NEW DELHI/CUTTACK, MAY 26 (PTI): On the fourth anniversary of the BJP-led NDA government, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said people have put a seal of approval on its performance while party chief Amit Shah asserted that its return to power in 2019 is not a challenge but a certainty.

Modi addressed a rally to mark the anniversary of his government and chose Odisha, a state high on his party’s agenda for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

He said his government’s fight against corruption has sent “shivers down the spines of many who have come on one platform”, a reference to opposition parties which have been in talks to put up a united fight against the ruling alliance.

At the rally in Cuttack, the prime minister said his government is moving on the correct path and people have put their seal of approval on it as he noted that his party is in power in 20 states.

Dr. Shürhozelie justifies stand DIMAPUR, MAY 26 (NPN): Unfazed by the complaint lodged by PDA alliance partners against him with the ECI, the NPF president, Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu, on Saturday justified his stand, saying he was defending Article 25 of the Constitution of India, which safeguards freedom of religion.

He said lodging complaint against him was “a sign of desperateness” on the part of BJP and NDPP. According to NPF central press bureau, the party president said freedom of religion was there in Nagaland for everyone including Hindus and Muslims.

However, he said that freedom was no more in some of the BJP-ruled states.

Addressing party workers at his residential office Saturday morning, the NPF president pointed out that atrocities committed against the Christians rose from 177 incidents in 2015 to 351 in 2017.

Referring to NDPP and BJP complaint that his speech could result in violent clashes and street fights, the NPF president said it clearly indicated their intention to create problems. In this regard, he warned the party members to remain alert.

No community should subdue another, says Manipur CM Biren

Correspondent

IMPHAL, May 26: Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh Saturday called upon all communities living in the state to discard the notion of belonging to small or big community and uphold the sense of oneness.

“Only then all round development can be brought about in the state,” Singh said while addressing the opening session of the 24th Khurpui-Lam Festival, 2018 at Chandrakirti Auditorium in Imphal’s Palace Compound on Saturday.

Khurpui-Lam is an annual festival of Kom tribe of Manipur.

People of around 36 communities have been living together harmoniously in the state since time immemorial, and this is the beauty of unity in diversity, Singh said.

While urging every community to respect others, Singh said “no group/ community should try to

subdue another tribe or community in any manner.” He also lauded Kom community for protecting their culture and identity.

The present government’s ‘Go to Hill’ mission was introduced with the aim to regain the trust and love between the hill people and valley people, he added. Stating that his government was trying to

trace the old sacred places, which have connection with the civilization of Manipur, he informed that heritage complexes would be developed at different places like Makhel-Sajouba, Koubru and Anal Khullen etc.

The Chief Minister assured that government would consider Kom people’s demand for announcing Khurpui-Lam as a state

Mnp Cong observes Modi govt’s anniv as ‘Vishwasghat Divas’

Sikkim govt issues advisory on Nipah

IMPHAL, May 26: As part of its nation-wide programme, the Congress in Manipur staged a protest in Imphal on Saturday to observe the “Vishwasghat Diwas” on the fourth anniversary of the BJP’s Narendra Modi-led NDA government at the Centre.

Leaders of the Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) accused Narendra Modi of running a “terrorist government” while asserting that people of the country were facing a “Reign of Terror”.

Among others, MPCC president TN Haokip, opposition leader and former Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh and former Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam took part in the protest.

The Prime Minister has failed to translate any of BJP’s pre-poll promises into action, former Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh said.

“People have now realized

that the BJP is befooling them. They are fed up with slogan after slogan of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with no action at all,” he said.

“The BJP-led coalition government here in Manipur is of no difference.

Like Modi, the state chief minister is also befooling the public with slogans which never turn into action,” Ibobi added.

While reminding that Narendra Modi had promised to create two crore jobs each year, Ibobi said, “in the last four years instead of creating job, people, in term of lakh, were rendered jobless.”

The untimely introduction of GST has put an end to the small time entrepreneur and demonetization has left over lakhs people jobless, he claimed Ibobi also lambasted the Modi government saying that atrocities on Dalit/ Adivasis/minorities/women and children were on the rise in the last four years.

Gangtok, May 26 (PTI): The Sikkim health department has issued an advisory urging the people of the state to take precaution against Nipah virus.

“Though there is minimal possibility of Nipah virus in Sikkim, but the people need to take precaution,” it said in an advisory in the wake of Nipah outbreak in Kerala.

The symptoms of the virus include fever, headache, vomiting and fainting.

Some may show symptoms of epilepsy. The symptoms may last 10-12 days followed by unconsciousness and death as a result of brain fever, the advisory said.

Rangia, May 26 (PTI): Five persons, including a minor boy, were rescued from a house where they were lodged for alleged trafficking near Rangia railway station, the police said Saturday.

Acting on a tip off, a police team raided the house and rescued the five persons yesterday, a police officer said.

The trafficker who had kept the five persons in the house is absconding and a search launched to track him. On being interrogated the five told the police that they had separately come to Guwahati’s business area Paltanbazar Friday from different parts of Assam, Meghalaya and West Bengal

Ampati, May 26: Congress candidate, Miani D Shira Saturday filed an FIR against Meghalaya Home Minister, James K Sangma and his sister, Agatha K Sangma who is also the MLA of South Tura constituency for allegedly violating the model code of conduct while campaigning for the by-election to Ampati assembly constituency.

In the FIR, Shira, eldest daughter of the Leader of Opposition and former Chief Minister, Mukul Sangma, alleged that James and Agatha tried to enter people’s homes and “bribe” the voters for votes in favour of the National People’s Party (NPP) candidate, Clement G Momin.

The Congress candidate said that the senior NPP leaders reached Taktaki village around 12:30 am and tried to enter people’s home and bribed them with money in favour of votes for the NPP candidate (Momin). The by-election was necessitated after Mukul resigned from Ampati after winning from Songsak seat

in search of employment when an unknown man suddenly came to them and offered them jobs in biscuit and iron factories in Jammu and Kashmir.

The four men in their early 20s and the minor boy about 15 years old belonging to poor families in Darjeeling in WB, Shillong in Maghalaya and Helem, Gohpur and Lakhimpur in Assam were offered Rs 8000 per month as salary and other facilities, they told the police.

The unknown trafficker brought them to Rangia from Guwahati and lodged them in a room near the railway station. The police have arranged to send the

as well in the state assembly election on February 27.

