HYDERABAD, MARCH 30
Chief Minister A. Revanth
Reddy instructed officials
to ensure uninterrupted
power supply and regular
drinking water across the
state in view of the
increased heat conditions
early in the summer. He
said that the government
had made available the
required power to meet
the growing demand and
officials should be on high
alert to avoid power cuts.
The Chief Minister was
reviewing the power sup-
ply and drinking water sit-
uation with senior offi-
cials of the departments
concerned at the Secret-
ariat here on Saturday.
Reddy said that electrici-
ty supply had set a record
compared to the previous
year.
He appreciated discoms
for supplying electricity
without imposing power
cuts in March when there
was unprecedented
demand for power. He
credited deputy chief min-
ister and energy minister
Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka
and energy officials for
this. Compared to last
year, the electricity sup-
ply has increased signifi-
cantly this summer. The
average power load is 9712
MW. Peak demand of
14,000 to 15,000 MW was
reported in the last two
weeks.

TET aspirants want clarity
RACHEL DAMMALA I DC
HYDERABAD, MARCH 30
Aspirants complained of
confusion following the
release of the latest
Teacher Eligibility Test
(TET) notification by the
education department, stat-
ing that it did not mention
provisions for in-service
teachers’ eligibility.
Under the notifications
predating August 23, 2010,
in-service teachers were
explicitly deemed eligible to
take the TET. However, the
latest notification has omit-
ted this crucial provision.
Leaders of teachers
organsations met addition-
al director of school educa-
tion K. Lingaiah on
Saturday over the issue.
Representatives from

Joint Council of Teachers
Organisations (Jacto),
Progressive Recognised

submitted their concerns.
With the application win-
dow for the exam slated to
be open till April 10, teach-
ers are caught in a dilem-
ma: whether to apply, and if
so, which paper to opt for.
The prevailing uncertain-
ty has fuelled frustration
among teachers, prompting
some of them to seek clari-
fication from the higher
authorities.

DC CORRESPONDENT
HYDERABAD, MARCH 30
The BJP has demanded that
the Revanth Reddy govern-
ment summon former Chief
Minister K. Chandrasekhar
Rao, his son K.T. Rama Rao,
nephew T. Harish Rao, former
home minister Mahmood Ali,
and former DGP Anjani
Kumar for interrogation
regarding the phone-tapping
operation and major scams, if
the government was sincere
and its actions are not intend-
ed for political gains.
“The government must first
summon KTR for openly
admitting to a few incidents of
phone-tapping,” said BJP vice-
president N.V.S.S. Prabhakar.
He claimed that Chief
Minister Revanth Reddy and
Chandrasekhar Rao had been
cooperating with each other,
on why BRS leaders were not
being summoned.
He said it was improper to
blame irrigation officials for
the damage to the Kalaesh-
waram project, and asked why
the government was not sum-
moning Harish Rao.
He asked why former minis-
ter Talasani Srinivas Yadav
had not been summoned in the
sheep distribution scam.
He described the 100 days of
the Revanth Reddy govern-
ment as the ‘100 lies rule.’

HYDERABAD, MARCH 30
BJP Assembly floor leader
Aleti Maheshwar Reddy
warned that the Revanth
Reddy government would col-
lapse within 48 hours if minis-
ter Komatireddy Venkat Reddy
tried to lure or poach party
MLAs. He was responding to a
remark by the minister that
some BJP MLAs were in con-
tact with the Congress.
Maheshwar Reddy stated
that BJP MLAs had no history
of defections and remained
loyal to the party ideology. He
claimed that Venkat Reddy
and met BJP leaders Amit
Shah and Nitin
Gadkari to
defect to the BJP.
“Due to your
suspicious
nature, we did
not trust you or
encourage you,”
he stated at a
press confer-
ence. He claimed Aleti
that besides Maheshwar
Venkat Reddy, Reddy
five other minis-
ters in the Revanth Reddy gov-
ernment were in touch with
the BJP. Responding to this,
Venkat Reddy said that Mahe-
shwar Reddy was levelling
baseless allegations against
him. Venkat Reddy claimed
that during a conversation in
the Assembly lobbies, Mahe-
shwar Reddy had expressed a
desire to rejoin the Congress if
given a place in the Cabinet.
However, Venkat Reddy told
him that the party, enjoying
full majority, was not consider-
ing including defectors as min-
isters. On the allegation that
he met with Amit Shah and
Gadkari, Venkat Reddy offered
to swear under oath at the
Bhagyalakshmi temple to
deny the claims.

