MODI STORM IN SYDNEY
HOUSEFULL
AJAY KUMAR
ODI, MODI, MODI….. as
the chants reverberated
through Qudos Bank
Arena in Sydney, revered
and cherished ‘Rock-
star’, Bruce Springsteen benig-
nantly relinquished his hard-
earned title, “The Boss” to the
leader of the most populace democ-
racy in the world, Prime Minister
Narendra Modi. 20,000 plus packed
Qudos Bank Arena, rocked like
never before. A scene, I vividly re-
member off the Madison Square
Stadium in New York, when sur-
passing any Rockstar, Basket Ball
Zeus or a Poseidon — stood tall on
the central stadia - the man, the vi-
sion, the dream – ‘Rockstar’ Naren-
dra Modi. Nine years hence, it is
the Prime Minister of Australia,
Anthony Albanese, who summed it
all — “The last time I saw someone
on this stage was Bruce Springs-
teen and he did not get the welcome
that Prime Minister Modi has got.
Prime Minister Modi is ‘The Boss’.”
Charisma or Enigma, call it
what one may – such is the attrac-
tion of the galvanised aura of PM
Modi, that the American Presi-
dent Biden had to benignly con-
cede, “I must seek your autograph,
we are all, but sold out for the
state banquet to hosted upon your
arrival at the Capitol”. Jestingly
spoken words at times carry more
weight than diplomatically crated
sentences, in the international
arena. And to cap this Internation-
al crazy — frenzy — mania, the
humble feet-touching gesture by
Prime Minister James Marape of
Papua New Guinea at the airport,
breaking all established protocol
— foretells the appeal of Brand
Modi intertwined with the glory
of the nation — India.

TWEETS
rime Minister Narendra Modi
used his trip exceedingly well
and astutely as usual when he
told the head of state of 14 Pa-
cific island nations two days ago
that India can be considered to
be a “reliable” development
partner and even those consid-
ered trustworthy were “not
standing by our sides in times
of need.” Did he make an
oblique reference to the Asian
Giant, China?
Elaborating further, PM Modi
said at the Forum for India-Pa-
cific Islands Cooperation (FIP-
IC) summit in Port Moresby,
Papua New Guinea, that “Those
we considered trustworthy, it
turned out they were not stand-
ing by our side in times of need.
During these challenging times,
an old saying has proven true:
‘A Friend in need is a friend in-
deed’. I am glad that India stood
with its Pacific Island friends
during this challenging time
(the Covid pandemic). Whether
it was vaccines or essential
medicines, wheat or sugar; In-
dia, in line with its capabilities,
has been assisting all partner
countries.”
Even as Papua New Guinea
does not accord ceremonial wel-
come to any leader coming in
after sunset, an exception was
made for PM Modi. Not only
that, Papua New Guinea Prime
Minister James Marape, while
welcoming PM Modi, touched
his feet in a move that drew
huge limelight. Modi is also the
first Indian PM to visit the
country
.
IN THE CURRENT
CONTEXT, WHY IS
PAPUA NEW GUINEA
IMPORTANT FOR INDIA?
To discuss this aspect, one
must first consider the coun-
try’s location which is strate-
gic: Papua New Guinea is lo-
cated north of Australia, a re-
gion where Beijing is attempt-
ing to spread its influence and
the US and Australia are seek-
ing to counter it. It must be re-
called that Beijing has carried
out large investments in the
country (Papua New Guinea),
especially in sectors like infra-
structure and schools.
Global political analysts con-
sider this to be an attempt to
gain military and diplomatic
significance. Last year, China
inked a security pact with Solo-
mon Islands which is situated in
the same region. On Monday
, the
US and Papua New Guinea
signed a security agreement,
prompting protests from island
residents who oppose ‘militari-
sation’ of the Pacific.
New Delhi’s attempt to boost
ties and cooperation with the Pa-
cific Island nations, which in-
clude,CookIslands,Fiji,Kiribati,
theRepublicof MarshallIslands,
Micronesia, Nauru, Niue, Palau,
Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu and Va-
nuatu apart from Papua New
Guinea and Solomon Islands.
One has to keenly watch the
FIPIC summit and PM Modi’s re-
cent visit to Fiji and Papua New
Guinea and realise the impor-
tance of the trip. It may be re-
calledthattheFIPICsummitwas
launched during Modi’s visit to
Fiji in 2014. In 2015, the second
FIPICsummitwasheldinJaipur.
This summit is the third one.
THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY
THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL
From the 1880s, parts of
the country were ruled
by Germany, Australia,
and Britain, till the
independent nation was
born on September 16,
1975. Papua New
Guinea is part of the
Commonwealth, and
England’s King Charles
III is its official King.
The monarch is
represented by the
Governor-General,
who is nominated by
the Parliament. The
Prime Minister is
democratically elected.
James Marape is the
current Prime Minister
and the Governor-
General is Bob Dadae.