The by-elections will be held on May 28 and the result will be declared on May 31.

“It is true that an FIR was received in the wee hour at 2.30 am on Saturday, and action would be taken. The situation has been under control,” South West Garo Hills Superintendent of Police, Bobby S W Momin said.

He said that all security measures were being taken to ensure that the conduct of the by-election is held peacefully.

Meanwhile, polling personnel for the by-election to Ampati Assembly Constituency made way for their respective polling stations on the first day of movement on May 26. Ampati has 39 polling stations and on the first day, polling parties for the farthest twenty one polling stations were deployed.

Out of the polling stations, six have been classified as vulnerable due to various reasons including group clashes, interstate border areas, elephant infestation and remoteness.

five rescued persons back to their respective homes with the help of their family, he said.

Rangia railway station is being used as a transit point by human traffickers due to easy communication from there to the rest of the country and Nepal, the police said.

The Railway Protection Force rescued six girls, including four minors, on May 21 when they were being allegedly trafficked at Rangia railway station, five minor boys and five men on May 15, besides sixteen girls, including nine minors, early in the month from the same place, the police said.

Itanagar, May 26 (PTI): Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu has said that tourism is the only sector after hydro power that could help the state to develop economically.

Speaking at the 12th Arunachal Pradesh Tour Operators’ Association (APTOA) Travel Congress here Friday, Khandu said after hydro power, tourism holds maximum potential.

“We need to concentrate on our next viable potential sector, which is undoubtedly tourism,” he said.

L a u d i n g A P TOA , a conglomerate of local tour operators of the state, Khandu said the tourism sector has grown exponentially in the last couple of years due to their sincere efforts.

Despite increase in the number of tourists, the state is way behind the national average and has to work much more, Khandu said.

“We can attract tourists more than what we are doing right now,” he said.

The chief minister also called upon the state tourism department authorities to finalise the draft of the state tourism policy that will chalk out a roadmap for the sector to grow.

Keep environment safety in Concurrent List: Tripura CM Agartala, May 26 (IANS): Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb has urged the central government to keep the conservation and protection of environment in the Concurrent List of constitution instead of only in the Union List, an official said on Saturday.

Addressing the 13th meeting of the standing committee of the Inter State Council (ISC) in Delhi on Friday, Deb said: “Both Central and state governments are equally responsible for the conservation and protection of environment. Hence, this subject must be kept in the Concurrent List of the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution instead of the Union List only”.

The Chief Minister said in forest-rich states like Tripura, there are comparatively lesser land availability for undertaking developmental activities such as agriculture and industrial activity.

“Tripura must be adequately compensated for

their efforts to maintain and enhance forest cover in the state. The 15th Finance Commission must give adequate weight age to this factor while determining devolution formula of central funds to the states,” a statement quoted him as saying.

In Delhi, after the ISC meeting, the Chief Minister met the Union Communications Minister of State (Independent Charge) Manoj Sinha and raised the issue of the requirement of cost-effective and reliable internet facilities in Tripura and assured internet connectivity to all the Gram Panchayats (GPs).

New Delhi, May 26 (IANS): The Congress on Thursday accused the Modi government of betraying the people on various issues including employment, better administration, proper cost on farmers’ crops and control on the prices of petrol and diesel and on matters of national security.

Addressing a press conference on the occasion of the NDA government completing four years in office, Congress Spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said: “Modi spends Rs 4,600 crore on advertisement indulging in perpetual campaign without understanding people’s pain.

In four years, Surjewala alleged that Modi accumulated publicity but India only accumulated pain. “We saw suit and boot, loot and scoot but

Randeep Singh Surjewala

farmers bear pain acute.

Dalits suffer force brute.

Entire BJP mindset bring this repute. Youth betrayed.

Don’t persecute, don’t prosecute,” he said.

Sur jewala said the people believed that the government would get back black money from abroad, better administration and national security, better cost on farmers’ crops, employment for the youths

and control on the prices of petrol and diesel but they were betrayed on all these fronts.

Surjewala summed up Modi government’s rule saying, “treachery, trickery, revenge and lies are the four words that define Modi government’s four years.”

Congress General Secretary Ashok Gehlot said unemployment has increased during the BJP rule. The party cited labour bureau statistics in the booklet to say that the BJP-led Union government created only 4.16 lakh jobs in 2016-17 against Modi’s promise of creating 2 crore jobs per year.

Gehlot attacked Prime Minister, saying “no other Prime Minister has ever lowered down the dignity of the post of PM like Modi.”

Releasing a booklet titled “India Betrayed...In Four Years Of BJP’s Misrule”, the Congress party said that the agriculture sector remained stressed during the past four years as farmers did not receive the minimum support price for their produce.

The party said lowest ever agriculture growth under Modi government 1.9 per cent was witnessed in last four years as compared to 4.2 per cent under Congress between 2004-2014.

It said doubling farmers income by the year 2022 is a “Jumla” as Compound Annual Growth Rate is 2.5 per cent against the required 10.4 per cent.

Tragically, 35 farmers are driven to suicide in every 24 hours, said the party, adding Modi government refuses to ‘waive farm

loans’.

It said Maharashtra BJP government promises loan waiver to 89 lakh farmers but denies benefits to nearly 30 lakh in garb of Aadhaar linked forms. In BJP ruled Uttar Pradesh, 11,700 farmers get loan waiver of pittance of Rs 1 to Rs 500. The Congress accused the government, saying companies profiteer Rs 14,828 crore from PM’s “Fasal Bima Yojana” but farmers get paid only Rs 5,650 crore.

C i t i n g a n Re s e r ve Bank of India (RBI) report, the Congress said that Rural Wage Growth dips from 38 per cent in 2014 to 0 per cent in 2018, MGNREGA work days drops from 45 days in 2014 to 16.3 days in 2018 and that 99 per cent of NREGA wages remain unpaid in April 2018.

10 killed in multivehicle collision in Telangana Hyderabad, May 26 (IANS): Ten people were killed and 26 others injured in a multi-vehicle collision in Telangana’s Siddipet district on Saturday evening, police said. The accident involving a bus, two trucks and a SUV occurred on Hyderabad-Ramagundam highway at Pragnapur in Siddipet district, about 60 km from here.

According to police, a bus proceeding to Mancherial from Hyderabad lost control and collided head-on with a truck coming from opposite direction on Rajiv Rahadari, as the highway is known. The truck hit the road divider and collided with a Qualis and a container lorry. The Qualis was crushed between the truck and container lorry.