Saturday. Congress councillor
Gaddam Indupriya was elect-
ed as in-charge chairperson.
Out of the 49 councillors, 10
BRS rebels voted along with 27
Congress councillors to unseat
Jahnavi. All six BJP council-
lors were absent and Jahnavi
secured only the votes of six
BRS councillors. All the BRS
rebels later joined the
Congress.
After wining the vote, the
councillors met with govern-
ment adviser Mohammed Ali
Shabbir. Shabbir Ali highlight-
ed that even BRS councillors
had complained about irregu-
larities and insisted on chang-
ing the municipal chairper-
son. Shabbir Ali said the
Congress would focus on pro-
viding corruption-free gover-
nance in Kamareddy. He ass-
ured that land-grabbing would
be curbed and house permits
would be given without asking
for bribes. He said that the peo-
ple had voted out the BRS in

their corrupt practices.

demolished. They are

mere slogan. The CAA and

given is that please ensure

Q At a recent public

Does this mean the MIM

We are committed to the
development of

Telangana gave a clear
mandate to the Congress
and Revanth Reddy as
Chief Minister. We will
stand by him on the devel-
opment front. I assured
him that we will not do
anything that will disturb
development, peace and

Thousands of Christians
from the city participated
in the ‘Run for Jesus’, an
event that began in 2011.
Initially confined to the
city, it has now expanded
to more than 500 locations
across both Telugu-speak-
ing states. This is the
largest Christian run or
rally, taking place annual-
ly on Holy Saturday. The
youth appear to be the
most enthusiastic partici-
pants, donning white
sports outfits and singing
praise and worship songs
from the flag-off to the fin-

The ‘Run For Jesus’ Ral-
ly is a collaborative effort
by the Federation of Telu-
gu Churches, Telangana
State Federation of Chur-
ches, Telangana Council
of Churches, and Twin
Cities Pastors’ Fellowship.
On Saturday morning, the
rally started from St Ma-
ry’s Basilica in Secunde-
rabad.
Cardinal Poola Anthony,
Archbishop of the
Hyderabad, flagged off

at St. George's Church in

The Unique Bhajana Te-

rally on a vehicle, engaged
everyone with songs as
the procession pro-
gressed. Comprising
around 50 members with
instruments, the team
sang praise and worship
songs. Its team leader, U.
Sanjeev Sanju, remarked,
“From the starting point
to the end, our songs
engaged everyone. All the
participants also sang
along with us.”
Paul Devapriyam Pulla,
the founder of the event,
said, "Christians across
the two Telugu-speaking
states have participated in
the rally at various ven-
ues. The main venue
received an exceptional
response, as usual, mak-
ing the event a success.
There were prominent
speakers and star musi-
cians present. It was the
people's participation that
made this event one of the
best Christian events in
India.
He added, “Actor-turned-

sador for the event, along
with Bishop MA Daniel of
the Methodist Church and
a host of other senior pas-
tors from every denomi-

"Most of these fires are
not very big. We have so
far managed to contain
them before they could
spread. But it is very pos-
sible that a very large
uncontrollable fire could
be round the corner," he
said.
On March 29, there were
reports of 178 incidents of
forest fires from across the
state. The department
requires around `50 crore
for augmenting the fire-
fighting equipment, and
related expenses like fuel
to operate blowers and for
vehicles carrying fire
teams into the forest, offi-
cials said.
“The analysis of 15 years
has identified that of the
9,790 forest compartments,
1,106 are high fire prone,
while another 1,621 have
been classified as medium
fire prone. Fires are com-
monplace in forests along
1,279 habitations of the
4,252 forest fringe villages.
Even forest roads are sites
for fires,” deputy conser-

