotion, PHFI, Monika
Arora. ‘There is a need to develop a comprehensive
tax policy for all tobacco products so that they are
taxed at similar rates taking into account price
elasticity and income elasticity of demand, along
with ination and changes in household income,’
said WHO representative to India, Nata Menabde.

WHO raises awareness
In observation of World No Tobacco Day,
smokers everywhere will be abstaining from
tobacco for 24 hours. This year, the World
Health Organization (WHO) and its partners
have called on countries to observe the day by
raising taxes on tobacco. Other experts believe
that encouraging the use of e-cigarettes should
be a central goal of the day. However you plan
to observe the day, make sure it’s tobaccofree.
World No Tobacco Day hopes to draw
attention to the global use of tobacco and
the negative health effects. Tobacco kills up
to half of all its users, and each year more
than 600,000 non-smokers die as a result of
secondhand smoke. The day’s ultimate goal is
to contribute to ‘protecting present and future
generations not only from the devastating
health consequences due to tobacco, but also
from the social, environmental and economic
scourges of tobacco use and exposure to
tobacco smoke,’ according to the WHO.

Facts you can’t ignore
• Second-hand smoke is the smoke that lls restaurants, ofces or
other enclosed spaces when people burn tobacco products such
as cigarettes, bidis and water pipes. Everyone is exposed to its
harmful effects.
• Guidelines to Article 8 of the WHO Framework Convention on
Tobacco Control state that there is ‘no safe level of exposure to
tobacco smoke’.
• Second-hand smoke causes 600,000 premature deaths per year.
• In adults, second-hand smoke causes serious cardiovascular and
respiratory diseases, including coronary heart disease and lung
cancer.
• Youths exposed to second-hand smoke at home are one-and-a-half
to two times more likely to start smoking than those not exposed.
• Ten per cent of the economic costs related to tobacco use are
attributable to second-hand smoke.
• Through the tobacco control package called MPOWER, WHO
helps countries to implement the provisions of the WHO Framework
Convention on Tobacco Control to protect people from secondhand smoke.
• Tobacco is the only consumer product that has no good use except
causing death and disability
• At current rates of consumption, 1 billion people will be killed in this
century due to tobacco use
• In India, there are 27.5 crore tobacco users ie every third Indian
adult uses some form of tobacco
• Tobacco kills every third tobacco user prematurely
• Tobacco is responsible for nearly 50 per cent cancers in India
• As per WHO, tobacco addiction is a disease and every third adult
Indian is suffering from a serious disease
• 10 lakh Indians die from tobacco-related diseases each year. It
kills more than suicide, AIDS, TB, accidents, homicides & malaria
combined
• Among kids (age: 13-15), 4 per cent smoke cigarettes and nearly
12 per cent use other tobacco products
• Revenue from tobacco is less than loss from tobacco in form of
death, disability and diseases
• It is the number one cause of preventable death amongst youth

Larsen & Toubro on Friday reported a 69 per cent
increase in standalone net profit to Rs 2,723.48 crore in
the quarter ended 31 March on the back of steep gains in
revenue from its infrastructure and heavy engineering business. The company reported a profit of Rs 1,609.91 crore in
the corresponding quarter a year ago, L&T said in a press
release. Net sales in the quarter increased to Rs 20,079.10
crore from Rs 18,075.60 crore, the company said. Total
expenses rose 7.7 per cent to Rs 17,391.97 crore.
The results for the quarter and year ended 31March
exclude the performance of the hydrocarbon business
segment, which was transferred with effect from 1 April,
2013, to L&T Hydrocarbon Engineering Ltd, a wholly owned
subsidiary of the company. ‘Consequently, the performance
of the corresponding previous quarter and year ended 31
March, 2013, has been suitably restated,’ the company said.
The development agenda of the new government is expected to remove the bottlenecks presently stifling growth
and create an enabling business environment, L&T said
in a statement. Core sectors, including infrastructure and
power, which hold business prospects for the company,
await fresh impetus through focused policy decisions and
rigorous implementation. it said. ‘Being well positioned to
tap the emerging opportunities in its core business, the
company looks forward to a period of renewed investment
momentum and sustainable growth,’ it said.
Customer revenue in the heavy engineering segment
increased 47 per cent to Rs 1,348 crore in the quarter
from a year earlier, L&T said. Revenue in the infrastructure
segment was Rs 13,260 crore, recording an increase of
17 per cent, the company said.
Given its large order book, L&T said it is optimistic about
maintaining its growth momentum in the medium term as
the domestic and global economic environment improves.
The order book was at Rs 1,62,952 crore as of 31 March,
an increase of 13 per cent from a year earlier, it said. Orders
from overseas accounted for about 21 per cent of the total.
L&T said the Middle East region offers prospects in infrastructure and oil and gas sectors. To tackle the challenges
surrounding such opportunities, the company is building
its international organisation, which aims to replicate the
domestic success story in the Middle East.
‘Robust risk management practices, sound execution
strategies and cost competitiveness remain the cornerstones of the international business development strategies,’ it said.