New Delhi, May 26 (IANS): A court here on Saturday convicted extradited gangster Abu Salem in a 2002 extortion case.

Additional Sessions Judge Tarun Sahrawat convicted him under Section 387 (putting person in fear of death or of grievous hurt, in order to commit extortion) and Section 506 (criminal intimidation) of Indian Penal Code, but acquitted him of charges of the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act. The court has acquitted co-accused Pawan Kumar Mittal alias Raja Bhai, Mohd Ashraf alias Bablu, Majid Khan alias Raju Bhai and Chanchal Mehta. The court will hear arguments on quantum of sentence against

“The victim reached the Women Police Station on Friday evening with her husband after she developed some complications in her pregnancy. A case was registered after her medical examination.

Doctors, however, said the foetus is stable,” the officer added.

The victim told the police that the accused gave her a glass of water, after drinking which she fell unconscious.

“I can recall that they were three. But I don’t know the place they took me to,” she said in her complaint.

Police have initiated an investigation into the case to nab the culprits.

Singh also accused Modi of trying to distract people from unemployment, economic slowdown, and farmer distress by talking about ‘fitness’ of late.

“Excise duty on fuel

has been hiked to an exorbitant level -- more than 211 per cent increase compared to the 2014 levels. Until Karnataka elections, the Centre was forced to control petrol and diesel prices, but as soon as the voting ended, the prices were increased.

We are paying the highest prices for fuel in the entire subcontinent. We will see a direct rise in inflation as a consequence,” the AAP leader said.

AAP spokesperson Dilip Pandey said that every scheme announced by the NDA government was a renamed version of previous governments. “Instead of making them work, the focus is on the publicity and propaganda of the scheme.

CBSE class 12 topper scores 499 out of 500

Meghna Srivastava

New Delhi, May 26 (IANS): As the CBSE Class 12 results came out on Saturday afternoon, 17year-old Meghna Srivastava of Noida started getting screenshots from friends informing her of a happy news - she had topped the exam in which over 11 lakh students appeared, scoring 499 out of 500.

Born and brought up in Noida, Meghna told IANS that it never occurred to her that she would top the examination. “My parents and I were shocked and surprised.”

As her levels of shock came down by a notch towards evening, she said that being consistent was the key to her success.

“I like baking and I used to watch a lot of TV,” said the student from Noida’s Step By Step School.

“I used to watch mostly English shows -- ‘The Office’, ‘Breaking Bad’...

Anything on TV”, she added, terming Netflix “one of her favourite pastimes”.

She also liked to listen to music and read nonfiction, but her hobbies did not mean that she was not serious about her studies.

“I had no particular style of studying and I never counted the number of hours I studied, but I must have studied around seven-eight hours a day,” said Meghna, a humanities student, stressing that she was consistent, stable and relaxed.

“You have to be consistent so that you do not panic at the last minute,” she said.

The 17-year-old, who loves to study psychology, said that she has got into the University of British Columbia in Canada, and would be starting there in August.

Dream on

here is a wide focus on 2019, when India votes the next parliament and subsequently the formation of the next government even as media speculates on the likely scenario. After the recent Karnataka election where the BJP was the actual winner but short of nine seats to cross the halfway 112 mark in the 224 member house; the installation of a non-BJP coalition has energised proposals for an anti-Modi alliance comprising of all opposition parties. Even the opposition unity has two options- one which includes the Congress and the other without it. Now, the dream of taking on Modi through unity sounds exciting especially for regional parties that have no reach beyond their respective states even if their leaders harbour big ambition to be prime minister. The clamour for opposition unity has pushed the prime ministerial dream closer as 2019 approaches. The reversal of the BJP’s fortunes in Karnataka marks one more election loss at the hands of a united opposition.

Despite a string of state poll victories, alliances have also thwarted Modi in recent Uttar Pradesh by-elections and in the 2015 Bihar state elections.

That appears to be the single-most important point that has given the opposition a shot in the arm for coming together and win the 2019 election. True, that most of the opposition parties have a secular concern with the majoritarian impulses of the Modi government and incremental attacks on the Constitution and subversion of institutions safeguarding our democracy. However, that alone is not enough to ensure a victory. The million dollar question: What is the plank on which the Opposition parties unite against Narendra Modi’s BJP for 2019? Is it going to be on the lines of “protect the Constitution” or “save democracy” etc? If so, it is simply not going to work even if the arithmetic were to favour the Opposition. Unlike Indira Gandhi and her subversion of institutions in the run-up to and during the period of Emergency, Narendra Modi has been very clever with the way he has gone about centralising power and chipping away at the pillars of democracy. A negative campaign against Modi will not be enough even if the arithmetic favours the Opposition. Unlike the BJP which proved it was an exceptionally proactive opposition during UPA rule, almost all non-BJP parties have not been successful in mobilising the anger among sections of people against the BJP government and channelising it to win elections. The opposition parties could not raise the level against demonetisation as they broke ranks on it. Also on the issue of suicides by farmers, they have not made much impact. Congress has to take the biggest share of the blame on this front. However, Congress as an organisation is hardly present on the ground even in states where they are the primary Opposition to the BJP. It’s very different in BJP’s case as they have radicalised youth (and the not so young) fed on anti-minority propaganda getting coached in their shakhas. For the joint Opposition to succeed in dislodging BJP, it’s imperative that they come up with a positive agenda for the nation rather than convert it into a wholly negative campaign against Modi. There is nobody more adept at playing victim than Modi and he might be able to do that successfully once again and comeback stronger in 2019.

DailyDevotion Thinking of Prayer as Jesus Taught Pray without ceasing… —1 Thessalonians 5:17 Our thinking about prayer, whether right or wrong, is based on our own mental conception of it. The correct concept is to think of prayer as the breath in our lungs and the blood from our hearts.

Our blood flows and our breathing continues “without ceasing”; we are not even conscious of it, but it never stops. And we are not always conscious of Jesus keeping us in perfect oneness with God, but if we are obeying Him, He always is. Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life of the saint. Beware of anything that stops the offering up of prayer. “Pray without ceasing…”— maintain the childlike habit of offering up prayer in your heart to God all the time.

