India, Jamaica linked by cricket, friendship: S Jaishankar
Kingston, May 4: Cricket serves as a bridge between India and Jamaica, fostering a relationship written in runs, respect and friendship, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said as he dedicated a digital scoreboard, gifted by New Delhi, to the Caribbean nation. Speaking at the unveiling of the scoreboard at the iconic Sabina Park cricket stadium in the Jamaican capital Kingston on Sunday, Jaishankar highlighted the unifying role of sports, particularly cricket, which he said is followed passionately by over a billion people in India. Sports bring nations together by creating shared experiences and fostering mutual respect. And cricket, in particular, has a special meaning for India and Jamaica, he said. Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness was also present at the event. Sabina Park is the home of the Jamaica cricket team and is the only Test cricket ground in the island nation. Recalling the historic significance of Sabina Park, Jaishankar noted that the ground holds special memories for Indian cricket, including a century by legendary cricketer Rahul Dravid and the start of Virat Kohli's Test career in 2011. Describing these moments as symbolic of the India-Jamaica connection, he said the relationship between the two countries is written in runs, respect and friendship. Jaishankar said the state-of-the-art electronic scoreboard would enhance the viewing experience for cricket lovers in Jamaica and stands as a testament to the enduring cricketing partnership between the two nations. Highlighting Jamaicas rich cricketing legacy, he said the country commands immense respect globally for producing great players such as George Headley, Michael Holding, Courtney Walsh, Chris Gayle and Andrew Richardson. Jamaican cricketers receive enthusiastic support from Indian fans, including in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Jaishankar said. As nations cooperate and compete globally, India and Jamaica will always continue to seek special connections that define our ties, and cricket is very much one of them, he said. Calling the scoreboard a symbol of solidarity, Jaishankar expressed hope that it would witness many memorable innings, including those reflecting the growing friendship between India and Jamaica. May the scoreboard count many great innings to come. Among them, that of India-Jamaica friendship, he said. In a social media post after the unveiling ceremony, Jaishankar noted the absence of cricket legend Gayle at the event, saying he was missed. Cricket has long been a strong cultural bridge between India and Jamaica, which is part of the West Indies cricket team. Jaishankar, in his speech, underlined that despite geographical distance, India and Jamaica share close ties rooted in a common history and aspirations as developing nations of the Global South. We may be geographically some distance apart, but in spirit, in our struggle, in our aspirations, we are indeed very close. Both our nations have come out of a shared history. We are proud developing nations of the Global South today. We have made a place for ourselves in the international community, he said. The minister also recalled India's support to Jamaica during challenging times, including assistance during hurricanes and the COVID-19 pandemic through medicines and vaccines. Jaishankar arrived in Kingston on Saturday evening, marking the first leg of his nine-day tour of Jamaica, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago, aimed at further strengthening India's strategic and cultural ties with the Caribbean nations.

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.

New Delhi, May 04: Congratulating the people of West Bengal on the massive win scripted by the BJP in the assembly polls, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday said the people of Bengal have sent a strong message to infiltrators and their sympathisers, highlighting that parties engaged in the politics of appeasement will not forget this lesson. In a series of posts on X, he remarked that the overwhelming public mandate reflects the people's response to those who create fear, appeasement, and protection to infiltrators. 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.

Shah also affirmed that the BJP will work tirelessly to restore the lost glory of Bengal, a sacred land that has been home to great figures such as Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Swami Vivekananda, Kavi Guru Tagore, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, and Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, while striving to realise the dream of 'Sonar Bangla.'

IPL 2026: Delhi Capitals, Chennai Super Kings aim to stay afloat in playoff race
After nine matches each, both sides have eight points in their kitty, with CSK in sixth position on the basis of a superior net run rate
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
