Lotus blooming from Gangotri to Gangasagar: PM Modi on BJP's assembly election win
New Delhi, May 04: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the lotus is now blooming from Gangotri to Gangasagar with the BJP's historic victory in West Bengal and asked all parties to work for change, not revenge, and ensure that the state's future trumps over fear. Addressing BJP workers at the party headquarters after the win in assembly elections in West Bengal, Assam and Puducherry, Modi said it was a special day in many ways as it heralds a bright future for the country. It is a day of trust in the great democracy of India, trust in the politics of performance, trust in the resolve of stability, trust in the spirit of Ek Bharat, Shrestha Bharat. I bow before the people of West Bengal, Assam, Puducherry, Tamil Nadu and Keralam, he said at the victory celebration event where BJP President Nitin Nabin, Union ministers Amit Shah and Rajnath Singh, among others, were present. Modi said on November 14 last year, when the Bihar election results came in, he told the BJP workers from this very spot that the Ganga flows onward from Bihar all the way to Ganga Sagar (in West Bengal). And today, with victory in West Bengal, from Gangotri (Uttarakhand) to Ganga Sagar (West Bengal), it is nothing but the lotus in full bloom. Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and West Bengal today, in these states surrounding Mother Ganga, there are BJP-NDA governments, he said. Democracy, not fear, won in this festival of democracy in West Bengal, Modi said. When the BJP has won in Bengal, there should be talk of 'badlav' (change) not 'badla' (revenge), 'bhavishya' (future) not 'bhay' (fear), he said. The Prime Minister said winning and losing are a natural part of democracy and politics, but the people of the five states have shown the world why the country is the mother of democracy. Democracy is not just a system for us; it is the river of traditions in our veins. Today, not only has India's democracy triumphed, but India's Constitution has also triumphed. Our constitutional institutions have triumphed; our democratic processes have triumphed, he said. Modi said the nearly 93 per cent voter turnout in West Bengal has been historic in itself, and new records of voting have also been set in Assam, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Kerala. He said women's participation in this election has been exceptionally high and this is emerging as the brightest picture of Indian democracy. Today is a historic day, unprecedented. When years of penance transform into attainment, the joy that appears on the face, that joy today I am seeing on the faces of BJP workers across the country, he said. The Prime Minister also congratulated the Election Commission, all its employees, all the personnel involved in the voting process, especially the security forces, for the successful conduct of the assembly elections. History will always remember your contribution to maintaining the dignity of India's democracy, he said.

Millions of salutations to the people of Bengal...This is the victory of trust in Shri @narendramodi ji over the TMC's 'fear'. For every BJP worker like me, this is a moment of pride that from the source of Mother Ganga in Gangotri to Gangasagar, today the BJP's saffron flag is proudly waving everywhere, the Home Minister said. He described the BJP's historic victory in Bengal as the outcome of the sacrifices, struggles, and martyrdom of countless workers. It is a triumph of the patience of those families who, even while enduring violence, never abandoned the saffron flag. In this arduous journey of the BJP from zero to a resounding majority today, I bow to all those workers who offered their lives, endured violence, suffered tortures, and yet never wavered from the path of ideologyand to their families. The people of Bengal have paid tribute to all those martyred BJP workers through this resounding majority, he said.

IPL 2026: We Play Every Match To Win, But Relaxed Mode Is Over, Says Munaf Patel
Chennai Super Kings: Delhi Capitals bowling coach Munaf Patel stressed that while every game is played with the intent to win, the side has moved past its relaxed mode and is now firmly focused on maintaining the winning momentum if they are to enter the IPL 2026 playoffs. Both DC and Chennai Super Kings, their opponents in Tuesdays clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, are at eight points. But DC are at seventh spot due to their net run rate being in negative. With both teams in a similar situation, it will be a crucial game for DC to prove that their campaign revival is for real after chasing down 226 against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur. You don't have any other option but to win the match. Obviously, we play every match to win, but now the relaxed mode is over. If you want to qualify, you have to win all the matches. We have won and we have forgotten that. If we keep remembering that, we will lose again. It is better that we forget that and move forward with the momentum of the winning match, said Munaf in the pre-match press conference. DC need a string of consistent performances to climb further in the points table, but their campaign has been hampered by just one victory at home this season. With the tournament entering its business end and surfaces expected to get slower, Munaf expressed full confidence in his premier spin twins, Kuldeep Yadav and skipper Axar Patel, to exploit the conditions. Our job is to motivate them. We tell them about their mistakes and make them improve. Once you are on the ground, my and Hemangs say is over as once you are on the field, the players have to do it all. You can motivate them as much as you want. But until they are motivated, or they can't bowl on their strength, or deliver as per the batters weakness, you can't do anything. Confidence always comes from winning. I always believe that you can't give confidence by losing. You are talking about slow wickets - the spinners who play in the T20 World Cup, Kuldeep and Axar, they are there anyway. There is no question that they