High-intensity cyclone to reach Gujarat coast by May 18 : IMD Warm ocean to help rapid intensification of the cyclone The possible track movement of the system will be clear and predictable with certain surety by the meteorologists only once the system turns into a depression. Agency News: Pune The India Meteorological Department (IMD) Thursday has said that a ‘high-intensity’ cyclone, that is brewing in the Arabian Sea, is headed towards south Gujarat-Pakistan and will reach their coasts around May 18.If realised, this will be the first cyclone to form in 2021 over the North Indian Ocean region. The warm ocean conditions prevailing during May often favour cyclogenesis in this region. Once the system develops as a cyclone, it will acquire the name Tauktae given by Myanmar. On Thursday morning, a low-pressure system developed in the southeast Arabian Sea and adjoining

“Trial Data Clear, Transparent...”: Russian Scientists Defend Sputnik V Russian scientists leading clinical studies for the Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine have responded to claims of “serious concerns over interim results from phase 3 trials” by stressing their data meets “clear and transparent standards... considered sufficient for regulatory review and approvals”.Concerns over phase 3 studies - specifically data discrepancies, trial protocols, and the accuracy and quality of data from which conclusions were drawn - were raised by a group of scientists from universities in the United States, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Russia.Their note, which also flags “problematic data in the published phase 1/2 results” was published Wednesday in the ‘online first’ section of international medical.
Lakshadweep area. It is expected to turn into a well-marked lowpressure system by Friday and intensify into a depression by May 15 and lay over the Lakshadweep region. Later, on May 16, the Deep Depression could further strengthen and take birth as a cyclone.“It is very likely to intensify further and move north-northwards towards Gujarat and the adjoining Pakistan coast. It is likely to reach Gujarat coast around the evening on May 18,” IMD said in its statement on Thursday.The current low pressure system will intensify at least by four or more stages within a span of just three days, indicating a cyclone with higher intensity is most likely to develop over the Arabian Sea in
the coming days. The possible track movement of the system will be clear and predictable with certain surety by the meteorologists only once the system turns into a depression. “We are expecting very rapid intensification of the system within a short time. One of the contributory factors is the very high sea surface temperatures that are currently prevailing over the Arabian Sea coupled with ocean thermal energy. It has been found that ocean waters, even upto a depth of 50 metres, are very warm. This, in turn, will supply more energy to the system via evaporational cooling and help rapid intensification,” Sunitha S Devi, senior scientist at the Cyclone Warning Division of IMD
14 govt doctors in UP’s Unnao quit in protest over endless COVID review Agency News: New Delhi Fourteen government doctors in Uttar Pradesh’s Unnao have resigned from their post complaining about the endless COVID reviews. The doctors, who later withdrew their resignation, also said they were being made scapegoats for the surge in cases in the regions. The doctors work at the Community Health Centres and Primary Health Care centres in Unnao. Some of the doctors visited the office
of Unnao’s chief medical officer Dr. Ashutosh Kumar on Wednesday to hand over the letter.The doctors have alleged that they were being punished despite working hard. Unnao’s district magistrate Ravindra Kumar said the matter has been sorted and the concerns of the doctors will be addressed.The doctors had complained that the team was being marked out and despite travelling to far-flung areas to track and isolate COVID patients they were called for review

meetings repeatedly on the same day.The doctors said this was done to ensure that the officials could personally verify if they were working or not. The doctors also said that it was being implied that the COVID was on the rise because they were not working.The doctors also submitted the memorandum alleging that punitive action was being taken against them without any rhyme or reason. Unnao is also the place where some bodies, suspected to be of COVID patients, were found buried in the sand. Local police are also on the lookout for more burials.The bodies were found buried in an area far from the river and an inquiry has been ordered. Earlier dead bodies floating in the Ganga in Uttar Pradesh’s Ghazipur and Bihar’s Buxar were reported.
As the system is expected to traverse between Lakshadweep all the way north to Gujarat, the maximum weather in the form of heavy to extremely heavy rainfall (over 204mm) is expected over Lakshadweep, Kerala and Karnataka between May 14 and 16. “The expected track to be followed indicates a north-northwestward track, as a result of which the rainfall intensity forecast for Goa and south Konkan is light to moderate rainfall,” she said.