MODI PLAYS CRUCIAL ROLE AT
STRATEGIC PAPUA NEW GUINEA

AT PNG...

Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape touches the feet of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his arrival, in Port Moresby on May 21.
THE US
DEAL
Secretary of
State Antony
Blinken said a
defence cooperation pact
inked with Papua New
Guinea on Monday would
expand the Pacific Island
nation’s capabilities and
make it easier for the US
military to train with its
forces.
Blinken and PM Modi
held separate meetings
with 14 Pacific Island
leaders in the PNG
capital Port Moresby,
pledging support for
the region’s priorities of
health, development and
climate change.
The United States and
its allies are seeking
to deter Pacific Island
nations from forming
security ties with China,
a rising concern amid
tension over Taiwan, and
moreover after Beijing
signed a security pact
with Solomon Islands.
Pacific Island leaders,
whose territories span
around 40 million square
km (15 million square
miles) of ocean, have
said rising levels of the
sea caused by climate
change are their most
pressing security priority.
Meanwhile, Blinken
told PM Marape that
Washington would
deepen its partnership
across the board with
PNG, and that he expect-
ed partnerships with US
businesses would bring
tens of billions of dollars’
worth of new deals.
The US and PNG
struck a separate agree-
ment on increasing
surveillance of PNG’s
exclusive economic zone
through US Coast Guard
patrols, protecting its
economy from illegal
fishing.
The United States will
provide $45 million in
new funds as it works
with PNG to strengthen
economic and security
cooperation, including
protective equipment for
the PNG defence force,
climate change mitiga-
tion and tackling trans-
national crime and HIV/
AIDS, Blinken said.
US
WHAT MODI SAID
Modi told the Forum for
India-Pacific Islands Coop-
eration that India would be a re-
liable development partner and
was committed to a “free, open
and inclusive Indo Pacific”. “We
are willing to share our capabili-
ties and experiences in digital
technology, space technology,
health security, food security,
climate change and environ-
ment protection,” he said. The
Quad leaders of Australia, Unit-
ed States, Japan and India had
agreed in Japan at the weekend
to increase cooperation with the
Pacific, Modi said.

ing in Karnataka, Con-

Rajasthan. With this in
focus, high command is
making another attempt
to bridge the differences
between CM Gehlot and
hisformerdeputySachin
Pilot. For this an impor-
tant meeting is being
held in Delhi on May 26,
which many senior
leaders will attend. But
will this divine dream
come true? According to
informed sources, it’s
very unlikely as noth-
ing can happen in Ra-
jasthan which Gehlot
does not approve of. So,
this meeting can also
prove to be a “futile ex-
ercise”.
Before the meeting,
the high command will
have to find a perma-
nent solution to the Ge-
hlot-Pilot issue. Other-
wise, after the meeting,
Pilot may again start
some new yatra or rally
.