won't play because we have one of the best spin bowling units. We don't have a reason to complain about slow wickets. If the wickets are slow, it is better for us because we have top spinners and it will benefit us. At the same time, Munaf also suggested that the pitches, which have seen batters power their way to make 200-plus scores, may not be as sluggish as many expect. If it slows down, it's very good for us. I said earlier that our spinners are one of the best in the tournament. But I feel that the wickets won't be as slow as we think and they used to be before because you get time. If you get 5 days and go somewhere else to play, its fine. If you get a 4-day break, then 4-5 days is enough to make a wicket unless and until the weather changes - if it rains, the wicket is covered, then it can slow down. Otherwise, I don't think that the wickets will be as slow as we think they will be. They won't be that slow I mean, they can be 20 percent, but not 50 percent. It can be absolutely because the wickets are not as slow as we think they will be. But it's not happening as you see, we just played a match in Rajasthan and we chased 226. So I believe that there will be 200 runs made in games by batters. On the tactical front, Munaf dismissed the notion of bowlers blindly imitating successful trends like Krunal Pandya bowling bouncers or slinging deliveries at will or CSK pacer Anshul Kamboj getting immense success by bowling from round the wicket, especially in death overs. They won't be that slow I mean, they can be 20 percent, but not 50 percent. It can be absolutely because the wickets are not as slow as we think they will be. But it's not happening as you see, we just played a match in Rajasthan and we chased 226. So I believe that there will be 200 runs made in games by batters. Also Read: Live Cricket Score For example, you can add a slower ball, you can add a knuckle ball, you can add a bouncer. You can add them. But it's not like you have to go out of the box and do the same thing that if one is successful, everyone will be successful. It's not like that and this is what I think. Article Source: IANS

Max Super Speciality Hospital: Delhi Capitals bowling coach Munaf Patel confirmed that fast bowler Lungi Ngidi has cleared the mandatory concussion standdown period and is 100 percent fit to return to action ahead of the sides crucial clash against five-time champions Chennai Super Kings, to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday evening. Ngidi suffered an unfortunate head injury while fielding in the third over of DCs afternoon game against Punjab Kings on April 25 and was rushed to BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital, Pusa Road, in an ambulance via a green corridor created by Delhi Police. Under ICC regulations, a mandatory sevenday standdown applies to players diagnosed with concussion. Even though IPL 2026 Playing Conditions did not spell it out explicitly, Ngidi had to serve that rest period after being discharged from the hospital on the same evening, with scans revealing no major concerns. All bowlers are fit and Lungi is 100 percent fit because he didn't play two games because of the six-day criteria. But he's a hundred percent fit now, said Munaf in the pre-match press conference on Monday. Though Kyle Jamieson did very well to dismiss Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in Jaipur, where DC won by six wickets, he did go for runs. DC would want for Ngidi to partner with left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc as he has been prolific with his repertoire of slower balls, especially in the death overs. Starc marked his return to DC with the prized wicket of the inform Yashasvi Jaiswal and his inclusion has proved to be a timely boost, especially with the side eyeing a spot in the playoffs. The left-arm pacer will be eyeing to take out Ruturaj Gaikwad and Sanju Samson to set the tone up front while remaining a potent threat in the death overs. Since his IPL comeback in 2025, Starc has taken 17 wickets in 11 innings at an economy of 10.2, including a best of 5-35. Against CSK, he has six wickets from seven games at an economy rate of 7.2. More importantly, DC's results since IPL 2025 are significantly better when Starc clicks he has 14 wickets in wins for them at nine runs per over, compared to just three scalps in losses at an economy rate of 12.5. Absolutely - if a wicket-taker comes in powerplay, your whole plan changes. If a wicket-taker comes in the first six overs, the whole scenario changes. As you can see, scores of 230 and 240 are being chased down because one is unable to pick wickets in power-play. But when your main bowler returns and gets you two wickets in powerplay, it makes a lot of difference. So, bowling in partnerships was somewhere missing for us and now it has been added. Obviously, you get that belief as you have a world-class bowler. You can call him the captain of the bowling unit. He is the main bowler in the fast bowlers. Everyone gets confidence from him, added Munaf. He also admitted that poor returns of Indian pacers Mukesh Kumar and Auqib Nabi meant DC had to revert to going heavy with overseas presence in their bowling attack. Both of our Indian bowlers, Auqib and Mukesh, are new ball bowlers. So, our plan was that we will use both of them because if you use Indian bowlers, you can add foreign players batting. So, that was the plan. But if you don't succeed in the plan, you have to go to plan B. So, we didn't succeed in the plan that we used Indian bowlers and somehow we made a mistake in that. That also meant that David Miller missed out on the clash against RR, while Pathum Nissanka only got his spot back due to an injury to teenaged opener Sahil Parakh. It is difficult to fit in the eleven because there are only four overseas players. There is a reason for that - Sahil was injured and we wanted Pathum to get a chance. We wanted an additional bowler too. So, we played Pathum and we had to play two foreign fast bowlers and you can't let Starc out and Lungi couldn't play at that time. Our plan was that either Pathum or Miller will play. We didn't have another opener because he was injured and so, we went with Pathum. That also meant that David Miller missed out on the clash against RR, while Pathum Nissanka only got his spot back due to an injury to teenaged opener Sahil Parakh. It is difficult to fit in the eleven because there are only four overseas players. There is a reason for that - Sahil was injured and we wanted Pathum to get a chance. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Openers are making 100-150 runs and you are asking us to play Prithvi Shaw. From where should make him play? If the opening partnership is going for 100-250 runs, who should we replace with? We had to change it because Sahil got injured and Pathum has now made 62 runs in last game. So, I don't think we should change it and we won't change it because Sahil is injured. Article Source: IANS