She further said, those
in 18-44 age group who have already received appointment and SMS will be vaccinated during these three days (May 1415-16) in Gujarat.

To execute this guideline, vaccination rescheduling needs to be done.
Agency News: New Delhi The World Health Organisation has said that several political and religious gatherings were contributing factors behind the resurgence and acceleration of COVID-19 transmission in India. The WHO said this in the COVID-19 Weekly Epidemiological Report for the week ending May 9 based on a recent risk assessment of the COVID-19 situation in India. In the last week, over 5.5 million cases and over 90,000 deaths were reported across the world. During this period, India accounted for 50 per cent of global cases and 30 per cent of global deaths.

State elections held amid COVID pandemic Despite the surge in cases and deaths due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Election Commission went ahead with the Assembly elections in
five states and by-elections in several others states. During the poll campaigning, political parties and their leaders cared the least about COVID appropriate protocols. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union home minister Amit Shah and other BJP leaders held massive rallies where part supporters were not even wearing mask and maintaining physical distance was out of question. Due to the callousness, the Madras High Court lambasted the poll panel left, right and centre. It went on to say that EC was singularly responsible.

the government order said. In case of cargo carriers, not more than two people will be allowed to travel in those vehicles. “If the carriers are originating from outside Maharashtra, they will be allowed with a negative RTPCR test report issued within 48 hours before the time of entry into the state and will be valid for seven days,” the