q Bailey hails batting efforts of Sehwag, Raina
‘It was something we could have achieved, the reason
for that is the way Suresh batted.’
‘One of the facts is one of our retained players, Dwayne
Bravo we lost at the start itself, but we still made the
playoffs, we did really well in the tournament,’ he added.
Virender Sehwag, who tormented the CSK bowlers and
set up the win of his side with a 58-ball 122 said Sachin
Tendulkar advised him to spend more time at the crease.
‘I was hitting the ball well throughout. I had a chat with
master also, Sachin Tendulkar. He said your hands are
going well just a matter of one innings, just stay there
and put the conscious effort to stay till the 10-12th over,
everything will be alright,’ Sehwag said.
Asked about determination in his eyes to score, Sehwag
said, ‘I promised someone that there is one innings I have
to play, maybe it will come in the playoffs, today is Ness
Wadia’s birthday, I told him I will give him the best birthday
gift ever. And whenever I got out, my son kept telling
me, ‘papa you are not scoring runs,’ I told him hold
on, there is still time.’
Punjab skipper George Bailey praised both
Sehwag and Raina for their superb batting
efforts.
‘What an innings from Viru, set the platform,
backed up by Miller at the end, almost overshadowed by Suresh’s innings. We have seen
two extraordinary innings tonight.’
Kings XI Punjab coach Sanjay Bangar said, ‘To
beat a team like CSK thrice in a season is an achievement for us, our team showed great character, especially
after CSK scored 100 in six overs.’
Suresh Raina’s run-out after a blazing 87 pegged CSK
back in Qualifier 2 against Kings XI Punjab.
Mumbai, May 31 (PTI):
Mahendra Singh Dhoni was sarcastic in his criticism
of the Chennai Super Kings bowlers as they were
knocked out of the IPL after losing the Qualifier
2 to Kings XI Punjab, here Friday.
Punjab yet again buried CSK under a
mountain of runs, scoring a mammoth 226
for six. It is third time that Punjab scored
more than 200 runs against CSK
‘I had the belief in my bowling that they will
let them score more than 200 runs. But we
need to give them (Punjab) credit, they batted
well,’ Dhoni said.
Dhoni said they sure had a chance to win after Suresh
Raina came up with a stunning knock of 87.

The run-outs of Raina and
McCullum saw Chennai
Super Kings lose momentum when chasing the huge
target set by Kings XI Punjab
in the IPL Qualifier 2, said
CSK’s coach Stephen Fleming after his side’s loss.
‘We did not feel we were
out of the game and certainly the first six overs
showed how good the pitch
was. Tough chasing that