Jesus never mentioned unanswered prayer. He had the unlimited certainty of knowing that prayer is always answered. Do we have through the Spirit of God that inexpressible certainty that Jesus had about prayer, or do we think of the times when it seemed that God did not answer our prayer? Jesus said, “…everyone who asks receives…” (Matthew 7:8). Yet we say, “But…, but….” God answers prayer in the best way— not just sometimes, but every time.

However, the evidence of the answer in the area we want it may not always immediately follow. Do we expect God to answer prayer?

The danger we have is that we want to water down what Jesus said to make it mean something that aligns with our common sense. But if it were only common sense, what He said would not even be worthwhile. The things Jesus taught about prayer are supernatural truths He reveals to us.

You can put your Untouchability does not reside in devils under your feet brahmin finger, it is Hindu scheme of life Y

O

n May 21, the Vice President of India, Venkaaiah Naidu awarding Adi Shankara Young Scientist at the Institute of Engineering & Technology in Kalady, said: “We have to get rid of the practice of untouchability, unfortunately, after so many years of civilization and Independence, even today we hear about untouchability. It has to be ended.”

The Indian Constitution is against it, the Government prevents its practice, it is criminal to practice it in India, but still Untouchability atrociously continues in India because it is an integral part of the religion of the Hindus, the vast majority of the ancient civilization of India. Caste System is the living Hindu Scheme of Life and when something becomes a Scheme, a Plan or a System, even a minute bit of it becomes

very powerful.

Untouchability is not in the fingers of the Brahmins. It is not the Skin of a person, it has no separate color and it is odorless; yet it is an integral part of the ancient Caste System of India, a Scheme of Hindu Way of Life, still continuing perniciously in modern India, and perhaps everywhere in the world Hindus live together in sizeable community.

If the Hindu Scheme of Life were an Issue of Spirituality, this fellow has nothing to say, even if the Naga openly on their own embrace it, but the evil curse of Untouchability deeply draws its sustenance from the Hindu religion and utterly de-humanize the helpless dispossessed untouchables of India’s low Castes. In addition, collaterally daub Christians and the Tribal wrongly as equivalent to the Un-

Requisition of vehicles for election duty – a concern

I

t concerns one and all in the manner in which vehicles, government/private, are requisitioned for election duty. It has been observed that the district administration exercise powers in a more or less barbaric, tyrannical or inhumane way. Firstly, private vehicles which are bought with the hard-earned money to be used for serving the owner are seized randomly without any prior notification.

During the last general election, a man taking his pregnant wife to a hospital was seized on the way and the helpless couple was made to walk to the hospital in the rain.

Government vehicles are surrendered 1-2 weeks in advance as a consequence senior officers are compelled to either use their staff bus (if not requisitioned) or unable to perform important official duties/meetings within and outside the district or state. On release of the vehicles after election one has to shell out some Rs 50,000/- on an average, or even more for repairing these SUVs belonging to senior officers. Are u guys, I mean the present day fresh administrators even aware of it? Coming to the taxis, the drivers are treated more inhumanely. They have already sacrificed two weeks earning, which comes to approximately Rs. 40,000 to Rs 50,000/-on an average. Now who is going to recover this?

These taxi drivers also have families to feed, school fees and house rents to be paid. And why are they made to sleep in their taxis at the public ground and fed with dal, potato and rice. Are they criminals? Why are they locked-up in the public ground?

I think there are many areas that can be improved lest everyone start turning a blindeye on this infamous practice. And I am sure that several crores of money are sanctioned by the Centre for conducting election, then why are these hapless drivers not even paid their necessary allowances/entitlements? There are still outstanding dues yet to be paid to taxi drivers from the last general election.

obedience attracts the blessings from god! In his argument on untouchability with Ambedkar, the Mahatma told the Dalit Leader: “I am a Harijan by choice, you by birth, there is no difference” This Writer did not know what Ambedkar has replied. If this writer were asked, he would have replied: ‘the difference is Gold after burning the Dross in the Furnace’.

The Mahatma becoming a Dalit by choice would in no way change the evil Caste System of India.

This is religio-social hegemony, if it is unacceptable to enlightened democratic modern Hindu Leaders of India, there is no way the equality-conscious, politically-eyed Naga would ever accept it even if the Government daubs them Secessionists or anti-national Christians.

Karnataka shadow on Modi’s 4th anniversary

I

f Narendra Modi expected Karnataka to be the icing on the cake on the eve of the completion of his four years in office, he must be disappointed.

Yet, the setback in the southern state is only one of the several reverses which the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has suffered in the recent past.

These include a series of byelection defeats in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and UP, which have not been adequately compensated by the party’s successes in the northeast. That’s because electoral outcomes in the country’s heartland have a greater salience than those in a region generally regarded as remote.

Considering that three more assembly elections are due in the next few months where the BJP is facing the anti-incumbency factor, it is obvious that Modi’s fourth anniversary is not the happiest of occasions. Several things appear to have gone wrong for the Prime Minister and his party. Foremost among them is the general bleakness of the economic scene because of the paucity of jobs and the continuing agrarian distress.

But even more than the economic woes -- which have led to the blanking out of the phrase ‘achhe din’ (good days) from the saffron lexicon -- what may have hurt the government even more is an intimidating atmosphere generated by a political proj-

Bad roads

he condition of the roads of a society is a direct reflection of its people. The road conditions in a particular place or area is a boon or a bane for its residents.

In the case of Dimapur town, sadly the road conditions are of very poor quality. The road conditions would definitely fail to meet any modern benchmark as a denizen of Dimapur and a regular driver one can surely say gaga driving is not a pleasure experience. Innumerable potholes and a large road depression cause a lot of discomfort to one’s daily commute.

This discomfort is compounded by multiple traffic jams that cause all and sundry decay. Bad roads and traffic jam increase the fuel consumption and car maintenance bills. A lot of citizens of Dimapur spend a lot of their income on fuel and garage bills.

We the people of Dimapur perhaps spend the most money on very frequent car repair caused by our road conditions another very negative aspect of bad road conditions is that one’s daily travel time gets extended by the time taken to travel from one destination to another. Sometimes because of traffic jam one has to leave early than usual otherwise we will not reach our destination on time.

touchables in the eye of the less-educated mass voters and send their representatives to the Parliament to make desirable Acts and Rules for all the population of India.