The local disaster management authority (DMA) has been asked to ensure Covidappropriate behaviour at rural markets and has been authorized to shut down or impose more restrictions on shops that do not comply. “Personnel engaged in Airport and Port services and needed for movement of cargo related to medicines or equipment needed for Covid management will be allowed to travel in local, mono and metro services,” read the order.
Twitter Inc. has stepped up its pace of acquisitions in recent months after years of languid deal-making, a change that reflects the social network’s stronger financial standing and a renewed effort to speed up the addition of new features.Last week Twitter announced the purchase of news reader service Scroll with a goal of adding the product to an eventual subscription offering for its social network. The deal was Twitter’s sixth announced so far this year, and the seventh since December.While many of Twitter’s transactions have been small and driven by a desire to quickly add more employees or technical expertise, Twitter’s activity this year is markedly different from 2017 and 2018, when the company completed just one public acquisition.
SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Editorial
SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Himanta Biswa Sarma Has Many Challenges To Face Covid After days of speculation, finally, the BJP, which created a new record this time in Assam byreturning to power for the second time consecutively, appointed Himanta Biswa Sarma asthe new chief minister. Many saw this decision coming with the saffron party avoiding todeclare then sitting chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal as the face during the elections. With Sarma assuming charge of the state, a section of political analysts already have startedinterpreting these developments as the “end of BJP giving prominence to Assameseregionalism”. That a tribal sitting chief minister Sonowal had to give up the post for aBrahmin Sarma is seen by this section of analysts as BJP’s open endorsement of Hindutvaand abandonment of Assamese regionalism.But these are lazy arguments — as the saffron party has never been shy about its Hindutvacredentials. It has been playing the Hindutva card by accommodating the local aspirations,the Assamese sentiments. Both Sonowal and Sarma are bumiputras of Assam. Also, thetransition of power was smooth and Sonowal himself was gracious enough to abide by theparty’s decision.Sarma has already been known as a strongman of the BJP in the northeast — after all, hehas been looking at the affairs of the party in the region by being the chairman of the NorthEast Democratic Alliance (NEDA), a conglomeration of non-Congress north-east basedregional parties. It’s a known fact that Sarma joined the BJP in 2015 when the Congressleadership of Assam — and the party high command — ignored his ambitions of becomingthe chief minister after Tarun Gogoi, who was eager to push his own son Gaurav Gogoi forthe post.No one can deny the role of Sarma behind the BJP’s ascension to power in the state for thefirst time in the 2016 assembly polls. Although he wasn’t given the post of the chief minister,Sarma handled many important portfolios, including finance and health, in the state cabinetled by Sonowal. As a health minister, Sarma has got accolades from many corners as underhis guidance the state efficiently fought against the Covid-19 virus during the first wave. Thishappened despite the state lacking a better healthcare system, unlike Kerala.Apart from this, Sarma as a NEDA chairman played a crucial role in forming BJPgovernments in Arunachal Pradesh, Tripura and Manipur — and NDA governments inMeghalaya and Nagaland. In short, he played a significant role in BJP gaining a foothold inthe region — which otherwise in the past had always been known as a Congress bastion. InManipur, his proactiveness of securing the support of non-Congress regional parties afterthe fractured mandate of the 2017 assembly polls even left the Congress party with onlyhollow accusations like “BJP stealing the people’s mandate through money power”! Also, during the heat of anti-CAA agitation, which propelled many political analysts todeclare the "end of BJP's future in the state", Sarma campaigned that a large chunk of illegalimmigrants isn’t protected by the CAA — which will grant citizenship to only 5 lakh BengaliHindus, already living in the state. This campaign worked and helped in reducing the antiCAA anger.So, it was natural for BJP to reward the ambitions of Sarma, who has immensely contributedto the rise of BJP — both in Assam and the northeast. But where does this leave Sonowal,BJP’s first chief minister of Assam? Sarma played many crucial roles but Sonowal, with aclean image and a noncontroversial style of working, has been undoubtedly BJP’s one ofthe most popular leaders in the state. Like Sarma, Sonowal too initially didn’t belong to BJP he was in Assam Gana Parishad (AGP), now a partner of BJP. Sonowal is a known facein the state for playing a crucial role in the Supreme Court’s cancellation of the IllegalMigrants (Determinations by Tribunals) Act of 1983 brought by Indira Gandhi led Congressgovernment the act was perceived in the state as a pro-immigrant one. But Sonowaldidn’t last long in AGP and joined BJP back in 2010 as there were growing displeasuresagainst AGP for abandoning the Assamese sentiments. Sonowal was given the charge ofyouth affairs and sports in the first Narendra Modi government, a reason that Modi has a softcorner for him. He was later projected as a chief minister face during the 2016 assemblypollswhich the party won and he was given the charge to lead the state.The return of BJP to power in Assam is also a mandate on Sonowal’s popularity who withhis non-confrontational style of working made sure that the first BJP government completesits term with a good legacy. Both Sarma and - Kapilkumar M. Hirpara Sonowal are aware.

BJP’s tally in Bengal declines to 75 after two MLAs tender resignation The BJP bagged 77 seats while the Trinamool Congress secured a landslide victory winning 213 of the 292 constituencies that went to polls. Agency News: Kolkata Two BJP MPs who contested and won the Assembly election in Bengal have tendered their resignation to the Speaker. Following the development, the tally of BJP MLAs in the 294-seat West Bengal Assembly has gone down to 75 from the earlier 77.The two MPs—Nishit Pramanik and Jagannath Sarkar— resigned on Wednesday
afternoon on the instructions of the BJP high command. Notably, Pramanik and Sarkar were among the five BJP MPs who were fielded by the saffron party hoping to form the government in Bengal. However, the BJP faced an embarrassing loss in the state elections despite trying its best to woo the voters. Now, the party feels that the two MPs will be more useful in the Parliament rather
than in the state Assembly. BJP MP from Ranaghat Jagannath Sarkar, who won the Santipur Assembly seat, said, “The results in Bengal were not as expected. If the BJP had formed a government, we would have a specific role. Now that is not the case so the party has said we should remain MPs and resign as MLAs. That’s why we are doing it.”The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has mocked the move of BJP
as an attempt to play safe in the Lok Sabha. “They have insulted the people who have voted for them and sent them first to Parliament and then to Assembly,” said senior party leader Sukhendu Shekhar Roy.The
2021 Assembly poll was one of the most heated contests between the BJP and the TMC. While TMC was trying to save its turf, the BJP wanted to snatch power from Mamata Banerjee at any cost. Mega rallies of
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union home minister Amit Shah, BJP national president JP Nadda and top BJP leaders were held despite the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and in clear violation of the COVID-19 guidelines. Not just the BJP, but the TMC, too, violated COVID guidelines. However, it emerged as the clear winner in the polls winning 213 of the 292 seats where elections were held, but Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee lost the Nandigram seat to BJP’s Suvendu Adhikari. Adhikari has been made the Leader of Opposition in the Assembly.