Paris, May 31:
Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic were both
put to the test to reach the
fourth round of the French
Open on Friday while Maria
Sharapova continued to
blaze through a thinning
women’s draw.
In late matches, lanky Canadian Milos Raonic dashed
the hopes of Frenchman
Gilles Simon in a long-drawn
five-setter while German
Angelique Kerber ended the
run of veteran Daniela Hantuchova. Polish third seed
Agnieszka Radwanska
was knocked out 6-4 6-4 by
Croatian Ajla Tomljanovic,
becoming the latest victim
of a new generation of talent sweeping through the
women’s draw. But seventh
seed Sharapova inflicted
the first double bagel of the
tournament to remain the
overwhelming favourite.
Seventeen-times grand
slam champion Federer
saw off Russian Dmitry
Tursunov 7-5, 6-7(7), 6-2,6-4 and Serbian second
Hamilton clears

Rosberg
London, May 31:
Lewis Hamilton has cleared
the air with Mercedes Formula
One team mate Nico Rosberg
after the title-chasing pair fell
out at last weekend’s Monaco
Grand Prix. The Briton, who
lost the overall lead in the
championship to Rosberg
on Sunday after the German
ended Hamilton’s run of four
wins in a row, took to Twitter
on Friday to declare fences
had been mended.
‘We’ve been friends a long
time and as friends we have
our ups and downs. Today
we spoke and we’re cool,
still friends #noproblem,’ declared the 2008 champion.
The Tweet was accompanied by a link to a photograph of the two, together on
unicycles and smiling, from
their teenage years. The
Briton had been distinctly
unsmiling in Monaco after
Rosberg took a controversial
pole position and went on to
win the showcase race for
the second successive year.
Hamilton had suggested
after qualifying that Rosberg
had deliberately run wide in
the final seconds, bringing
out yellow warning flags and
forcing him to slow when he
might have gone faster than
the German.
tiebreak that the six-times
grand slam winner lost 7-2.
Djokovic regained control,
however, and sealed victory when Cilic doublefaulted.
There was no joy for
the other Frenchman on
course as Simon, the 29th
seed, lost to Raonic, who
became the first Canadian
man to reach the round of
16 at Roland Garros.