Untouchability is APERTHEID, denial of freedom of residence, refusal to allow moustache, restricting the bride to wear other than white Sari, refusal to share the well water, restricting untouchable to pass in front of a higher caste, honor-killing high caste girl married low caste or the girl marrying high caste boy. Heaping innumerable indignities on the low Caste, even Mahatma supported the Caste System. Untoucability is denial of Human Status, Elephants denying Ants to crawl on the ground.

Mahatma Gandhi said that untouchables enduring the servitude of the high Castes in silent

ou may think that you are at your wits end and your God has closed His promised door. But dear, you are wrong in fair and square.

For me, you are of God and not of people.(Psalm 82:6).Your heart and mind are covered by God’s blood. You are under the anointing of Luke 4:18 and Jer 1:10.So why drinking, blaming and cursing God? Our only foolish thinking is that-we bind ourselves to tearful past. That is why our future promised land becomes flop and distressing. My ideas let us not blame God or our parents.

Our God who is sitting on right side is still for us. (Heb 1:13 ,Luk 20:43 and Psalm 110:1).

He will use us though we may be in fire. (Daniel 3:17-18).

Biblically, you are born to put problems and pain under your feats. (Rom 16:20). You will also throw away spirits of prostitute Zazbel, blood thirsty Absalom (2 king 9:33) and greedy Pharoah from your side.

Today Christan are lamenting and giving up due to un-patient, money problems, small tension and laziness. The words - boldly praying with fire

Other times one gets delayed due to very slow vehicular movement. In our modern fast paced life time is of immense.’ Time is money’ is the modern day mantra. A lot business people reside in Dimapur. This town is actually the commercial heartbeat of Nagaland state the lack of good roads is an embarrassment for its image. Out of state investors could be deterred from establishing their commercial ventures in Dimapur because our road conditions show our negligence and lack of personal responsibility.

Therefore for a growth and progress good roads are a necessity. A person has to walk on the sides of a road and when two or three vehicles from the opposite directions come it is quite difficult for a pedestrian to give way to the vehicles.

Gutters on the sides of the streets are common and they emit a foul smell. Mosquitoes breed in the open gutters and pose a danger to the people’s health. In the middle of the road there may be a pothole where water may be stagnant, and to avoid the pothole, a car going straight may suddenly swerve to the left or to the right. The vehicle coming behind may dash on it resulting in an accident.

Olotoli A Yeptho, Intern

ect of virtually remoulding Indian society by obliterating all the supposed ignominy which the country is said to have suffered during the 1,200 years of “slavery” under Muslim and British rule.

Not surprisingly, the 60-odd years of Congress rule have been included in this period of “alien” governance.

Hence, the rewriting of history textbooks and the packing of autonomous academic institutions with people in tune with the ruling party’s thinking. These have been accompanied by the veneration of the cow and the targeting of “suspected” beef-eaters.

It is this imposition of the saffron writ which made former Vice President Hamid Ansari say that the Muslims were living in fear and led to protests by writers, historians, film makers and others within the first 12 months of Modi’s rule who returned the awards which they had once won.

Instead of analysing why so many distinguished people were expressing their disquiet, the government and the BJP chose to dismiss them as “manufactured protests”, in Arun Jaitley’s words, and the dissatisfaction of a section which has lost the privileges which it had enjoyed under the previous dispensation.

Evidently, the BJP believed that it was on the right track -- in fact, the protests may have reinforced this self-perception -- and that there was no need for a rethink.

Little wonder that the government took no notice of the two open letters written to it by groups of retired civil servants and a third by more than 600 academics, including those in the US, Britain and Australia. While the bureaucrats expressed distress at the decline of “secular, democratic and liberal values”, the educationists regretted that not enough was being done for the vulnerable groups.

There is little doubt that the government has taken a number of initiatives to reach out to these groups. In a way, these “small” measures have mitigated to some extent the effects of the faltering on the macroeconomic front.

Among these measures is the Jan Dhan Yojana relating to small savings by ordinary people via a large number of bank accounts.

However, although nearly all the households are now said to have access to banks, the number of people with inactive accounts is embarrassingly high.

It is the same with cooking gas connections, where consumption has not kept pact with the higher number of households with such facilities. There have been similar shortfalls on the cleanliness (Swachh Bharat) and electrification programmes as well.

According to official figures, 72.6 million household toilets have been built since 2014 and there are now 366,000 defecation-free

villages. But the absence of independent verification of these claims has led to the World Bank withholding a $1.5 billion loan for these rural programmes.

Similarly, the official assertion about cent per cent electrification of the country has generally been taken with a pinch of salt since government data shows that there are still 31 million households without power and that the percentage reaches 60 in UP, Jharkhand and Assam.

It is on the highways’ front that visible progress has been made with the raising of the construction target to 45 km per day from 27 km.

The employment potential of such infrastructure projects is also high. Since 100 per cent foreign investment is allowed in this sector, an estimated $82 billion is expected for it in the next four years.

But all these initiatives should really have been an add-on to an atmosphere of economic buoyancy which is absent. This has been noted by a pro-Modi economist, who has said that the people are yet to see their lives improve materially. Unless this perception changes with, say, an implementation of the Modicare programme of medical insurance in the next few months, the government will not be able to look forward to next year’s general election with high hopes.

The ‘If’ and ‘Cannot’ of Naga Nationalism

I

f “revelation” was just a creation of man pretending to be God; and if human history was just a fairy tale of monkeys evolving into man; Then why should I waste my time defending my unique history and my lands? After all, when another country is ready to pay for my development and my sustenance, why should I shed my blood and my tears fighting such a benevolent country?

If Law and justice were the regional propriety of a multicultural world, and there was no universal law proceeding from the mouth of God for all of creation; then I would also keep mouth shut and allow lawlessness to reign on earth. After all, why should I endanger my own life and that of my family, speaking for justice and peace in my corner of the world?

If human history was a product of chance and everything in it was relative, then why should I talk about my absolute political and geographical rights in a global

world that has no political or geographical boundaries? After all, if I am entitled to a global citizenship passport that will allow me to settle down in any country of my choice, then why should I be fighting for a tiny portion of land called My Nagaland?

BUT because all the above presumptions are untrue to reality as vindicated by history,

I cannot lay down my sword and allow the occupier of my country to rule me and my kith and kin with her military might and the most unjust laws under heaven. After all, if I were to give my consent for such evil to reign in my land, then I would be a collaborator with the Devil and betray my humanity as well as my fatherhood.