12-16 Week Gap For Covishield Doses, Government Panel Recommends: Report
The Sterlite copper smelter plant was given approval by the then AIADMK government on April 26 at an allparty meeting to produce medical oxygen at its facility for a period of four months at the facility in Tuticorin about 600 kms from Chennai.
This is the second time in three months Covishield dosage intervals have been widened; in March it was increased from 28 days to sixeight weeks “for better results”
Agency News: Chennai Vedanta Ltd owned Sterlite Copper has commenced production of medical oxygen at its facility in Tamil Nadu and the first batch of ‘medical grade oxygen’ was dispatched today, authorities said.The Sterlite copper smelter plant was given approval by the then AIADMK government
on April 26 at an all-party meeting to produce medical oxygen at its facility for a period of four months at the facility in Tuticorin about 600 kms from Chennai. The unit was sealed by the state government in May 2018, days after 13 agitators who were part of a protest against the company over environmental concerns were
killed in police firing during a violent anti-Sterlite stir in the southern district.Recently, Industries Minister Thangam Thennarasu had commented that the production of medical oxygen would commence this week.“One of our oxygen plants has commenced production from May 12. The first tanker carrying 4.8 tonnes
of liquid oxygen is going to Tirunelveli-Tuticorin,” the company said in a statement today. With the company commencing production of medical oxygen, initially it would dispatch two oxygen tankers on a ‘daily basis’ and later it would be ‘scaled up’ by ramping up production. Sterlite said.

In Canada the gap is threefour months. In the meantime, we are making all efforts to increase supply and explore local production options,” he said.This is the second time in three months Covishield dosage intervals have been widened; in March states and UTs were told to increase the gap from 28 days to six-eight weeks “for better results”.At that time the centre also said: “protection was enhanced if the second dose of Covishield was administered between six and eight weeks but not later than that”.The changes prompted a sarcastic swipe from Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, who flagged the ever-widening recommended interval between doses.“First, it was four weeks for the second dose, then six-eight weeks and now we are told 12-16 weeks. Is this because there are not enough stocks of vaccines... or because professional scientific advice says so?” he asked.

Encouraged with the results of West Bengal polls and some ‘setback’ to the ruling BJP in UP panchayat polls, farmer leaders have announced that they would move to Uttar Pradesh to start campaigning against the saffron party soon after the withdrawal of the lockdown. Senior BKU leader Gurnam Singh Chaduni, who was in Chandigarh Wednesday, told that the leaders of Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), have already discussed the plans to campaign in Uttar Pradesh ahead of the Assembly polls
due in 2022.“We have plans to move across UP soon after withdrawal of the lockdown,” said Chaduni, who was in the City Beautiful to boost the morale of supporters, who are building an environment in favour of the agitators for the past several months while standing at the roundabouts. Farmer leaders believe that their campaign against BJP in West Bengal during the Assembly polls “played a significant role in building an environment against the saffron party over the issue of three farm laws”. They also say that it will be an advantage for them to campaign in Uttar
Pradesh as there won’t be any issues of language and distance here while these were big challenges before the farmer leaders in communicating their sentiments to the voters particularly farmers in Bengal. “We already have personal connections in UP apart from geographical closeness,” says Chaduni. The farmer leader insists that the dominance of their agitation.