ECB apologises to
KP over criticism
London, May 31 (AP):
The England and Wales Cricket Board has apologised
to Kevin Pietersen after its head criticised the batsman’s
attitude in the winter Ashes collapse against Australia.
ECB managing director Paul Downton said the 33-year-old
Pietersen appeared ‘disinterested’ and ‘distracted’ in the fifth
Test of the 5-0 series defeat, and claimed in the radio interview that he was unable to find anyone within the England
setup who wanted the player to remain in the team.
Pietersen denied the allegations, and on Friday the ECB
said ‘Paul Downton and the ECB both apologise to Kevin
Pietersen for those comments made that were in breach of
the settlement agreement” made with the batsman when
his England contract was terminated earlier this year. Both
sides were bound by confidentiality provisions.
Cairns provides new
details of fixing claims
Wellington, May 31 (AP):
Chris Cairns has revealed that former New Zealand
captains Stephen Fleming and Daniel Vettori have given
statements to the International Cricket Council about his
alleged role in match fixing.
Cairns, who described the allegations against him as
‘absurd, bizarre and scary,’ held a news conference in
Auckland on Friday on his return to New Zealand from
London, where he was interviewed by the Metropolitan Police and investigators from the England and Wales Cricket
Board and the ICC’s Anti-Corruption and Security Unit.
Reading from a prepared statement, Cairns said he had been
told Fleming, Vettori and fast bowler Kyle Mills had joined former
Test batsman Lou Vincent and current New Zealand captain
Brendon McCullum in making statements to the ICC.
Vincent has been charged with 12 counts of match-fixing
relating to matches in England. In his evidence to ACSU
investigators, which was leaked to British newspapers, he
said he was involved in spot fixing in five countries and answered to a former star player, identified initially as Player X.
Cairns has denied any involvement in match fixing, but
said he believes he is that player.
McCullum, in evidence which was also leaked to the British
media, said he was twice approached in 2008 and encouraged to become involved in match fixing. Cairns said he believes evidence provided to the ICC by Fleming, Vettori and
Mills relates to McCullum’s claim. ‘Based on the information
I was provided in London, I now understand that there were
two past players and one current New Zealand player who
Mr. McCullum said he spoke to about the alleged approach,’
Cairns said. ‘These three ex or current New Zealand players
have made no direct accusation against me.’
Cairns identified the players as Fleming, Vettori and
Kyle Mills, the brother of New Zealand Cricket Players’
Association head Heath Mills. ‘Two of these men made
statements supporting McCullum’s claim that he spoke to
them. The third man told investigators his memory was
foggy and he could not make a statement in support of
McCullum,’ Cairns told the news conference. ‘It is also
significant that none of those players
MCC ‘snub’
sparked Flintoff
comeback
St John’s, May 31:
Off-spinner Sunil Narine
has opted out of the West
Indies side for the Test series against New Zealand
starting 8 June.
Narine has informed the
West Indies Cricket Board
(WICB) that he would not
be available to join the
West Indies Training Camp
which starts in Barbados 1
June, reports CMC.
The Trinidadian spinner
has decided to remain in
India to represent Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)
against Kings XI Punjab
in the final of the Indian
Premier League (IPL) on
Sunday.
‘Narine had been in discussions with the WICB
and was required to inform the Board by 24 May
whether he will join the
squad currently in training
in Barbados 1 June,’ said
a statement from WICB
released on Friday.
‘Narine had indicated by
the 24 May deadline that
he will join the squad 1
June as required. Narine subsequently told the WICB
on Wednesday that he would not be able to meet the 1
June requirement.’
The WICB release says Narine will be considered for
selection to the squad for the two Twenty20 Internationals
against New Zealand 5 and 6 July in Dominica.
WICB director of cricket, Richard Pybus, says the guiding
principle of the West Indies First Policy, recently approved
by the board of directors, requires players to make themselves available for team preparations.
‘The onus of the WICB is to protect the integrity of international cricket at all times,’ Pybus said.
‘International cricket, and specifically Test cricket, is a
priority and requires dedicated preparation which is integral to team success. The WICB policy requires players
to commit to sufficient preparation... as part of a culture
of excellence.’
WICB’s chief executive Michael Muirhead says players
in breach of the 1 June
deadline would not be considered for selection. ‘It
is his decision,’ Muirhead
said Friday.
‘The cut-off date for joining the camp was moved
forward from 22 May to 1
June specifically to allow
those players involved in
the IPL the opportunity for
more matches. Anyone
who is in breach won’t be
considered for selection.’
Muirhead explained that
if Narine misses the deadline, he would be unavailable for the first Test in
Kingston 8 and 12 June,
but would remain in the
chosen squad of 15 and be
eligible for the remainder of
the series.
The IPL management is
reported to be involved in
the issue and is said to
have made a case to the
WICB on Narine’s behalf.

London, May 31 (AFP):
Andrew Flintoff has revealed how being overlooked for the upcoming
Lord’s Bicentenary match
between Marylebone
Cricket Club (MCC) and
the Rest of the World
spurred him on to make a
Twenty20 comeback with
Lancashire.
The Red Rose county
confirmed Friday that
Flintoff, one of their
favourite sons, had
been included in the
squad for the county’s
domestic Twenty20
campaign.
Former England captain
Flintoff, in injury-induced
retirement for five years,
wasn’t selected to play in
the team that faced Warwickshire on Friday but is
in line to return at home
to Lancashire’s arch-rivals
Yorkshire at Old Trafford a
week on Friday.
Before announcing his
comeback, the 36-year-old
said he’d hoped to have
been chosen for the starstudded match marking the
200th anniversary of Lord’s
in July.