G. RAM MOHAN I DC
HYDERABAD, MARCH 30
The cumulative rainfall
data from June 1 last year
to date pegs the rainfall
deficit at over 20 per cent
in some districts, accentu-
ated by the 93 per cent
rain shortfall in October
of last year. Coupled with
a 53.45 per cent deficit in
the northeast monsoon,
the situation has become
dire in many mandals.
On declaring a drought,
the government would
need to provide giving
input subsidy, reschedule
crop loans and provide
grass to cattle. The gov-
ernment must provide
drinking water to villages.
With mandal-wise rain-
fall deficit being the norm
for identification of
drought-hit mandals,
farmers unions say the
government should look
at local conditions.
In case a drought is
declared, the agriculture
department has to suggest
alternative crops to farm-
ers and give technical
guidance.
None of this was done

a recognition of the legiti-
mate space for women.
Interestingly, it is not a film
that eulogises the status of
women as a mother, sister,
sacrificial lamb, doormat
and other stereotypes.
Kareena did a film on
woman-space — even earli-
er in Veere Di Wedding and
dealt with her professional
space in Ki & Ka. So has
Tabu done herself and
given the cause its periodic
nudges. Kriti Sanon as a
surrogate mother pressed
her case and credentials
and is slowly laying her
claim on proper attention.
Apart from the fact that the
film recognises space for
suspects. For a good part of
the narrative, it is not
known what they are sus-
pected of, or detained for.
The three air hostesses
work for a dying airline —
Kohinoor Airlines. The air-
lines is headed by Vijay
Walia (Saswata Chatterjee).
No marks for guessing

Vijay. As if there was a need
to probe, the red uniform is
all-telling. Geetha Sethi
knows that she is working
for a crumbling employer.
Jasmine is the smart alec

about snatching costly
items from wherever she
can. Divya also has prob-

lies to her parents that she is
a pilot while she is an
airhostess.
The three therefore have
reasons to fly higher than
merely fly. By accident, they
realise that a regular pas-
senger is smuggling gold at
the instance of their manag-
er Manoj Mittal (Rajesh
Sharma). Tempted to make
quick money, placed along-
side need, the three take to it
and succeed till the law
catches up with them, or
nearly does. Divya for all
her lies encourages Jalveer
Singh (Diljit Dosanjh) and
exploits his naivety.
Rajesh A. Krishnan choos-
es a reasonably impish, fun-
filled script. He works
around the infamous air-
line without having to
moralise on the issues
involved. The premise and
the verve of the principal
characters is interestingly
established and executed
till half-time. It is the post-
interval treatment that
lacks punch and credibility.
Saswata Chatterjee as
Walia is woefully inade-
quate. Maybe because the
film-maker does not invest
in the character and pushes
by the repute of the origi-
nal character rather than
independently establish
hesitant enjoyment with
perfection. It needed an
actor of her calibre and
does she deliver. Kareena
Kapoor understands the
nuances of humour. From
the ‘Poo’ girl to the umph
girl, she’s done it all. There
is a live wire spirit in the
actress that is a needed
essential to her Jasmine.
Kriti Sanon who till the
other day looked like a
work in progress has sud-
denly blossomed. The very
courage to join cinematic
space with the unquestion-
able Tabu and the fizz-filled
Kareena is an announce-
ment of confidence. This is
matched with performance.

ly. Moreover, in a country
as large and diverse as
ours, imposing an authori-
tarian monolith is playing
with fire.
Politics is a dynamic
process. Those who seem
invincible at one time, can
crumble against the wrath
of the people. Who could
have thought that in 1971,
after winning the war with
Pakistan, and helping to
create Bangladesh, Indira
Gandhi, with an absolute
majority in Parliament,
and hailed as the incarna-
tion of Durga, would by
1975 need to declare an
Emergency to remain in
power? When she lifted it
in 1977, her party, the
Congress, was thrown out
by the people, and she lost
her own election.
There is also the example
of Rajiv Gandhi. In 1984,
he won a historic mandate,
with an absolute majority
of over 400 seats, which
neither his mother Indira,
nor grandfather Nehru,
had achieved. He was
young, handsome, with a
modern vision, and seem-
ingly undefeatable. The
BJP was then reduced to
the fact that they
have been elected.

