Elections in Assam had never been as exciting as it was this time. While it was one of the most peaceful elections in the state in the past three decades or more, old-timers compare it with the 1985 elections, the one that was held within four months of the Assam Accord, one that also saw the newly-formed Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) capture power within just two months of its birth. Looking back, one finds several very close simi-

larities between the 1985 assembly election and the just-concluded one. First and foremost, both were by and large fought on the same issue – of Bangladeshi infiltration. Secondly, the voters were sharply divided on both

occasions, one side out and out against the infiltrators and their alleged protection, the other side – Congress and the breakaway United Minorities Front of Assam (UMFA) splitting the Congress vote-base vertically into

two equal parts. The third most significant aspect common to both was the heavy turn-out of voters; in 1985, the voter turnout was 79.21 per cent, this time it worked out to 84.72 per cent. But then there was one very significant difference between 1985 (and for that matter all previous elections) and 2016; this was the first time that a huge campaign was launched to polarize the voters on religious or communal lines. Muslims of migrant origin did move away from the Congress out of fear of the AGP in 1985, but then that time Bengali Hindus of migrant origin too were with them in the UMFA.

Not licensed to kill: Time to apply the brakes now

The lack of road discipline is a problem with many dimensions in our cities, and the incident of a marketing professional killed by an underage driver of a Mercedes in Delhi is just one aspect of it. People in Delhi have never been known for being disciplined or law-abiding, and nothing exemplifies this better than the manner in which the rules of the road are flouted every day. This malaise pervades all levels of society. However, the Mercedes incident is something very specific to persons of privilege and the sense of class consciousness that seems to come easily to them. The underage boy had supposedly been on a joy ride with his friends, and by allowing him to do so, his father, the owner of the car, not only positioned him on a path of illegal action but also sent him an implied message that such a piece of illegality was par for the course. In such a situation a person of an impressionable age is very likely to get the idea that being in a certain station in society, he is likely to get away with a measure of wrong-doing. Driving a costly vehicle such as a Mercedes can only reinforce such an idea. If the police cannot move against the offender for legal reasons, they should move at least against the father, who has been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder. No leniency should be shown towards him. The legal basis for acting against him can be how he allowed someone who is not legally entitled to a licence drive his vehicle. With growth in affluence, underage driving is becoming very common. Some years ago the incident of a nine-year-old child driving a Ferrari in Kerala created a commotion. But the police are often not able to catch the offender in some cases because there is little to distinguish a person of 18 years and someone who is a few days short of that. This precisely is what happened in the Mercedes case. Also it has been reported that the juvenile had erred several times earlier and yet got away with very little punishment. If the father had been punished then, the tragedy last week could have been avoided. Also the police complain they are not able to act against the juvenile offenders who flaunt their connection with people in powerful positions. Parents must be made to understand that letting underage children poses a grave risk to both the child in question and others. The certainty and severity of punishment for giving killing machines to children can be the only deterrent to this trend. A beginning could be made with the death of Siddharth Sharma.

Agency | New Delhi Have cricketer Virat Kohli and actor Anushka Sharma parted ways? Or are they very much together? Or, as Virat’s tee says: Were they on a break? The cricketer sported a tee recently and speculation started once again regarding the relationship status of the couple that had famously parted ways in January

this year. While neither of them commented on the split, Anushka unfollowed Virat on social media soon after the split. Those in the know said the couple ended their two-year relationship on a bitter note, though no official confirmations were forthcoming. Now with his tee proclaiming, “We were on a break,” Virat has just added fuel

to the fire. It also has a cartoon of Superman and Wonder Woman. Is he hinting that they are back together after a relationship break? If the couple is together again, it will come as a big relief for their fans. The buzz of them getting together again started building up after Virat defended Anushka in the face of trolling after India’s stellar performance at the T20 World Cup. While social media suggested Virat’s excellent form on-field was a result of his split with Anushka, the cricketer himself was upset because of the trolling. He posted on Twitter that Anushka has “always” affected him positively and people should be ashamed of their posts and tweets.

ers are all set to take the franchise forward with its third instalment. Mahesh Bhatt, who had directed the original Aashiqui, has put rumours to rest that Hrithik Roshan and Sonam Kapoor will play the lead couple in Aashiqui 3. In fact, he will be producing Aashiqui 3 along with brother Mukesh Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar. And

Bhatt has roped in his daughter Alia Bhatt and her rumoured boyfriend Sidharth Malhotra for the film. According to a report published in Mumbai Mirror, the real-life couple has been approached to play the lead roles in Aashiqui 3. Malhotra, who will next be seen in Nitya Mehra’s Baar Baar Dekho, was quoted as telling the tabloid, “Scripting is in progress but it should be up and running next year. Aashiqui 2 had lots of love, angst and music. I’m looking forward to more.” Just like the last two films, Aashiqui 3 is also said to be a musical and the Brothers actor revealed that he would be taking singing and guitar lessons to get into the skin of the character.

Be it physical or emotional, taking unnecessary stress can not only give you headache or neck pain but, if left unattended for long, can also trigger elevation in blood sugar levels leading to Type 2 diabetes, health experts have warned. Owing to changes in lifestyle and daily routine, stress is now seen as a reason behind several health hazards, including the rise in diabetes in India. Marked stress causes release of several stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol which, in turn, increase levels of sugar in blood apart from spiking blood pressure and pulse rate. “If stress is consistently high, previously transient sugar elevation becomes persistently high, resulting in diabetes. Similarly, blood pressure elevation becomes elevated constantly. Stress also causes change in eating pattern, resulting in ‘binge eating’, thus increasing weight which may also add to elevation of blood sugar,” Dr. Anoop Misra, Chairman, Fortis C-DOC, said.