‘Better not to compromise on continuity’: Aakash Chopra wants Indian opener to be picked ahead of Agarwal for WTC final World Test Championship final: Former cricketer Aakash Chopra is of the opinion that India need to retain the opener in order to maintain consistency. Agency News: New Delhi Former India cricketer has stated that he would like to see pacer Mohammed Shami and opener Shubman Gill in India’s playing XI for the World Test Championship final (WTC) against New Zealand ahead of Mohammed Siraj and Mayank Agarwal, respectively.Right-hander Gill was heavily impressive during India’s 2-1 series
victory against Australia. In 3 matches, he scored 259 runs at an average of 51.80. He was, however, uninspiring during the England series at home, as he only managed to score a paltry 119 runs in four Tests. Moreover, he looked out form in IPL 2021--before the season was postponed due to the Covid-19 crisis in India. In 7 matches, he only scored 133 runs. On the other hand, right-arm pacer Mohammed
Shami is returning to the squad after recovering from a shoulder fracture he sustained during the first Test in Adelaide Down Under. In his absence, Siraj did exceedingly well, picking 13 wickets in 3 matches in Australia and went on to lead the pack. Moreover,

sometimes has to train alone, rather than in his traditional team environment.This makes the mental aspect of the sport even more important, Ouma said. He has pared down the intensity of Cheruiyot’s training, putting more emphasis on the process I said I am not interested in timing,” said Ouma. “I just want to see effort. Show me how you can run, this eases pressure.”He has worked with Cheruiyot more closely on his mental strength to help build his resilience, checking in how he is coping.

ONGC removes marketing margin but refuses to lower gas price
State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) has agreed to do away with charging users a marketing margin on the gas it plans to produce from its KG basin field but refused to lower the minimum rate, according to tender documents. ONGC, India’s top oil and gas producer, last month sought bids for sale of initial 2 million standard cubic meters per day of gas from its KG-DWN-98/2 block (KG-D5).The company asked bidders to quote a rate
linked to prevailing Brent crude oil prices. It fixed the floor or minimum rate at 10.5 per cent of the three-month average Brent crude oil price. On top of it, the firm sought USD 0.20 per million British thermal unit.Potential bidders however opposed the levy of the marketing margin as well as the “high” floor price. Responding to queries raised by bidders, ONGC said the floor price cannot be changed but marketing margin is being dropped. “Change in Reserve Gas Price (floor rate) is not agreed. However, considering
out with my coach and my team and see what we would like to do,” Williams said after losing to Podoroska, a semifinalist at last year’s French Open. “I have been training for months, but it feels definitely different on clay to make that last adjustment.” Williams is preparing for the French Open, which starts at the end of the month. Venus Williams, Serena’s sister, also accepted a wild-card invitation, organizers said. The claycourt event in Parma, which was added to the calendar amid the coronavirus pandemic, starts Sunday.

At the current Brent crude oil price of close to USD 70, the minimum price comes to USD 7.3 per million British thermal unit.This price, however, will be subject to the ceiling or cap fixed by the government for deepsea fields every six months. The cap for six months beginning April 1 is USD 3.62 per mmBtu.This

Shares of airline, retail and hospitality firms, which have stagnated since the beginning of the year, have perked up recently, as investors expect a rebound in their fortunes as more Indians get vaccinated.While these sectors were ravaged by the second Covid wave and new curbs in many states, analysts said hopes are rising as cases show signs of decline.A faster pace of vaccination will help improve consumer confidence, they said. “Aviation, retail and hospitality are expected to do well once things normalise, and we expect the sectors to witness revenge buying.
