by Leave a Comment

Singapore ministry said the estimated number of Covid-19 cases nearly doubled from 13,700 in previous week to 25,900 in the week of May 5 to 11.

The Singapore government is closely monitoring a new surge in Covid-19 infections, as the estimated weekly case count almost doubled in the week ending May 11. Health minister Ong Ye Kung on Saturday advised the wearing of masks again.

Singapore’s ministry of health stated that the government was closely tracking the trajectory of the new wave. According to the ministry, the estimated number of the Covid-19 cases nearly doubled from 13,700 in the previous week to 25,900 in the week of May 5 to 11.

The ministry reported that average daily Covid-19 hospitalisations increased from 181 to approximately 250 during the same period. To preserve hospital bed capacity, public hospitals have been instructed to reduce non-urgent elective surgeries and transfer appropriate patients to care facilities.

“We are at the beginning part of the wave where it is steadily rising,” health minister Ong Ye Kung said, according to a Straits Times report.

He added, “The wave should peak in the next two to four weeks, which means between mid- and end-June.”

Ong also encouraged those at highest risk of disease—including individuals aged 60 and above, medically vulnerable individuals, and residents of aged care facilities—to get an additional dose of the Covid-19 vaccine if they have not been vaccinated in the past 12 months.

Speaking about social restrictions Ong said there were no plans for any form of social restrictions as of now, as Covid-19 is treated as an endemic disease in Singapore. The minister added that imposing additional measures would be a last resort.

Ong, however, accepted the fact that Singapore, being a transport and communications hub, will be one of the cities that experience a wave of Covid-19 earlier than others.

“So Covid-19 is just something that we have to live with. Every year, we should expect one or two waves,” he said.

Pune Porsche Deaths: Teen Who Killed 2 With Porsche Got Bail In 15 Hours.

The 17-year-old boy at the wheel of the speeding Porsche that hit a bike in Pune Saturday night, killing a man and a woman, was out on bail 15 hours after he was arrested. His lawyer Prashant Patil said a court granted bail to the minor on conditions — he has to work with traffic police in Yerwada for 15 days, write an essay on accidents, undergo treatment for his drinking habit and take counselling sessions. The accused is the son of a prominent Pune realtor.

Twenty-four-year-olds Aneesh Awadhiya and Ashwini Koshta, both engineers from Madhya Pradesh working in Pune, were returning on a bike after attending a get-together with friends. The Porsche, which eyewitnesses have said was driving at over 200 km per hour and had no number plates, hit the bike. Ashwini was thrown about 20 feet in the air and landed hard, said an eyewitness. Aneesh was thrown at a parked car and suffered serious injuries. Both died on the spot.

“The accident took place around 2.15 am. The car was in full speed. The driver was fleeing after the car hit the bike, but the airbags deployed. He could not see the road and parked the car. And locals caught them. Besides the driver, there were two occupants in the car. One of them escaped. The crowd beat up the other two,” said an eyewitness, an auto-rickshaw operator waiting for a ride.

The eyewitness said police reached the spot in 15 minutes.

The minor, it is learnt, was returning with his friends from a pub where they were partying to celebrate clearing their Class 12 exams.

Following a complaint by a friend of one of the victims, an FIR was registered under sections relating to death by negligence and rash driving. The teenager’s father and the pub that served him alcohol are also likely to be charged, police have said.

Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar said police had urged the court to treat the accused as an adult because this is a “heinous crime” and sought his custody. Police will approach the sessions court against the bail order, he said. “The father of the juvenile accused who handed over this car without a number plate to him to drive and allowed him to go to a pub has also been proceeded against. The establishment that served alcohol has also been proceeded against,” he said. 

The case is now being investigated by an Assistant Commissioner of Police-level officer and a “watertight case is being made out”, he said. The police commissioner said it is clear that the boy was driving under the influence of alcohol. Several eyewitnesses have said the teenager and his friends were heavily drunk.

The incident has sparked massive outrage, with many blaming lax laws for deaths due to rash driving and minors on the wheels.

Anurag Kulshrestha, president of an NGO that works for road safety, told NDTV, “There is no fear of law. In Pune, when authorities tried to enforce the helmet rule, all political parties came out to protest. We are living in an indisciplined society.”

Manchu Manoj will play The Black Sword in his comeback film. The filmmakers released his first look on the actor’s birthday.

After an 8-year-long hiatus, actor Manchu Manoj is ready to return to the silver screen. His first look from Karthik Ghattamaneni’s Mirai, starring Teja Sajja, was released on his birthday, May 20. The first look introduces him as The Black Sword, a character that’s introduced as someone powerful.

Manoj’s The Black Sword

The makers shared a video introducing Manoj’s character in the film. He’s introduced as the ‘most dangerous force in this world’, and we’re also shown a glimpse of his unique weapon. The video also showcases his fighting skills and the makeover the actor went through. He sports long hair and beard for his role, which seems like it could be morally ambiguous.

And can’t get a better occasion than this to give u all a special treat on my birthday with the glimpse!! Hope you’ll love it. It was a privilege joining forces with this very special team.”

‘Apni Aukaat Mat Bhulo’: Social Media Slams ‘Classless’ RCB Players for Neglecting CSK’s MS Dhoni After Playoff Decider Clash.

by Leave a Comment

Fans and followers alike referred to RCB’s post-match celebration and their failure to give MS Dhoni a handshake as “classless” and “over the top” on social media, which sparked a discussion over the true spirit of the game.