New Delhi: Chaos and

ed from several parts of
Delhi on the first day of
exchange of `2,000 cur-
rency notes on Tuesday
with people complain-
ing that banks were in-
stead asking to deposit
them and also demand-
ing ID proofs. While
notes will still be con-
sidered legal tender,
people have been in-
structed to either de-
posit existing `2,000
notes in accounts or ex-
change them at banks.
1st day saw long queues,
disgruntled customers
and growing concerns
among elderly citizens.
Women and her daughter pose for selfie with the `2,000 currency

NOT DEMONETISATION: RBI DEFENDS BEFORE
DELHI HC `2,000 NOTE EXCHANGE EXERCISE
RBI on Tuesday told Delhi HC that withdrawal of `2000 notes
is not demonetisation but a statutory exercise and decision to
enable their exchange was taken for operational convenience.
Bench of CJ Satish Chandra Sharma & Justice Subramonium
said it will look into it and pass an appropriate order.

differences between Gehlot-Pilot

rousing welcome, PM
Modi said that India’s
relationship is often
characterized by the
“3Cs”, “3Ds” and “3Es”,
adding that they have
now gone beyond these
labels. “I believe rela-

Australian Prime
Minister Anthony
Albanese said on Tues-
day that his Indian
counterpart Narendra
Modi gets a “rock star
reception” wherever he
goes, as he welcomed
his “dear friend” at an
event here and com-
pared him to American
singer Bruce Springs-
teen. Albanese pitched
for greater cooperation
between India and Aus-
tralia as he welcomed
PM Narendra Modi.
 I want see the rela-
tionship between the
two countries continue
to grow, including in the
business and education
sectors.
 I thank my “dear
friend” Modi for
“bringing the spirit of
the world’s biggest de-
mocracy to Australia”,
he has helped “make
our democracy stronger
and more inclusive.
 More business
leaders and artists and
families sharing Modi’s
experiences and his
knowledge and ideas.
 Centre’s location in
western Sydney was a
“testament to the vitality
of the Indian-Australian
experience”, giving a
shout-out to the new
Parramatta Lord Mayor
— Sameer Pandey.
 When I came here in 2014, I
made a promise to you that you
will not have to wait for 28 years
for an Indian PM. So, here I am in
Sydney once again.
 New Indian consulate will be
opened in Brisbane soon.
 Our cricket-based relation-
ship has completed 75 years. As
intense as the on-field match is,
our relationship is equally deep off
the field.
 Last year when Shane Warne
died, hundreds of Indians were also
mourning. We felt like we have lost
someone very close to us.
 Our lifestyles may be differ-
ent but now Yoga also connects
us. Now tennis and films are also
connecting us. We might prepare
food in different manners but Mas-
terchef is connecting us now.
 Our dream is to see India be-
come a developed nation. IMF and
the World bank consider India a
bright spot in the global economy.
 Banking system in several
countries are in trouble today but
on the other hand, the strength of
India’s banks are being appreciated
everywhere.
 Back in 2014, I had promised
that India’s poorest will also have
their own bank accounts. Today,
about 500 million bank accounts
have been opened.

However, whether I will
be 100% successful or

tinue in five districts.”

Virat Kohli is not new
to defeats in the IPL.
But rarely in his 16-year
stint with RCB has his
team lost when 'King
Kohli' got going in the
manner that he did on
Sunday at the Chinnas-
wamy Stadium.
It can be interpreted
as a passing-of-the-ba-
ton moment in Indian
cricket, because it was
Shubman Gill's 104 off
52 balls that overshad-
owed Kohli's 101 off 61.
Aussie legend Mat-
thew Hayden, in an in-
terview a few days ago,
said that Gill is already
there, proving himself
to be the man who will
take the legacy of Kohli
forward, just the way
Kohli did 10 years ago
when Sachin Tendulkar
left the stage.

Jaipur: Prime Minister
Narendra Modi will ad-
dress a huge public
meeting in Ajmer on
May 31 on the comple-
tion of nine years of his
governance on May 26.
The PM will be in Ra-
jasthan for the fifth
time in the last seven
months.
The PM’s frequent
visits prove that the
elections will be fought
under the supervision
of the Central leader-
ship and not Rajasthan
BJP. Due to factional-
ism going on in the par-
ty in Rajasthan, this
time, the High Com-
mand does not want to
contest elections on the
basis of Rajasthan. Per-
haps, this is the reason
why Modi, Amit Shah
and JP Nadda have been
visiting Rajasthan.
The focus of the Cen-
tral leadership is the
Lok Sabha elections to
be held next year rather
than the assembly elec-
tions. So, preparations
are being done keeping
both in mind. In Ra-
jasthan, BJP had won 25
out of 25 seats in 2014
and 2019. This time also
the party wants the BJP
to win all the 25 seats.
Remember the things you
wanted when facing adverse
circumstances, remember them
often to know yourself truthfully.