Sir,

Exorbitant educational institution’s fee

Education is for all, fees charged in educational institutions are too high. Not every student obtains the opportunity to be admitted in Government institutions due to less number of government institutions. Therefore, if the fees charged are reduced and keep a balance affordable for both rich and poor, the hardship of the poor would be addressed; and there will be equal opportunities for both the poor and rich.

Probe panel releases Jayalalithaa’s last voice

C h e n na i , M ay 2 6 (AGENCIES): A recording of late chief minister Jayalalithaa’s voice, telling a doctor that her blood pressure of 140/80 was normal for her, has been made available to the media by the commission probing her death.

When a duty doctor tells Jayalalithaa her blood pressure was “high, it reads 140 (systolic),” she asks “by”, meaning what was the diastolic value.

To this, the doctor replies “140/80,” and she replies “its okay for me... normal.”

At the beginning of the 1.07 minute audio, which has beep sounds of the monitors, she coughs and says she can hear a sound, (to denote her breathing difficulty) and it was similar to whistles made by fans in cinema houses.

She also tells a man, identified as Dr KS Sivakumar, her physician, that if it was not possible (to download a mobile application to record her wheezing) “leave it.”

In another 33-second audio, which is connected to the other recording, Dr Sivakumar tells Jayalalithaa, who is breathing

J Jayalalithaa

heavily, that he is recording the wheezing and it was not “very intense now.”

Coughing, she tells him “when it (wheezing) was there, I told you, you said it (application) could not be taken (downloaded).”

The doctor says in between that he has downloaded the application (app/to record her wheezing).

Her last voice recordings were made available by the Justice A Arumughaswamy Commission of Inquiry on Saturday, probing the circumstances leading to the hospitalisation and the subsequent death of the late leader in 2016.

Giving a background to the recordings, counsel for Jayalalithaa’s aide VK Sasikala, N Raja Senthoor Pandian,said that on January 8, 2018,Dr Sivakumar had told the Commission in his deposition that he

had recorded Jayalalithaa’s voice on the night of September 27 2016 at Apollo Hospital.

The voice recording was done by Sivakumar, when the late leader had “wheezing (breathing difficulty) problem.”

This was done, according to Sivakumar’s deposition, to send the late Chief Minister’s voice to a specialist doctor for further evaluation.

“Today, when Dr Sivakumar (questioned by the panel as its witness) appeared before the Commission for deposition, he submitted madam’s voice recording during cross examination by me and it was marked as an exhibit,” Pandian told PTI. After her admission to Apollo Hospital on September 22 2016, she had a wheezing problem on September 27, he said, quoting Sivakumar’s deposition.

According to Sivakumar’s deposition today, after a tracheostomy procedure in October 2016, Jayalalithaa also identified pictures of some deities and spoke a few words with difficulty. Handwritten by Jayalalithaa in green ink,the chart showed she

was conscious of her health and food, according to the deposition.

The chart, that also records her weight (106.9 kg) begins with “lotus water” at 4.55 AM and breakfast of one idli, four slices of bread, tender coconut water of 230 ml and 400 ml of coffee between 5.05 AM and 5.35 AM. For lunch (2pm to 2.35pm), she had written basmati rice 1 1/2 cups, one cup yoghurt and musk melon 1/2 bowl.

Her dinner (6.30pm to 7.15pm) comprised walnut and dry fruits (1/2 cup), idli or upma one cup, one dosai, two slices of bread, milk 200 ml and anti diabetic tablets.

Coffee (200 ml) in the evening (5.45pm) and green tea (200 ml) in the mornings were part of her schedule (5.45am).

Hitting out at the timing of the release of such information, leader of the opposition in the assembly and DMK working president MK Stalin alleged that the Commission is being used to divert people’s attention from the Tuticorin police firing as people were angry at the government over it.

All arrangements made for Punjab bypoll: EC Chandigarh, May 26 (IANS): With campaigning coming to an end, all arrangement are in place for the smooth conduct of the May 28 bypoll to the Shahkot assembly seat, Punjab Chief Electoral Officer S. Karuna Raju said on Saturday.

He told media that the Election Commission have been completed all the arrangements in Shahkot, where 1,72,676 voters will decide the fate of 12 candidates in this constituency.

While the main contest is between the ruling Congress and opposition Shiromani Akali Dal, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has made it a three-cornered contest by fielding its candidate.

Over 1,000 security personnel, including Punjab Police and Border Security Force (BSF), will stand guard on polling day.

The polling will be allowed between 7 am to 6 pm. The seat fell vacant following the death of sitting Akali Dal legislator Ajit Singh Kohar in February this year. Kohar, a former minister, was elected five times from this seat.

Congress candidate H.S. Laddi had lost to Kohar by nearly 5,000 votes in the assembly elections in February last year.

Ready for tie-ups if given fair share of seats, says Mayawati

Lucknow, May 26 (AGENCIES): In a strategic move ahead of 2019 Lok Sabha election, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati on Saturday declared that her party was open to alliance with any political party if it was given respectable seats in the pre-poll pact. “ … o t h e r w i s e, t h e BSP will contest the election on its own strength,” said Mayawati. She also announced to remove her brother Anand Kumar from the post of the national vice president to send a message

Mayawati

to the cadre that she was not promoting dynasty in the party. Promotion of Kumar as BSP vice president a year back had led to the resentment in the party and senior leaders such as Naseemuddin Siddiqui, Swami Prasad Maurya, Indrajit Saroj and

Jugul Kishore had quit the BSP one after the other. To quell any other such revolt, Mayawati announced that family members of the national president will be not appointed office-bearer in the party organisation. To check infighting for the top post among senior leaders, Mayawati said, she will be active in politics for another 20-22 years and no one will be projected as her successor. “Rather than dreaming for the top post the leaders should use their energy in strengthening the party,” she said.

Nagaland joins ‘Himalayan Cleanup Campaign’ (From p-1) MON: Joining the 12 other mountain states in the Himalayan Clean Up campaign, Mon town Saturday conducted cleanliness drive from private station, Mon.

New Delhi, May 26 (PTI): Gold prices drifted lower by Rs 105 to Rs 32,370 per 10 grams at the bullion market Saturday, halting its four-day rising streak on the back of weak global cues amid easing demand from local jewellers at prevailing higher levels.