A apparently insurmountable task presented as simple. Last night, Royal Challengers Bengaluru shocked everyone by winning six straight games and securing the final playoff berth, a point ahead of CSK, whom they routed by 27 runs in the Chinnaswamy on Saturday.

The RCB players came to the pitch in wild celebration to commemorate their stunning playoff qualification. Reaching a goal of this magnitude demands joy as well.

But as usual, there is more scrutiny when there are greater stakes. The “classless” and “prideful” celebration style that the Bengaluru team adopted following their victory over CSK has also gained popularity recently.

Fan footage from the Chinnaswamy last night following RCB’s triumph has surfaced on X. In it, the home team is shown celebrating by charging to the middle of the crease while the losers, CSK, are seen line up in order to shake hands with their opponents, with talisman MS Dhoni leading the pack.

Fans and followers alike referred to RCB’s post-match celebration and their failure to give MS Dhoni a handshake as “classless” and “over the top” on social media, which sparked a discussion over the true spirit of the game.

But, as a counter, many other users have also raised the question to MS Dhoni’s reaction, who is seen promptly walking away before shaking the players’ hands, who were in the middle of the crease.

Others pointed out Dhoni’s reaction as ‘arrogant’, stating that the CSK man could have indulged in some patience had he looked to address his rivals.

No matter what the case may be, one thing is for certain. RCB pulled off one of the biggest comebacks in IPL history, after clinching only one win in their first 8 games to securing playoff qualification. And that is surely something that calls for celebration.

  • PM Modi took a swipe at Mamata Banerjee, her nephew Abhishek
  • PM Modi claimed he works for the poor, Dalit and tribals
  • He criticised Trinamool Congress for the ‘teacher recruitment scam’

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday took a veiled dig at West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and said that he does not have to do anything for any of his nephews. The Prime Minister’s remarks were an apparent reference to Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader and Mamata Banerjee’s nephew Abhishek Banerjee.

“Modi does not have to do anything for himself. Neither do I have to do anything for any of my nephews nor do I have to leave anything for any brother. I have to work for the people living in the forests of Bankura. I have to leave a developed India as a legacy for the children of poor, Dalit and tribals, so I have come to seek your blessings for the third time,” PM Modi said while addressing an election rally in Bishnupur.

Further in his speech, PM Modi also lashed out at the TMC and said that the party has not even spared the children of the state in its hunger for money.

“TMC has not even spared your children in its hunger for money. Here the ‘teacher recruitment scam’ has put the future of the youth as well as the coming generations at stake. Poor parents sold their houses and lands, took loans and bribed their (TMC) ministers. Today all those youth are on the streets,” he said.

“What was their fault after all? I guarantee you all, they have got your houses sold, Modi is going to get the bungalows of the corrupt TMC people, their cars, everything sold,” he added.

The Prime Minister also hit out at the INDIA bloc, including TMC, the Left and the Congress and said that they look like three different parties, but their sins are the same.

“They have always given slogans to the poor, labourers, SCs and STs, but wherever they ran the government, they left those states poor and West Bengal is an example of this,” he said.

Barely three minutes later, Pedri spotted a gap in Rayo’s high defensive line and he was put through on goal with a long ball from centre back Ronald Araujo, allowing the 21-year-old to fire home and double his goal tally for the season.

JEE Advanced 2024: Key Chapters by Subject for Last Week.

by Leave a Comment

JEE Advanced 2024: With the exam set on May 26, students are already well into their study sessions for JEE Advanced. As the exam provides entry to the nation’s most sought-after IIT institutes, candidates should strengthen their preparation with a solid plan.

In order to assist students in streamlining their study methods during the final week, the article concentrates on subject-by-subject preparation for the forthcoming exam.

Also Read RBSE 12th Result 2024 Live Updates: BSER Rajasthan Board Class 12 Results Link After Press Conference.

Physics

As the exam is just a few days away, students should concentrate on chapters that carry a lot of weight. Work power energy, Current Electricity, Laws of Thermodynamics, Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Current, Magnetic Effects of Current, and Electrostatics are all very important from the standpoint of JEE Advanced 2024.

It is strongly advised that applicants review the key ideas on the subjects. Reviewing difficulties that have already been resolved can help to reinforce understanding rather than creating new ones. This method helps with concept reinforcement as well as error detection and correction, which is an important part of exam preparation. Furthermore, students may benefit from memorization of important formulas and derivations during the exam.

Chemistry

In Chemistry, Chemical bonding and molecular structure, General organic chemistry, Electrochemistry, Carbonyl Compounds — aldehydes and Ketones, and Atomic structure are important topics that are more likely to be asked in exams.

When studying Chemistry, one should be well-versed in the important reactions and the various organic chemistry mechanisms. Considering that chemical bonding and periodic tables form the basis for various concepts, during preparation, students should focus on getting a good grasp of the fundamentals to amplify their performance in the section.

Mathematics

To score well in Mathematics, prioritise Continuity and Differentiation, Definite integration, Circle, Probability, and Differential Equations. Students should solve as many mock tests as possible and time themselves to increase their speed and accuracy while solving the problems. Going back to the notes maintained over the year can be very helpful in keeping the important formulas at the tip of the finger.

While the subject-wise strategy is essential, it’s equally important to cover the entire syllabus and not solely focus on high-weightage chapters. Regularly solving mock tests can familiarize students with the paper pattern and enhance their application of concepts.