oday, it is estimated that the
majority of people spend at
least an hour of their day star-
ing at their phones, computers,
or television screens. We are
living in a world where tech-
nology continues to play an
increasingly important role in our daily
lives, which means that it is becoming
more and more difficult to disconnect
from the digital world. People are con-
stantly connected to their phones and
computers, and they look at screens for
work, entertainment, or communica-
tion. And youngsters in particular are
more and more hooked to their phones
for extensive use of Social Media.
Mobile phones and laptops emit blue
light, which can interfere with the care
you have put into your skin and rob it
of its shine. To minimize the impact of
technology on our skin, Preeti Daga, a
Lifestyle  Career Coach, recommends
creating healthy screen habits like lim-
iting exposure to blue light, taking
more breaks, and practising effective
skin care.
Blue light is no different from ultra-
violet rays emitted by the sun and blue
light can also cause adverse effects on
your skin. Therefore, it is imperative to
take the necessary precautions to pro-
tect your skin from the potential nega-
tive effects of blue light, especially
anti-ageing.
 Wear a moisturiser that contains
SPF if you spend your day exposed
to technology-induced radiation. Ra-
diation can damage your skin just as
much as UV rays, so apply a moistur-
iser infused with SPF every hour.
 Make sure to find a moisturiser that
is specifically designed for electron-
ic radiation protection.
 HEV light has been linked to the de-
velopment of dark spots and acceler-
ated ageing in the skin. It is recom-
mended to use sunscreen with SPF 30
or higher, to ensure that the skin is
protected from the harsh effects of
HEV light. Additionally
, sunscreens
that are specially formulated to pro-
tect against HEV light are beneficial
astheyprovideadditionalprotection.
 Remember to drink plenty of water
throughout the day to keep your
skin hydrated.
 Furthermore, using a blue-light-fil-
tering screen protector can also help
reduce the effects of harmful blue
light on your skin.
 Additionally, limiting your expo-
sure to devices and taking fre-
quent breaks from screens can
also help reduce radiation expo-
sure. Make sure to take fre-
quent breaks from screens and
limit your technology usage
as much as possible.
 Try to keep your devices
away from your body when
using them and look for de-
vices with lower radiation
emission levels. Be sure to consult a
professional for any further tips on
reducing radiation exposure. Keep
your cell phone away from your bed
at night to minimize radiation expo-
sure.
 Be mindful of the amount of time
you spend on your device. Use a
headset or speakerphone whenever
possible to reduce the amount of ra-
diation that your body is exposed to.
Check your device's user guide for
radiation emission levels.
 Limit the amount of time you spend
on the phone. Turn off the device
when not in use. Use a hands-free
device or earpiece to minimize ex-
posure. Be sure to keep your devices
away from your head and body
when making calls. When not in
use, keep your device in aeroplane
mode to reduce radiation exposure.
Keep the device away from children
whenever possible.
 Charge your device away from your
head and body. Use a headset or
speakerphone when possible. Keep
the phone away from high-traffic ar-
eas like elevators and microwaves.
 Avoid carrying your device in your
pocket or on your body
. Try to keep
your phone use to a minimum. Use a
wired headset instead of Bluetooth.
 Turn off your phone when not in
use. Use the phone in areas with
good reception. Keep the phone at
least 15 cm away from your body.
Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when
not in use. Avoid using the phone
when the battery is low. Use the
speaker mode or a headset when
possible. Avoid using the phone in
places with high electromagnetic
radiation, such as near power lines
or cell towers. Use protective cases
to reduce radiation exposure.
 Additionally, drinking plenty of wa-
ter and eating food that's rich in an-
tioxidants will help keep your skin
looking healthy. Also, remember to
get regular check-ups with a derma-
tologist to ensure that your skin is
in good condition.
 Exposuretobluelightcandamagecol-
lagen and elastin, which are responsi-
bleforkeepingtheskinlookingyouth-
ful. This can lead to wrinkles, discol-
ouration, and age spots. Wearing sun-
glasses that block UV rays, as well as
avoiding screens before bedtime can
help reduce the risk of skin damage
caused by blue light. Additionally
, us-
ing sunscreen and moisturizers with
antioxidants can also help protect
skin from blue light damage.
 Moreover, it is important to keep
yourself hydrated from within as
well as from outside. Therefore, it is
recommended to drink ample
amounts of water and apply a water-
based moisturiser for best results.
 HEV light has been linked to the
development of dark spots and ac-
celerated ageing in the skin. It is
recommended to use sunscreen
with SPF 30 or higher, to ensure that
the skin is protected from the harsh
effects of HEV light. Additionally,
sunscreens that are specially for-
mulated to protect against HEV
light are beneficial as they provide
additional protection.
 Furthermore, using a blue-light-fil-
tering screen protector can also help
reduce the effects of harmful blue
light on your skin. Exposure to blue
light can damage collagen and elas-
tin, which are responsible for keep-
ing the skin looking youthful. This
can lead to wrinkles, discolouration,
and age spots.
 To ensure your protection from
harmful radiation, I strongly sug-
gest using an SPF-based moisturiser
with an anti-ageing formula to keep
your skin from premature ageing.
Reapply moisturiser every hour to
maintain skin health.
 Radicles are tiny particles emitted
from electronic devices' screens.
These particles are very small and
can easily penetrate the skin and get
into the bloodstream, which can
cause a variety of health issues.
Washing your face regularly and tak-
ing frequent breaks can reduce your
exposure to these particles. A face
shield can provide an extra layer of
protection from the particles. In ad-
dition, you can use a face shield to
further reduce radiation exposure.
 Moreover, try to keep the device at
least 20 inches away from your face
to reduce radiation exposure. By
making small adjustments to your
device settings, you can reduce the
amount of blue light you're exposed
to. This will help pro-
tect your eyes and
skin from blue light's
harmful effects.

