Indian General Election
• Voting: Over five stages - April 20, 22, 26 and May 5 and 10 - because of logistics and need to deploy security personnel. Voting is not compulsory. • For the first time, electronic voting machines will be used across the nation. There will be more than 700,000 polling stations. • Results: Counting for all states is on May 13, with a final tally - first past the post - expected the same day. • Parliament: 545 seats, of which 543 will go to the polls and two are appointed by the president. New parliament must be in place by August 6. World of Sports Saturday, April 24 • Despite Win, India’s fate hangs in balance (Times of India) India overcame initial jitters to beat Uzbekistan 2-1 on Friday in the Fed Cup Asia/Oceania Zone Group I Pool B match. Now, India’s advancement to the all-important play-offs on Saturday depends on the Korea-Indonesia result. India did themselves no favour by losing the first singles. Ankita Bhambri, who had played magnificently over the past week to give India early leads, surrendered to Uzbekistan’s Ivanna Isroilova 4-6, 4-6, thus putting the Indian camp under immense pressure. • Painting the men in white (Indian Express) WHILE others tear off their shirts, wave flags and scream till they are hoarse for cricket, some artists strive to cling to their nonchalant, slightly irreverent stance on the game. ‘‘Actually I hate cricket,’’ says M F Husain. That’s a little hard to swallow since he’s painted two walls measuring 38 x 6 and 35 x 8 feet at the Polly Umrigar Sports Bar in Cricket Club India (CCI)—for free! ‘‘Painting Gavaskar or Tendulkar would have been cliched, so when CCI approached me for the mural, I decided to portray the sport as if it were a ballet,’’ says Husain adding, ‘‘Sometimes it takes an outsider to bring a new interpretation.”