New Delhi, May 04: Actor-turned-politician Thalapathy Vijay has emerged as a major political force in Indian politics, with his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), delivering a strong electoral performance and positioning itself as a key contender in Tamil Nadu. In a dramatic turn of events, TVK dealt a significant blow to the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), long considered a dominant force in the states political landscape. Vijays rapid rise marks a shift from traditional political trajectories seen in leaders like M.G. Ramachandran, J. Jayalalithaa, and N.T. Rama Rao, with his appeal driven largely by mass popularity and a strong youth base. A significant factor behind TVKs surge is the support of Gen Z votersyoung, digital, and politically assertivewho have helped transform fandom into political capital. Initially met with skepticism, Vijays entry into politics has defied expectations, reshaping Tamil Nadus electoral dynamics. The results signal not only anti-incumbency against the DMK government but also a broader demand for political change. Vijays popularity among youth, a campaign focused on governance and corruption-free administration, and his strong connect with first-time voters have contributed to his rise. His film career, backed by a loyal fan base, appears to have translated effectively into political support. This electoral shift marks a significant moment in Tamil Nadu politics, traditionally dominated by the DMK and AIADMK.
MS Dhoni Out Of IPL 2026? Chennai Super Kings Coach Provides Big Update: 'Above My Pay Grade'
MS Dhoni is steadily recovering from a calf injury, but Chennai Super Kings bowling consultant Eric Simons confirmed that he has not travelled with the squad to New Delhi for their upcoming IPL 2026 clash against Delhi Capitals.
IPL 2026: MS Dhoni steadily Improving But Hasnt Travelled To New Delhi, Says Eric Simons
Chennai Super Kings: Veteran wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni is steadily recovering from a calf injury, but Chennai Super Kings bowling consultant Eric Simons confirmed that he has not travelled with the squad to New Delhi for their upcoming IPL 2026 clash against Delhi Capitals, to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. An update on MS Dhoni is way above my pay grade. He is not with us but steadily improving. He will be ready when he is ready and he knows when he is ready to play. No, he hasnt travelled with the team, Simons said in the pre-match press conference. Dhoni hasnt featured in a single game this season, with his last IPL appearance coming against Gujarat Titans on May 25 in the 2025 edition. Five-time champions CSK, meanwhile, sit at sixth place on the points table with four wins from nine games. The equation is straightforward for CSK - they need at least four more victories from their remaining fixtures to stay in the hunt for the playoffs. A positive thing for CSK has been that skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad was among the runs in the past two games via unbeaten knocks of 74 and 67 respectively. Describing Gaikwad as a surgeon in this world of chaos batting, Simons noted that the right-handed opener has found his rhythm again. We have been clear about the leadership group and hes clearly the leader of the team. It was just again a case of when he gets his runs. He has had some tough innings in the sense that we have been in trouble. The wickets have been tough and he has battled through them. I think that is the hallmark of a really quality batsman that he doesn't score runs on good wickets. For me I have always called him a surgeon in this world of chaos batting. He is the kind of guy that gets 50 runs in 22 balls and you haven't noticed him. We are starting to see that part of him again. The leadership has always been there. He has always been the captain. It is good that he is now scoring runs but there was never a doubt that he was going to, elaborated Simons. While the likes of Sanju Samson, Urvil Patel and Kartik Sharma have come to the run-making party, Shivam Dube and Dewald Brevis are yet to hit substantial knocks. Dube has offered glimpses of his hitting power, but has been patchy in consistency while making 150 runs from eight innings at a strike rate of 140. Brevis, meanwhile, is yet to find rhythm in IPL 2026 - managing only 64 runs across four knocks, averaging 16 with a strike rate of 121 after missing initial few matches due to a side strain. Nothing is really ailing them. In this tournament, we have seen top players struggle for a bit before playing a breakout innings. While the likes of Sanju Samson, Urvil Patel and Kartik Sharma have come to the run-making party, Shivam Dube and Dewald Brevis are yet to hit substantial knocks. Dube has offered glimpses of his hitting power, but has been patchy in consistency while making 150 runs from eight innings at a strike rate of 140. Also Read: Live Cricket Score They play in a tough period of the game and you can go out there and try and accelerate the run rates and get out and before you know it two or three innings have gone by. They are both very, very experienced cricketers and very good cricketers with great records. It is just a case of when they come right, added Simons. Article Source: IANS