SECRET
STRUGGLE
im Kardashian and Tom Brady dating rumors started
swirling when the gossip account Deuxmoi posted a
blind. According to The US Sun, Kim Kardashian seems
to be in a ‘secret struggle’ after going on dates with Tom
Brady. Kim told her friends that she cannot date like a
regular person, who just goes on a few dates, get to
know each other without feeling any pressure, as per
The US Sun. With her fame and popularity, even if she looks
at a guy it is turned into a ‘crazy intense situation’ for her-
self. Kim Kardashian would like to date in private but finds
it impossible as per The U.S. Sun source. The star also re-
vealed that very few men can cope with the pressure that
comes from dating her because no one wants his private life
to be completely open in public.

ophie Turner has managed to grab headlines now after she faced criticism over
opting for buccal fat removal. This comes shortly after her husband, singer Joe
Jonas admitted to utilizing injectables, highlighting the growing popularity of
non-invasive face procedures among Hollywood's elite. The Game of Thrones
star has recently been the subject of conjecture about her future move into cos-
metic operations and is said to be giving notably buccal fat reduction a try. A
few then and now photos of Sophie Turner made its way
on social media and prompted a discussion on her al-
leged buccal fat removal. Many noticed the visible
changes and speculated that the actress has gone
under the knife.
However, until now, Turner
hasn't opened up about a fa-
cial surgery or even reacted
to the speculations. While ce-
lebrities are known to keep
their cosmetic surgery expe-
riences a secret, Sophie is
very much expected to come
out and be vocal about it, giv-
ing the fact that her singer
husband admitted to getting
injectables.

their first baby boy in August 2022 and since
then they have been enjoying every bit of par-

arms. She was seen holding Vayu close to her
in a baby carrier. For their park visit, Sonam
wore a black t-shirt paired with checkered
pants and a matching overcoat while baby
Vayu was seen sporting a black and white
striped cap. His face wasn't visible in the pic-

caught the attention of fans and admirers,
finally putting an end to the speculation
surrounding their relationship. For nearly
a year, Sydney Sweeney's engagement ring
had been noticeably absent from public
view. The last time the ring was seen adorn-
ing her hand was around October 2022. Dur-
ing this time, rumours began to circulate
about the nature of Sweeney's relationship
with her co-star Glen Powell while they
filmed the romantic comedy, Anyone but

wondered if their on-screen chemistry had
transformed into something more personal.
However, it was later confirmed that Powell
had already broken up with his girlfriend,
Gigi Paris, before the rumours, putting
those speculations to rest.

