Third Front PWF. In the run-up to elections, opinion poll-exit poll surveys, news room analysts and `opinion’ makers had predicted a DMK victory. Those who persisted in believing that the AIADMK would prevail were the people who live in the
villages, the auto drivers and tea makers who have no access to Twitter or Whatsapp or any forms of social media. A major factor in these polls was that Tamil Nadu has not forgotten the DMK’s previous corrupt regime (20062011) and the 2G scam.

Political landscape changes in India’s East
Confounding conventional wisdom has been a defining feature of Mamata Banerjee’s political career. Through dogged persistence, bravery and picking the right causes she brilliantly marshalled public protests to trounce the CPI(M)’s party-state apparatus in 2011. But heading for a second term, she did not seem like a runaway winner and noticeably did not exude the optimism we’ve come to expect from her. Trinamool Congress (TMC) cadres were clearly apprehensive, leading analysts to speculate about the possibilities of the Congress-Left alliance owing to the alienation caused by TMC cadres’ strong arm-tactics and intimidation. In the end, she has been able to withstand withering criticism from the liberal intelligentsia and corruption allegations against her party leaders to secure a resounding affirmation from the voters. Ms Banerjee’s victory will have far-reaching implications. With this scale of victory she may have snuffed out whatever chances the CPI(M) had of forging a comeback in Bengal. That the Congress has done better than the CPI(M) is an astonishing tale of decline for the latter and portends a further churning of political loyalties in localities across the state — a process that can expected to be marked by violence while providing opportunities for the BJP to expand. How Ms Banerjee and the NDA navigate their relationship hereon will have a bearing on Bengal’s future and India’s. The BJP’s historic victory in Assam is a significant boost for the party after last year’s setbacks in Delhi and Bihar and crucially signals that it is no longer a purely Hindi-heartland party, but is in fact ready to make a further push into the East. It also represents a strong comeback for party president Amit Shah, who deftly handled the dynamics within the BJP’s Assam unit and choreographed the alliance with the Asom Gana Parishad and the Bodoland People’s Front. Managing two regional heavyweights is no easy task, particularly if they are recent entrants from opposing parties, but the BJP managed to project Sarbananda Sonowal, formerly of the AGP, as the chief minister while drafting in a former Congressman, Himanta Biswa Sarma, as the election convener. The Congress, meanwhile, paid the price for poor performance on the economy and infrastructure development despite being in power for three terms. Its electoral handling was counterproductive; it failed to explore alliances while efforts to project Tarun Gogoi’s son, Gaurav, ended up alienating Sarma, who was a huge asset to the party.

Anushka Sharma on Her Lip Job, ‘I’m Human And Not Perfect’ Agency | New Delhi
Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma’s exaggerated lip pout is making headlines again, after almost two years. On Thursday, the actress was one of the top trends on social media after she gave an interview to Vogue magazine in which she talked about her ‘infamous’ lip enhancement, saying that she wanted her fans to know that she’s “human and not perfect.” “I have nothing to hide. So when I spoke about my lip job, a lot of people called me brave for coming out. But I did what I had to (for my role in Bombay Velvet). I’m not going to lie and say I didn’t; I had to take ownership. I wanted fans to know that I’m human and not perfect,” she told Vogue. In February 2014, Ms Sharma found herself in the midst of a troll-attack when she appeared on an episode of filmmaker Karan Johar’s television show Koffee With Karan. Back then Anushka had said that it was the effect of a “lip enhancing tool” and “make-up techniques” and denied having “undergone any intrusive procedure.” All this was for her then-filming Bombay Velvet, in which she played the role of a Jazz singer. She wrote in the post: “For a short while now I have been using a temporary lip enhancing tool and that along with make up techniques ( I have learnt over the years) is the reason why there might be a change in the appearance of my lips. Having stated this fact let me very vehemently assure everyone that I have by no means gone ‘under the knife ‘ or done any kind of ‘plastic surgery’ or undergone any intrusive procedure. This was my decision and was done for the sake of my look in my upcoming film Bombay Velvet, a period drama where I play a jazz singer in the 1960’s - 70’s . And it was taken from the referencing of that time.”

The Asian Games gold-medallist, who is eyeing not just a medal but also an Olympic berth in this event, used her left hooks to telling effect against Soderstrom, who failed miserably in capitalising on her reach. In fact, the Swede looked clueless whenever Mary Kom mounted an attack. While Mary Kom was all precision in her punches,
especially the right jabs, Soderstrom’s swings were mostly off-target. Every attempt that the Swede made at attacking was blocked brilliantly by the swift-moving Manipuri. Even though Soderstrom did manage to make an impression in the fourth round, she had already lost the larger battle to her more experienced Indian rival. In the end, it was hardly a surprise that the judges unanimously picked Mary Kom as the winner.

Virat Kohli story: Right progression, great conversion in Indian Premier League 2016
Agency | New Delhi

At times, it looks like the Indian Premier League (IPL) is specially staged to showcase the brilliance of Virat Kohli. At closer look, though, the same can also be said about recent ICC sanctioned tournaments like the Asia Cup and the Twenty20 World Cup. The 27-year-old is unstoppable, and is on the verge of creating many more batting records. What makes him such a potent force today, is, due to right progression, and even better conversion — the two facets which rule cricket. For instance, until the start of IPL 9, this season, the Royal Challengers Ban-
galore skipper was without a Twenty20 century. And after 13 innings, he has four of them. Talking about those hundreds, his first ton, against Gujarat Lions took 63 balls; the second one against Rising Pune Supergiants took 56 balls; then the third one against Lions again took 53. The fourth one, against Kings XI Punjab, took 47 balls.
Then, what about his conversion? In 2016, Kohli has 11 scores of 75 or more in T20s. A record! The India Test captain has also converted 11 of his 16 50-plus scores into scores of 75 or more this year in just 25 innings. If he continues to progress, and keeps converting at this rate, he will have his own almanac cricketing records very soon.

Johnson had dismissed de Villiers five times in the Test format and three times in one-dayers since they first collided in December 2008. He is the fourth highest wicket-taker for Australia in Tests, claiming a staggering 313 wickets in 73 matches.

It’s arrival of good news from a region where BJP was in need of it. Talala is considered traditionally a Congress seat. Congress won Talala in last two assembly polls(2007 and 2012) and in every other assembly poll barring just two in 1995 and 2002. However this time, Congress has lost by-poll. The seat was vacant due to sudden death of sitting Congress MLA Jashubhai Barad. Congress fielded his brother Bhagwanbhai Barad who is former MLA.