Silver followed suit and dropped by Rs 350 to Rs 41,200 per kg backed by reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

Traders said besides weak trend overseas, as strength in dollar against other currencies overseas eroded the appeal of the precious metal as a safe-haven investment, fall in demand from local jewellers and retailers at existing higher levels at domestic spot market weighed on the prices.

Gold prices fell 0.22 per cent to USD 1,301.20 an ounce and silver by 0.99 per cent to USD 16.47 an ounce in New York in yesterday’s trade.

The new ITR forms mandate the salaried class assesses to provide their salary breakup, and businessmen their GST number and turnover.

The ITR-1 called ‘Sahaj’ is largely used by the salaried class of taxpayers with income up to Rs 50 lakh from salary, one house property only and additional income such as interest earned from fixed deposits and recurring deposits.

This time, the ITR-1 form seeks an assessee’s details in separate fields such as allowances not exempt, profit in lieu of salary and value of prerequisites among others. This form was used by three crore taxpayers during the last financial year.

NEW DELHI, May 26 (PTI): India has the third largest number of billionaires in the world, and in the next decade, as many as 238 additional ultra high net worth individuals will join this elite club, says a report.

Cyclone Mekunu: 10 killed, 40 missing in Oman, Yemen

Debris litter a beach after Cyclone Mekunu in Salalah, Oman on Saturday. (AP/PTI)

S A L A L A H , M ay 2 6 (Agencies): Cyclone Mekunu blew into the Arabian Peninsula early Saturday, drenching arid Oman and Yemen with rain, cutting off power lines and leaving at least ten dead and 40 missing, officials said.

Portions of Salalah, Oman’s third-largest city, lost electricity as the cyclone made landfall. The Arabian Sea angrily churned Saturday morning, sending mounds of sea foam into the air. The waves ate into one tourist beach, pulling hunks of it away and toppling thatch umbrellas cemented into the sand.

As Mekunu barreled overhead, the eye of the storm provided a moment’s respite. At one luxury hotel, which already had evacu-

ated its guests, workers sat down early for a traditional “suhoor,” a meal Muslims eat before sunrise during the holy fasting month of Ramadan. They laughed and shared plates by flashlight in a darkened ballroom, the cyclone’s wind a dull roar behind their clatter.

At least ten people, including a 12-year-old girl, died in Oman and Yemen with 40 others missing from the Yemeni island of Socotra, which earlier took the storm’s brunt, police said. Yemenis, Indians and Sudanese were among those missing on the Arabian Sea isle and officials feared some may be dead.

Capt. Tarek al-Shanfari, of the Royal Oman Police’s public relations department, said Satur-

day the first death was a 12-year-old girl who was hit in the head by a door flung open by the wind.

He said an Asian labourer died in a flooded valley and an Omani national in a 4x4 died when his vehicle was swept away. Three others in the vehicle were rescued. Five Yemenis and two Indian sailors were confirmed dead when Mekunu hit Socotra island on Thursday, causing heavy damage, Yemen’s fisheries minister Fahad Kafin said.

Rescue teams on Friday found alive four Indian sailors who had been declared missing. The search is ongoing for eight Indian sailors who went missing when the cyclone hit Socotra’s port.

Death toll in Sri Lanka monsoon rains hits 19 Colombo, May 26 (IANS): The death toll in Sri Lanka monsoon rains reached 19 on Saturday while over 128,000 people have been affected, the country’s Disaster Management Centre (DMC) said.

DMC Spokesperson Pradeep Kodippili said two people were reported missing in the south while over 55,000 people had been evacuated to safer areas, Xinhua news agency reported.

With the threat of more rains in the coming days, Kodippili said those living in low areas, close to rivers and lakes were advised to evacuate and the police along with tri forces had been deployed in the affected districts for relief assistance.

Till date, over 4,000 houses, mainly in the south and north central Sri Lanka have been fully or partially damaged. Kodippili also warned the naval and fishing communities to be vigilant as the wind speed could increase up to 60 to 70 km per hour.

The Meteorological Department said that “heavy falls above 100 millimetres can be expected at some places in Sabaragamuwa, Western, Central and North-Western provinces and in Galle and Matara districts”.

Over 200 people were killed and 78 people went missing when the monsoons caused severe floods and landslides across Sri Lanka in 2017.

Modi not an advocate of peace talks: Musharraf

ISLAMABAD, May 26 (PTI): Pakistan and India were on the path of peace and reconciliation under his regime, former Pakistani dictator Pervez Musharraf has said while claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was not an “advocate of peace talks”.

The former president and chief of All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) in an interview with Voice of America claimed that when he was in power, India and Pakistan were on the “path of reconciliation”, but that is not the case anymore, the Express Tribune reported.

“At the time, I spoke to both the prime ministers, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh, they were both from different political parties but we wanted

Pervez Musharraf

to move forward from the disputes,” he said.

The 74-year-old retired general, who is facing high treason charges, has been living in Dubai since last year when he was allowed to leave Pakistan for medical treatment.

Musharraf claimed that a four-point initiation of peace was strategised by the former president and was put in implementation by the leadership of both

countries.

The four points of contention included Siachen and Kashmir as well, he said.

“We were working on my strategy because both sides wanted to have peace.

This is not the case anymore. They want to undo us,” he claimed.

“Incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants to enforce supremacy in India and isn’t an advocate of peace talks,” he alleged.

He alleged that there exists an “inherent bias” towards India’s treatment as both possess nuclear arms, but no questions are raised on India.

“Nobody asks India to control their assets. Pakistan became a nuclear state

North and South Korea’s leaders meet inside DMZ

Seoul, May 26 (AFP): South Korea said President Moon Jae-in met with North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un Saturday inside the Demilitarised Zone dividing the two nations, a day after US President Donald Trump said his summit with Pyongyang could still go ahead.

The Blue House, South Korea’s presidential office, said the two leaders held talks for two hours in the truce village of Panmunjom, where they had met last month and made a declaration vowing to improve ties.

“They exchanged views and discussed ways to implement the Panmunjom Declaration and to ensure a successful US North Korea summit,” the Blue House said in a statement, adding

Moon would make a personal statement tomorrow morning.

On Thursday Trump cancelled his upcoming meeting with Kim which had been due to take place in Singapore on June 12 --

only to reverse course a day later and say it could still go ahead after productive talks were held with the North Korean officials.

which had brokered a remarkable detente between Washington and Pyongyang after months of Kim and Trump trading insults and threats of war.