  • 1. MODI STORM IN SYDNEY HOUSEFULL AJAY KUMAR ODI, MODI, MODI….. as the chants reverberated through Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, revered and cherished ‘Rock- star’, Bruce Springsteen benig- nantly relinquished his hard- earned title, “The Boss” to the leader of the most populace democ- racy in the world, Prime Minister Narendra Modi. 20,000 plus packed Qudos Bank Arena, rocked like never before. A scene, I vividly re- member off the Madison Square Stadium in New York, when sur- passing any Rockstar, Basket Ball Zeus or a Poseidon — stood tall on the central stadia - the man, the vi- sion, the dream – ‘Rockstar’ Naren- dra Modi. Nine years hence, it is the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese, who summed it all — “The last time I saw someone on this stage was Bruce Springs- teen and he did not get the welcome that Prime Minister Modi has got. Prime Minister Modi is ‘The Boss’.” Charisma or Enigma, call it what one may – such is the attrac- tion of the galvanised aura of PM Modi, that the American Presi- dent Biden had to benignly con- cede, “I must seek your autograph, we are all, but sold out for the state banquet to hosted upon your arrival at the Capitol”. Jestingly spoken words at times carry more weight than diplomatically crated sentences, in the international arena. And to cap this Internation- al crazy — frenzy — mania, the humble feet-touching gesture by Prime Minister James Marape of Papua New Guinea at the airport, breaking all established protocol — foretells the appeal of Brand Modi intertwined with the glory of the nation — India. M Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses the Indian diaspora during a community event, in Sydney on Tuesday. (B) Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Australian PM Anthony Albanese.

I am sure that all of you successful candidates will contribute significantly in the development of the country. Best wishes to all of you for your bright future! Arjun Ram Meghwal @arjunrammeghwal SPIRITUAL SPEAK Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly. —Bible TOP TWEETS rime Minister Narendra Modi used his trip exceedingly well and astutely as usual when he told the head of state of 14 Pa- cific island nations two days ago that India can be considered to be a “reliable” development partner and even those consid- ered trustworthy were “not standing by our sides in times of need.” Did he make an oblique reference to the Asian Giant, China? Elaborating further, PM Modi said at the Forum for India-Pa- cific Islands Cooperation (FIP- IC) summit in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, that “Those we considered trustworthy, it turned out they were not stand- ing by our side in times of need. During these challenging times, an old saying has proven true: ‘A Friend in need is a friend in- deed’. I am glad that India stood with its Pacific Island friends during this challenging time (the Covid pandemic). Whether it was vaccines or essential medicines, wheat or sugar; In- dia, in line with its capabilities, has been assisting all partner countries.” Even as Papua New Guinea does not accord ceremonial wel- come to any leader coming in after sunset, an exception was made for PM Modi. Not only that, Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape, while welcoming PM Modi, touched his feet in a move that drew huge limelight. Modi is also the first Indian PM to visit the country . IN THE CURRENT CONTEXT, WHY IS PAPUA NEW GUINEA IMPORTANT FOR INDIA? To discuss this aspect, one must first consider the coun- try’s location which is strate- gic: Papua New Guinea is lo- cated north of Australia, a re- gion where Beijing is attempt- ing to spread its influence and the US and Australia are seek- ing to counter it. It must be re- called that Beijing has carried out large investments in the country (Papua New Guinea), especially in sectors like infra- structure and schools. Global political analysts con- sider this to be an attempt to gain military and diplomatic significance. Last year, China inked a security pact with Solo- mon Islands which is situated in the same region. On Monday , the US and Papua New Guinea signed a security agreement, prompting protests from island residents who oppose ‘militari- sation’ of the Pacific.

THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL From the 1880s, parts of the country were ruled by Germany, Australia, and Britain, till the independent nation was born on September 16, 1975. Papua New Guinea is part of the Commonwealth, and England’s King Charles III is its official King. The monarch is represented by the Governor-General, who is nominated by the Parliament.

PM Modi also met him during his recent visit P MODI PLAYS CRUCIAL ROLE AT STRATEGIC PAPUA NEW GUINEA A LOOK AT PNG... ROBIN ROY The writer is Senior Journalist and former Managing Editor, First India Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape touches the feet of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his arrival, in Port Moresby on May 21. THE US DEAL Secretary of State Antony Blinken said a defence cooperation pact inked with Papua New Guinea on Monday would expand the Pacific Island nation’s capabilities and make it easier for the US military to train with its forces. Blinken and PM Modi held separate meetings with 14 Pacific Island leaders in the PNG capital Port Moresby, pledging support for the region’s priorities of health, development and climate change. The United States and its allies are seeking to deter Pacific Island nations from forming security ties with China, a rising concern amid tension over Taiwan, and moreover after Beijing signed a security pact with Solomon Islands. Pacific Island leaders, whose territories span around 40 million square km (15 million square miles) of ocean, have said rising levels of the sea caused by climate change are their most pressing security priority. Meanwhile, Blinken told PM Marape that Washington would deepen its partnership across the board with PNG, and that he expect- ed partnerships with US businesses would bring tens of billions of dollars’ worth of new deals. The US and PNG struck a separate agree- ment on increasing surveillance of PNG’s exclusive economic zone through US Coast Guard patrols, protecting its economy from illegal fishing. The United States will provide $45 million in new funds as it works with PNG to strengthen economic and security cooperation, including protective equipment for the PNG defence force, climate change mitiga- tion and tackling trans- national crime and HIV/ AIDS, Blinken said. US WHAT MODI SAID Modi told the Forum for India-Pacific Islands Coop- eration that India would be a re- liable development partner and was committed to a “free, open and inclusive Indo Pacific”. “We are willing to share our capabili- ties and experiences in digital technology, space technology, health security, food security, climate change and environ- ment protection,” he said. The Quad leaders of Australia, Unit- ed States, Japan and India had agreed in Japan at the weekend to increase cooperation with the Pacific, Modi said.

  • 9. First India Bureau Jaipur: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will ad- dress a huge public meeting in Ajmer on May 31 on the comple- tion of nine years of his governance on May 26. The PM will be in Ra- jasthan for the fifth time in the last seven months. The PM’s frequent visits prove that the elections will be fought under the supervision of the Central leader- ship and not Rajasthan BJP. Due to factional- ism going on in the par- ty in Rajasthan, this time, the High Com- mand does not want to contest elections on the basis of Rajasthan. Per- haps, this is the reason why Modi, Amit Shah and JP Nadda have been visiting Rajasthan. The focus of the Cen- tral leadership is the Lok Sabha elections to be held next year rather than the assembly elec- tions. So, preparations are being done keeping both in mind. In Ra- jasthan, BJP had won 25 out of 25 seats in 2014 and 2019. This time also the party wants the BJP to win all the 25 seats. Remember the things you wanted when facing adverse circumstances, remember them often to know yourself truthfully. —Dr Jagdeesh Chandra, CEO Editor-in-Chief, First India JAIPUR | WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 2023 www.firstindia.co.in I https://firstindia.co.in/epapers/jaipur I twitter.com/thefirstindia I facebook.com/thefirstindia I instagram.com/thefirstindia 08 2NDFRONT POSTAL REG NO.