acquires a dangerous
impunity. The conviction
of being unchallenged,
leads to excesses, which
may not be effectively chal-
lenged in the immediate
future, but become the
very reason for the explo-
sion of slow-burn anger
gradually building among
citizens. The interesting
thing is that the suprema-
cist leader is the last to
read the changing mood of
the public.
Misuse of power has the
greatest ‘legitimacy’ in
democracies. Those com-
mitting it do not need to
abolish the democratic sys-
tem but can claim valida-
tion for its misuse by the
fact that they have been
popularly elected in a
largely free and fair elec-
tion. This added sense of
entitlement becomes a
spur to convert aberration
into excess, and excess into
the very subversion of de-
mocratic institutions. The
process is imperceptible,
miraculously appears.

At the News 18 conclave I
was in a conversation with
senior leader Ram Madhav
of the BJP, on the nature of
Hindutva. I admire
Madhav’s intellectual cre-
dentials. I had no disagree-
ment with him when he
said that Hindutva is the
same as the Hindu faith, so
long as he meant it as the
essence of its fundamental
strengths: A conquering
eclecticism of vision, pro-
found philosophy, and
innate tolerance to dissent.
But when Hindutva is used
as a political tool to create
hatred, bigotry and reli-
gious divisions in society,
it cannot be conflated with
Sanatan Dharma. If
Hindutva reduces the
grandeur of Hindu thought
to its lowest common deno-
minator, and brazenly
weaponises it for political
dividends, it cannot be con-
sidered a synonym for
Hindu Dharma. If self-
appointed ‘thekedars’ of
Hindutva think it is their

The organisations, jointly
leading the “People for
Himalaya” campaign, issued a
five-point charter of demand
for all political parties for the

an election campaign in

with a rally in Meerut.
The BJP has fielded actor
Arun Govil, renowned for
his portrayal of Lord Ram
in the TV serial
‘Ramayan’, as its candi-
date. Meanwhile, the
Opposition I.N.D.I.A. Bloc
is gearing up for a major
showdown at the Ramlila
ground, where it plans to
hold a rally protesting
against the arrest of Delhi
Chief Minister Arvind
Kejriwal and former
Jharkhand Chief Minis-
ter Hemant Soren by the
Enforcement Directorate.
Alongside Congress presi-
dent Mallikarjun Kharge
and former President
of 11 other Opposition
parties have confirmed
their attendance at the
event. The Congress said
the rally is to safeguard
the Constitution and
democracy. The
Opposition party stressed
that a “strong message”
will be sent out from the
rally on Sunday to Lok
Kalyan Marg (the prime
minister’s residence), sig-
nalling that the BJP-led
government's “time is up.”
Addressing a press meet
on the rally, Congress gen-
eral secretary Jairam
Ramesh stated that party
chief Mallikarjun Kharge
and former party chief
Rahul Gandhi, among
other senior leaders, will
address the gathering.
“This is not a rally cen-
tered around any particu-
lar individual; hence it is
named the Loktantra
Bachao Rally. It involves
ed with the I.N.D.I.A. Jan
Bandhan. All constituents
of the I.N.D.I.A. Jan Ban-
dhan will participate,”
Ramesh said. He high-
lighted that one of the key
issues to be raised is the
alleged targeting of the
Opposition through the
“misuse of central agen-
cies,” citing the arrests of
two chief ministers and
several ministers as politi-
cally motivated actions.
Representing their
respective parties, TMC
Rajya Sabha leader Derek