Pictures released by the Blue House showed Moon shaking hands with both Kim and his sister Kim Yo Jong, who has played a major public role in recent talks with the South, including leading a delegation across the border during February’s Winter Olympics. The meeeting between Moon and Kim took place in a grand building on the North Korean side of Panmunjom, a surreal and heavily fortified village that lies between the two countries and marks the spot where the armistice ending the Korean War in 1953 was signed.

because India posed an undeniable existential threat,” he said.

“The US should have stopped them, we have been loyal to them throughout,” he said.

He said that Pak-US relations have suffered quite a blow and are currently at “the lowest ebb”.

Answering a question as to why there are strenuous relations between the two countries, Musharraf said, “US has supported India very openly from the Cold War era. And now again, the US is aligning itself with India against Pakistan, this affects us directly. We would like the UN to examine India’s role in Afghanistan.

Freeman issues new statement after sexual harassment accusations

M

organ Freeman has issued a new statement in response to numerous sexual harassment allegations against him.

Freeman has been accused of harrassment and inappropriate behaviour by eight different women, according to CNN. One alleged victim worked as a production assistant on the set of 2017’s Going In Style and said she was subjected to months of harassment at the hands of Freeman, including unwanted touching and comments about her figure.

Freeman released a shorter statement on Thursday (May 24), saying: “Anyone who knows me or has worked with me knows I am not someone who would intentionally offend or knowingly make anyone feel uneasy. I apologise to anyone who felt uncomfortable or disrespected – that was never my intent.”

The actor has now released a longer statement, through his publicist Stan Rosenfield. “I am devastated that 80 years of my life is at risk of being undermined, in the blink of an eye, by Thursday’s media reports,” the statement begins.

Tali Angh releases music video ‘City of Lights’

O

ne of the most loved musicians in Nagaland, Tali Angh, has released a music video titled, ‘City of Lights’ via his YouTube channel ‘Tali Angh Music’.

Fans and music lovers had been eagerly waiting for the release of the video after an 18-secondslong teaser of the video was shared among music communities and music lovers.

With scenes of a beautiful night view of Ko-

hima town on the backdrop, the video has renowned designer Bambi Kevichüsa as the leading protagonist on a jour ney in search of rest.

The music video portrays the soul searching, the hunger for rest and peace of mind human beings long for in the midst of all the commotions that surround them.

The song is written by Tali Angh and recorded at Jam Studio 11 while the audio was mixed and mastered by renowned guitarist Nash Longkumer. Makeup artist for the video was Mendensenla.

Besides being a composer and performer, Tali, is also a worship leader in the Sinai ministry.

He had been touring extensively to all the parts of the state last year besides making special appearances at college fests and camps.

In a note that accompanied the link to the video, Tali said, “I pray that you

will encounter love, hope, joy and peace through this song. This is your song and this is my song. Live your song! Keep shining brighter!”

Fans wrote words of affection and love for the song in the comment section on YouTube.

A fan wrote: “This is the best song ever (hearts), I can go on listening to it for more than a thousand times.”

Another wrote: “Always been my fav, loving the song all the more!! So blessed.”

While one wrote: “Everything about htis man is so genuine. Brilliant improvisation and concept. God bless you brother Tali.”

Abandoned by children, Weinstein released on $1m bail over rape and abuse charges famed actress dies in hospital

F

akeezah’-fame actor Geeta Kapoor, who was allegedly abandoned by her children last year, died in an old age home in Andheri here on Saturday.

She was 57.

Her death was confirmed by filmmaker Ashoke Pandit.

In April 2017, the yesteryear actor’s son Raja, had brought her to SRV Hospital in suburban Goregaon to treat her fluctuating blood pressure. He apparently left the hospital on the pretext of withdrawing money from an ATM and never returned.

Raja is said to be a choreographer and her daughter, Pooja, is an airhostess.

Pandit took to twitter to express his grief over Kapoor’s demise.

“Standing besides the dead body of Actress #GeetaKapoor 57 who was abandoned by her kids in #SRVHospital a year back breathed her last at a suburban Old age home today morning. We tried our best

to keep her healthy but her wait for her Son&daughter made her weaker day by day. #RIP,” he tweeted.

Talking to PTI, Pandit said, “She died a natural death around 9 am in the old age home Jeevan Asha, where she had been since the last year. She was getting weak and was on a liquid diet.”

“She died in the hope that her son, Raja, will come one day to take her from the old age home...and that is more tragic,” Pandit told PTI. Pandit and filmmaker Ramesh Taurani had then paid the hospital bills of Kapoor and cared for her.

Kapoor had worked in over a hundred films, including “Pakeezah” and “Razia Sultan”.

Pandit says, her mortal remains will be kept at Cooper Hospital for two days for her family to come.

“But if they don’t come, the funeral will be performed on Monday,” he said.

More than 70 women have accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct although the charges relate to only two of them. Some allegations date back decades.

New York City police said on Friday that Weinstein had been charged with rape, sex abuse, sexual misconduct and a criminal sex act. The charges related to incidents involving two women, who were not identified.

He had arrived at a police station in lower Manhattan during the morning, carrying three books. After having his mugshot and fingerprints taken, he was led out in handcuffs and taken to court.

In the brief court appearance, prosecutor Joan Illuzzi said the former studio boss had “used his position, money and power to lure young women into situations where he was able to violate them sexually”.

Witnesses say Weinstein appeared pale and stared into space while prosecutors outlined the

Red Bull’s hopes of locking out the front row of the starting grid disappeared before qualifying had even started after the gearbox on Max Verstappen’s car was changed following a crash in final practice.

That incurred a five place grid drop, which became academic when the 20-year-old Dutch driver failed to emerge for even one timed lap.

Hamilton leads Vet-

tel by 17 points after five rounds of the 21-race championship, and the Briton will have been boosted by his car’s performance after a disappointing showing in Monaco last year.

Ricciardo’s pole was his second in three years in the principality, and second of his career, with the Australian fastest in 2016 qualifying but losing out in the race to Hamilton.

“I gave it everything I could. I was up a little bit on the last lap but wasn’t able to hold onto it,” said Hamilton, chasing a hattrick of wins on Sunday after Azerbaijan and Spain.

“It’s still a long race ahead of us tomorrow. I don’t think Red Bull have tried the other tyres yet so it will be interesting to see how we all go.”