Revival on cards?
Coimbatore, May 31 (PTI):
With the new government taking charge at the Centre, financial institutions can expect revival of construction equipment and commercial
vehicle sectors, which had gone through a difficult period for the last
two years, a top official of L&T Finance Ltd said.
These sectors were experiencing about 30 per cent minus growth for
the last two years and L&T Finance would consider a ‘wait and watch
policy’ for revival of the industry since a new government would be in
place, company’s MD and CEO Dinanath Dubhashi said.
Stating that the company has been growing consistently at 40 per
cent for the last five years with a strong countrywide base, he said
the uniqueness lay in the fact that it was one of the few companies
that has multiple presence across various sectors, including rural
infrastructure and micro finance.
The company’s lending book was Rs 40,000 crore, with retail and
mid-corporate portfolio standing at Rs 22,000 crore and infrastructure
at Rs 18,000 crore, he said, adding that tractor credit contributed to
20 per cent of the total portfolio, with a Compounded Annual Growth
Rate at 30 percent.
Though the company has a 25 per cent market share in two wheelers
credit, the share in the car segment was very meagre at 1.5 per cent,
Dubashi, who was here to inaugurate the 16th branch in Tamilnadu,
said.
Asked about foraying into SME sector, he said the company was
laying greater focus on the sector, particularly auto anciallary units
and also Coimbatore, being a hub for SME sector.
Now is the time
q‘Next 30 days best to buy real estate’
NT Bureau
Chennai, May 31:
Nearly 60 per cent of Indians think
that next one month would be a good
time to buy real estate with improvement in consumer sentiments following formation of a stable government,
according to a survey by global
research firm Ipsos.
‘Almost six in ten (57 per cent)
Indians think the next 30 days will
be a good time to buy real estate,
such as a house, vacation property
or investment property,’ Ipsos said in
a statement.
Founded in France in 1975, Ipsos
is an independent market research
company controlled and managed
by research professionals.
‘With the formation of a new stable government at the Centre, the
consumer sentiment which was low
in the last two years has improved
significantly. The stock market has
already reacted in a positive manner
reflecting this change, the real estate
prices are expected to go northwards
by the end of the year,’ said associate
director, Ipsos
Business Consulting, Bhasker CaNew Delhi, May 31 (PTI): nagaradjou.
Realty giant DLF plans to raise upto Rs 3,500 crore this fiscal through issue of The realtors reeling under large
securities backed by commercial assets, after successfully raking in Rs 525 crore scale of debt are offering discounts
DLF to raise
Rs 3,500 crore
via India’s first commercial mortgage backed securities
(CMBS).
‘We plan to have 3 more properties under CMBS. We are
targeting to raise another Rs 3,000-3,500 crore through
CMBS,’ DLF executive director Finance Saurabh Chawla
said. Chawla said the three properties under proposed
CMBS would be office buildings and not retail malls of the
country’s largest realty firm. In an analyst call, Chawla,
however, said the new Companies Act makes it far more
difficult to bring such products.
The new offerings would be over and above the Rs 525
crore already raised and another issue of Rs 375 crore
in the pipeline backed by another mall in Delhi ‘DLF
Promenade’.
On 23 May, DLF had said it raised Rs 525 crore through
CMBS backed by luxury shopping mall ‘DLF Emporio’ in
the national capital. The CMBS carries a coupon rate of
10.9 per cent. In an analyst presentation, DLF said it would
continue to focus on opportunities to improve quality and
tenure of debt such as through issuance of CMBS etc.
Players want
faster reforms
Mumbai, May 31:
With the Narendra Modi government taking charge earlier this week, real estate
players hope the sector will get due priority, which will help bring the economy back
to 8-9 percent growth.
‘The new government will pave way for
realty reforms and take concrete steps to
implement its promise given in the BJP
manifesto to ensure housing for all in eight
years,’
Confederation of Real Estate Developers’
Associations of India (Credai) Lalit Kumar
Jain said.
The merger of Housing and Urban Development Department will ensure coordination and proper control, he said.
‘The new government will bring in a positive change to developers and buyers in
the otherwise dark era that has been witnessed during the previous government,’
Jain added.
Expressing similar sentiment, Jones Lang
LaSalle’s Santhosh Kumar said, ‘For the
common man, the dream to own a house
will soon turn into a reality. Issues such
as affordability of real estate, delayed
construction projects, delays due to litigations surrounding real estate projects,
which have impacted developers as well
as consumers, are likely to be resolved.’
The new government will bring the economy back on track and raise the currently
plummeting GDP to 8-9 percent in the coming fiscal, he said.
‘The new government at the centre is
expected to infuse life in the existing
policy paralysis in the country by removing
the major bottlenecks that are deterring
growth. Besides, FDI in the sector is also
expected to get a lift, resulting in amplification of fund flows and strengthening of
the battered rupee,’ he said.
Global investors are now markedly optimistic about the economy, which is expected
to witness more than 100 percent increase
in foreign investment inflows, both through
FDIs and FIIs, to above USD 60 billion in the
current financial year, as compared to USD
29 billion during FY14, Kumar said.
The realtors reeling
under large scale
of debt are offering
discounts to reduce
their inventory
levels taking advantage of the new
found optimism in
the market
to reduce their inventory levels taking
advantage of the new found optimism
in the market.
The residential real estate market
may see an uptick in the demand
and increase in the number of transactions in the near future, he added.
Majority (65 per cent) of people in
Russia think next 30 days would be
a good time to buy property followed
by India (57 per cent), Indonesia
(55 per cent), Ireland (51 per cent),
Great Britain (47 per cent), Mexico
(44 per cent), Australia (42 per cent),