Dutch hostage drama over,

No bloodshed, authorities say no reason to suspect a ‘terrorist motive’
Ede, March 30: A hosta-
ge drama in the Netherl-
ands that lasted several
hours on Saturday ended
without bloodshed as all
hostages were freed and
police took the suspect
into custody.
Authorities have said
there was no reason to su-

for the ordeal, which took
place at a night spot popu-

the town of Ede.
“The last hostage has
just been released. One
person has been arrested.
We cannot share more
information at this time,”
announced police on X,
formerly Twitter.
Several local media rep-
orted that a “confused”
man had burst into the
cafe in the early hours of
Saturday morning and
made threats, holding
four people hostage.
The incident sparked a
major deployment includ-
ing riot police and explo-
sives experts. Police clea-
red the centre of the town
and evacuated the resi-
dents of some 150 build-

“A terrible situation for
all these people. My con-

ones. I hope that the situ-
ation is now resolved
quickly and safely,” said
Ede mayor Rene Verhulst.
Last year, a 27-year-old
man armed with two guns

Biden claims world leaders PERU PREZ

said don’t let Trump win polls
New York, March 30:
Making a forceful case for
his re-election, US Presid-
ent Joe Biden has claimed
that during his meetings
with world leaders, inclu-
ding at the G20 summit in
India, almost every one of
them told him not to let
his predecessor Donald
Trump win in 2024 as they
feel it would put their
democracies in danger.
Meanwhile, Biden’s reel-
ection campaign is
appealing directly to sup-
porters of former
Republican presidential
candidate Nikki Haley,
who was the last major
opponent to Donald
Trump before she with-
drew from the race earlier
this month. “Nikki Haley
voters, Donald Trump do-
esn’t want your vote,”
Biden said.
“Whether it’s the G20
meeting in India or what-
ever the meeting where

ing when I say in front of

HOME RAIDED
IN LUXURY
WATCH PROBE
Lima, March 30: Peruv-
ian authorities raided
President Dina
Boluarte’s home on
Saturday as part of an
ongoing graft investiga-
tion related to undis-
closed luxury watches.
According to a police
document obtained by
AFP, about 40 officials
were involved in the
raid, which was search-
ing for Rolex watches
that Boluarte had not
publicly declared. The
raid “is for the purpose
of search and seizure,”
police said.
The embattled presi-
dent did not appear to be
home at the time. Prime
Minister Gustavo
Adrianzen slammed the
raid as an “intolerable
outrage” and “dispro-
portionate and unconsti-
tutional.”
Authorities launched
an investigation into
Boluarte this month
after a news outlet drew
attention to pictures of
her sporting luxury
watches at public events.
Saturday’s raid, a joint
operation between the
police and the prosecu-
tor's office, was broad-
cast on local television

Washington, March 30:
Normally they’re the ones
grilling Washington power
players. But the tables have
been turned on the White
House press corps.
A news report made waves
Friday in the US capital with
its humorous — but detailed
— investigation into ram-
pant theft from the press sec-
tion of Air Force One, the pr-
esident’s official plane.
“For years, scores of jou-
rnalists — and others — have
quietly stuffed everything
from engraved whiskey tum-
blers to wine glasses to pretty
much anything with the Air
Force One insignia on it into
their bag before stepping off
the plane,” Politico reported.
Last month, the White Ho-
use Correspondents’ Associ-
ation sent an email to its
members, issuing a stern
notice that missing items
from the press cabin had not
gone unnoticed.
When the US president
travels, he is accompanied by
13 journalists in the back of
his Boeing. Media outlets pay
for the journalists to fly on
the government plane, along
with the meals and drinks
served in-flight.
The crew distributes as sou-
venirs small packages of
M&M’s chocolates bearing
the presidential seal and the
US leader’s signature. Glass-
es and other Air Force One-
branded accessories are avai-
lable for purchase online.
But that is not good enough
for many of those aboard the
plane, Politico’s report noted,

IS wants lone wolves’ Ramzan
massacre of Christians, Jews
Group praises Moscow attack, marks 10th anniv. of caliphate in Iraq, Syria
Kabul, March 30: ISIS
has urged its followers to
carry out attacks on Chri-
stians and Jews in the US,
Europe, and Israel during
Ramzan. The group’s sp-
okesperson, Abu Hudhay-
fah al-Ansari, also praised
last week’s terror attack in
Moscow that claimed 140
lives.
He used the messaging
app Telegram to call for
“lone wolves” to target
Christians and Jewish pe-
ople during the holy mon-
th. Al-Ansari also warned
that the presence of US
troops in Iraq could lead to
more attacks from the
group. This comes as ISIS
marks the 10-year anniver-
sary of declaring a caliph-
ate in Iraq and Syria in
2014. In a lengthy audio
speech, he praised the
global growth of ISIS and
criticised Al-Qaeda for
straying from their path.
He declared that Ramzan
was the month of jihad.
The spokesperson also cal-
led on “members” in Moz-
ambique to “double attac-
ks” and militants in the
Philippines to “move oper-
ations into major cities”,
in a chilling and worrying
sign. He continued to call
on the Mujahidin, those
who engage in Jihad, and
media leaders to obey
their elders, and dissemi-
nate Islamic State’s mes-
sage far and wide, reports
the Mirror.
Currently, there is little
intel on ISIS spokesper-
son, besides that he took
on the post as spokesper-
son in August 2023 to rep-
lace Abu Omar al-Muhajir
following his arrest in
Tahrir al-Sham. However,
al-Ansari’s anti-semitic
rhetoric rings loud to his
group of extremists.

SINNER BEATS
MEDVEDEV TO
SET UP FINAL
WITH DIMITROV
Miami, March 30:
Italy’s Jannik Sinner
destroyed defending
champion Daniil
Medvedev 6-1, 6-2 in just
69 minutes on Friday to
reach the final of the
ATP Miami Open, where
he will take on Grigor
Dimitrov.
Bulgarian Dimitrov
made his third Masters
1000 series final after he
beat fourth-seeded
Alexander Zverev 6-4, 6-7
(4/7), 6-4.
The win means
Dimitrov will return to
the top ten in the ATP
rankings for the first
time since 2018, his 260
week wait is the third
longest in the history of
the rankings.
Sinner though will be
the favorite against
Dimitrov, after his dis-
play of power and skill
at Hard Rock Stadium
swept away Medvedev.
The Italian had lost to
the Russian in the
Miami final last year but
rallied from two sets
down to beat him in the
Australian Open final in
January.
The outcome was
never in doubt this time
as Sinner utterly domi-
nated from the outset.
Sinner broke
Medvedev’s first service
game to go 2-0 up in the
opening set, pinning the
Russian in the corner at
the end of a long rally
before blasting a winner
past him.
While the 22-year-old
looked fresh and fired
up, blasting with power
from the baseline and
inventive when he came
to the net, Medvedev was
struggling to just hold
his serve and the Italian
broke again in the
fourth game, taking
advantage of his fourth
break point.
Medvedev finally held
in the sixth game, but
Sinner served out to love
to complete a first-set
rout in just 33 minutes.
It was the same story
in the second set, Sinner
breaking to love to start.
The Russian looked
dejected after he went
wide on a break point to
fall 1-4 down. — AFP

in Super Giants team
L ucknow Super Giants on
Saturday named New
Zealand fast bowler Matt Henry
as a replacement for England
all-rounder David Willey. Henry
joins LSG at his base price of
`1.25 crore.
Willey had withdrawn from
the tournament citing personal
reasons.
Willey joined the Super Giants
through the auction last year
after representing Royal
Challengers Bengaluru during
IPL 2022 and 2023.
The left-arm seamer had also
complained of fatigue after
spending more than two months
on the road after appearing in
other T20 tournaments like
ILT20 (Abu Dhabi Knight
Riders) and Pakistan Super
League (Multan Sultans) earlier
this year.
Green feels ‘lucky’to
play with Kohli,Rohit
C ameron Green’s fledgling
IPL journey has seen him
appearing in 19 matches over
two seasons for Mumbai
Indians and Royal Challengers
Bengaluru, but it has also given
him a chance to work up close
with two modern-day giants —
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.
“They are both greats in the
game. Every time I think about
it, I'm still pinching myself that
I've been lucky enough to play
with two of the greats of world
cricket, if not Indian cricket,”
said Green on Saturday.
So, what makes Kohli, his cur-
rent teammate at RCB, and
Rohit, his former captain at MI,
different from others?
“They’re both equally happy
to help the team win matches.
They’re both equally happy to
give you a lot of their time, to
give you information on the
other team and their own expe-
riences and what’s worked for
them, what hasn’t,” said Green.