NO CHILD’S PLAY
(Poovarasan Peepee)
P
oovarasan Peepee is a film that involves students who are on a summer vacation and their daredevil acts.
We have seen children’s films like Anjali, Pasanga and Goli Soda. But Poovarasan Peepee is different.
It speaks about children from the minds of grown-ups. There is an exaggeration of events.
Produced by cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa, who cranked the camera for films like Nanban
and Asal, the movie has three young boys Gaurav Kalai, Sai Hari and Vasanth playing the lead. Halitha
Shameem, who worked as an associate with the likes of Pushkar - Gayathri, Mysskin and Samudhirakani
has directed the film.
The movie is set in a village where the three boys Gaurav Kalai, Sai Hari and Vasanth are close buddies.
One fine day, the trio spots a gang raping and killing a dhobi woman in the village. They make the
villagers believe that the woman has had a natural death.
The boys now vow to bring the gang to book. They hatch one plan after another to set things right.
How they execute their plans and teach the baddies a lesson is what the movie is all about.
Halitha Shameem has gathered the guts to discuss life in villages, the pitiable condition of schools
and the flawed education system.
Arul Dev’s music and the Halitha’s crisp yet simple dialogues add value to the script. Manoj Paramahamsa captures the innocence in villages to near perfection.
Gaurav Kalai, Sai Hari and Vasanth excel in their roles. But the filmmaker could have avoided some
scenes where the children are shown as thinking like grown-up adults. But for those who are sick of
cliched cinema, Poovarasan Peepee is worth a watch.

‘Anurag is
a great director’
S
inger Remo Fernandes, who is making his full-fledged acting debut in director Anurag Kashyap’s
Bombay Velvet, says the filmmaker is a great person to work with.
The 61-year-old Humma Humma singer said Anurag made him feel comfortable on the sets of the
film, which stars Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma in the lead.
Bombay Velvet is my first acting experience and a wonderful experience too, as Anurag is such a great
director. He has a genuinely friendly way of putting an actor (specially a newcomer) at ease,’ he said.
Bombay Velvet explores the dark side of history of Mumbai and how it became a metropolis against
the backdrop of love, greed, violence and music.
The Goan singer, who has featured on big screen earlier in minor roles, is playing a Portuguese
aristocrat in the film based on Gyan Prakash’s book Mumbai Fables.
‘Acting is a brand new world for me. Luckily, at this stage, I will never be asked to play a hero, so
I will never be trapped in a typecast role. I can, therefore, happily take on any role I get from a good
director,’ he said.
Besides Bombay Velvet, the singer would be seen in a small role in Mohit Suri’s upcoming thriller Ek
Villain. On Suri’s film, he said All I can say is I’m playing a mafia don. It’s a short role, so don’t expect
too much out of it.
Having enjoyed a successful music career for many years, Remo felt his shift towards acting is an
intelligent decision and part of a new learning process.