Lucknow jump to 5th spot with first win of season
Lucknow, March 30:
India unearthed a new
fast-bowling star in
Mayank Yadav (3/27) who
searing pace amid the
usual flurry of monstrous
hits as Lucknow Super
Giants humbled Punjab
Kings by 21 runs in the
IPL here on Saturday.
Asked to bat first, floater
Krunal Pandya’s late blitz
powered LSG to a competi-
tive 199/8.
Opener Quinton de Kock
top-scored for LSG with a
38-ball 54 but it was stand-
in skipper Nicholas
Pooran’s 21-ball 42, which
infused life into his team’s
innings in the middle
overs. On the back of two
sixes and four boundaries,
Krunal then scored at a
strike rate of 200 to finish
on a 22-ball 43 and give his
side extra cushion.
That total proved to be
enough for LSG, who reg-
istered their first win of
this IPL thanks to
Mayank’s exploits.
Punjab, who ended at
178/5, missed Liam
Livingstone’s (28 not out
off 17 balls) service at No.4
as he could not bat in the
position due to an injury.
In the 12th over of
Punjab’s innings, Mayank
bowled the tournament’s
fastest ball at 155.8 kmph.
It was Mayank’s extra
pace that rattled Jonny
Bairstow, Prabhsimran
Singh and Jitesh Sharma
and led to their downfall.
He consistently clocked
150 and above on the
speedometer during his
four-over spell, emerging
as the night’s hero.
This was after the dash-
ing opening combo of
Shikhar Dhawan (70 off 50
balls) and Bairstow (42 off
29 balls) quickly got the
measure of what looked
like a very good surface
for batting, both getting a
few boundaries to set the
ball rolling. PBKS skipper
Dhawan made a statement
of sorts when he reverse-
swept M Siddharth over
backward point.
Delhi have task cut out against CSK
Visakhapatnam, March
30: Delhi Capitals will be
aiming to rejig their out-
of-depth batting order by
bringing the flamboyant
Prithvi Shaw in the mix
against the defending
champions Chennai Super
Kings in what could be
safely termed as a ‘battle

Indian Premier League
encounter.
In T20 format, reputa-
tions do go for a toss but
DC in their last four meet-
ings haven’t been able to
get past CSK and the mar-
gins of defeat — 91, 27 and
77 runs respectively paints
a sorry picture. One also
needs to take into account
that in those three heavy
losses, the core of the
Delhi team has been more
or less same save their last
meeting when Rishabh
Pant wasn’t available.
Hence a win against CSK
would be considered as a
big upset in the tourna-
ment.
If CSK once again looks
like a team to beat with all
its bases nicely covered, it
has been quite the oppo-

TACTICAL DECISIONS: GARY
Ahmedabad, March 30: Gujarat Titans might
have made a topsy-turvy start to IPL 2024 but their
mentor Gary Kirsten backed Shubman Gill, and
said the young captain will learn the nuances of
making tactical decisions in the fast-paced world of
T20 cricket. Titans, the IPL 2022 winners and the
current runners-up, are now placed seventh on the
table with two points from as many matches after a
win over Mumbai Indians and defeat against
Chennai Super Kings.
“It’s a fast game. You are making tactical decisions
on a regular basis. It’s not like Test cricket where it
unfolds over a long period of time.
“I’ve been really impressed with the way he’s con-
ducted himself as a leader,” Kirsten said on Sunday.
Kirsten said Gill, who took over as GT skipper
after Hardik Pandya moved to MI, has adjusted to
his role well.
“I think he’s embraced it (captaincy) really well.
He’s shown some good leadership qualities. He’s a
smart guy. He’s a young captain, and there’s lots to
learn, especially in T20. So, he’ll learn along the

THE UGLY TRUTH OF Daniel Balaji

BODY DYSMORPHIA
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
This disorder’s onset typically
occurs around the age of 12, with
adolescents and young adults
exhibiting alarming symptoms
such as excessive food consump-
tion, extreme exercise, rigid diet-
ing, starvation, purposeful vom-
iting, and social withdrawal.
Dr Gorav Gupta, psychiatrist
and co-founder of Emoneeds
explains, “The notion that men
should be muscular and lean cre-
ates unrealistic standards, lead-
ing to body dysphoria in men.
The pursuit of extreme muscu-
larity or low body fat leads to
men engaging in excessive exer-
cise or steroid use.” Dr Aswathi
Prasad, Consultant Clinical
Psychologist, Niyama Digital
Healthcare shares her take on
the vast array of mental health
issues arising from body dysmor-
phia in men. “Bullying and soci-
etal pressure to conform to ide-
alised body standards contribute
to stress, anxiety, depression,
rejection, sensitivity and dimin-
ished self-esteem among men.”
THE GYNECOMASTIA EFFECT
One of the significant reasons
for body image issues among
men of all ages is gynecomastia.
It is a condition that affects two-
thirds of the population. It
occurs when abnormal hormon-
al levels and increased estrogen
lead to enlarged chests more
than the average size. It often
leads to relentless bullying of
“man boobs” and inappropriate
touching during childhood from
peers. Partners or wives may
also perpetuate mockery that
can shatter self-esteem.
According to the Indian
Medical Council, around 30,000
Indians suffer severe depression
due to the trauma of gynaeco-
mastia.
Dr Amit Gupta, a cosmetic

— Dr AMIT GUPTA,

director at Divine Aesthetics
says, “Gynecomastia transforms
young boys from extroverts to
introverts, crushing their self-
confidence. Social seclusion
becomes their refuge as they
retreat at home and abstain from
figure-hugging sports, with
decreased participation in out-
door activities. Many contem-

less bullying from peers.” The
treatment for gynecomastia is
solely breast reduction surgery
despite many bogus medicines
and harmful testosterone injec-
tions claiming to reduce breast

changed), a 22-year-old IT engi-
neer speaks of his struggle with
body dysmorphia. “I was bullied
in school for being too thin and
rejected by women. That led me
down a dark path of bad vices.
However, after going to the gym,

resilience and

fering the loss of a

it very hard to be

my mental

says. He watched the helpless-

eyes after he lost motor control

and can last for many years.
THE HEALING TOUCH

healing men from body image
issues often involve a combina-

explains how psychiatrists and
therapists help men struggling
with BDD. “Emphasising nutri-

selling; establishing a safe space
to express emotions, gradual

help men overcome eating disor-

Gupta says. Incorporating self-
compassion, open dialogue, and
realistic expectations can be
instrumental in guiding men
toward a positive and healthy
relationship with their bodies- a
unique and worthwhile journey
toward well-being.

easy to get exciting ideas off the ground. But never fear! This month, with a Total

‘Films are a collaborative effort’

Even as Telugu cinema races

filmmaker Venu Donepudi recalls
with pride that his family made

the industry — 1940s and 50s
On his maternal side, Venu hails
from the legendary Gudavalli
Ramabrahmam family which has
written and directed many films,
including landmark ones like
Maala Pilla, Raithu Bidda and
Palnati Yudham in 1940s.
Inspired by his grandfather

Venu Donepudi looks back at his family’s strong legacy in cinema
film business while he was in the
USA a few years ago. “I worked as
an automobile engineer there for
more than a decade, but my passion
for films was strong. I took up exhi-
bition and distribution and han-
dled over 150 films in the US and
globally before turning filmmak-
er,” he says. Venu is debuting as a
producer for the yet-to-be-titled
film starring Gopichand and
directed by Sreenu Vaila. The last
schedule of the film’s shooting
commenced recently. He says, in
this era of content-driven films,
audiences won’t settle for anything
mediocre. “Filmmaking has
changed over the years and audi-
ences are watching world cinema;
it’s extremely challenging to bring
out engaging content,” he notes,
adding that he’s glad to bring out a
film which is content-based. “Life
in showbiz has been enriching
because films are a collaborative
effort of several people at different
levels.”