We are living in a world where tech- nology continues to play an increasingly important role in our daily lives, which means that it is becoming more and more difficult to disconnect from the digital world. People are con- stantly connected to their phones and computers, and they look at screens for work, entertainment, or communica- tion. And youngsters in particular are more and more hooked to their phones for extensive use of Social Media. Mobile phones and laptops emit blue light, which can interfere with the care you have put into your skin and rob it of its shine. To minimize the impact of technology on our skin, Preeti Daga, a Lifestyle Career Coach, recommends creating healthy screen habits like lim- iting exposure to blue light, taking more breaks, and practising effective skin care. Blue light is no different from ultra- violet rays emitted by the sun and blue light can also cause adverse effects on your skin. Therefore, it is imperative to take the necessary precautions to pro- tect your skin from the potential nega- tive effects of blue light, especially anti-ageing. Wear a moisturiser that contains SPF if you spend your day exposed to technology-induced radiation. Ra- diation can damage your skin just as much as UV rays, so apply a moistur- iser infused with SPF every hour. Make sure to find a moisturiser that is specifically designed for electron- ic radiation protection. HEV light has been linked to the de- velopment of dark spots and acceler- ated ageing in the skin. It is recom- mended to use sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, to ensure that the skin is protected from the harsh effects of HEV light. Additionally , sunscreens that are specially formulated to pro- tect against HEV light are beneficial astheyprovideadditionalprotection. Remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated. Furthermore, using a blue-light-fil- tering screen protector can also help reduce the effects of harmful blue light on your skin. Additionally, limiting your expo- sure to devices and taking fre- quent breaks from screens can also help reduce radiation expo- sure. Make sure to take fre- quent breaks from screens and limit your technology usage as much as possible. Try to keep your devices away from your body when using them and look for de- vices with lower radiation emission levels. Be sure to consult a professional for any further tips on reducing radiation exposure. Keep your cell phone away from your bed at night to minimize radiation expo- sure. Be mindful of the amount of time you spend on your device. Use a headset or speakerphone whenever possible to reduce the amount of ra- diation that your body is exposed to. Check your device's user guide for radiation emission levels. Limit the amount of time you spend on the phone. Turn off the device when not in use. Use a hands-free device or earpiece to minimize ex- posure. Be sure to keep your devices away from your head and body when making calls. When not in use, keep your device in aeroplane mode to reduce radiation exposure. Keep the device away from children whenever possible. Charge your device away from your head and body. Use a headset or speakerphone when possible. Keep the phone away from high-traffic ar- eas like elevators and microwaves. Avoid carrying your device in your pocket or on your body . Try to keep your phone use to a minimum. Use a wired headset instead of Bluetooth. Turn off your phone when not in use. Use the phone in areas with good reception. Keep the phone at least 15 cm away from your body. Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when not in use. Avoid using the phone when the battery is low. Use the speaker mode or a headset when possible. Avoid using the phone in places with high electromagnetic radiation, such as near power lines or cell towers. Use protective cases to reduce radiation exposure. Additionally, drinking plenty of wa- ter and eating food that's rich in an- tioxidants will help keep your skin looking healthy. Also, remember to get regular check-ups with a derma- tologist to ensure that your skin is in good condition.

Wearing sun- glasses that block UV rays, as well as avoiding screens before bedtime can help reduce the risk of skin damage caused by blue light. Additionally , us- ing sunscreen and moisturizers with antioxidants can also help protect skin from blue light damage. Moreover, it is important to keep yourself hydrated from within as well as from outside. Therefore, it is recommended to drink ample amounts of water and apply a water- based moisturiser for best results. HEV light has been linked to the development of dark spots and ac- celerated ageing in the skin. It is recommended to use sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, to ensure that the skin is protected from the harsh effects of HEV light. Additionally, sunscreens that are specially for- mulated to protect against HEV light are beneficial as they provide additional protection. Furthermore, using a blue-light-fil- tering screen protector can also help reduce the effects of harmful blue light on your skin. Exposure to blue light can damage collagen and elas- tin, which are responsible for keep- ing the skin looking youthful. This can lead to wrinkles, discolouration, and age spots. To ensure your protection from harmful radiation, I strongly sug- gest using an SPF-based moisturiser with an anti-ageing formula to keep your skin from premature ageing. Reapply moisturiser every hour to maintain skin health. Radicles are tiny particles emitted from electronic devices' screens. These particles are very small and can easily penetrate the skin and get into the bloodstream, which can cause a variety of health issues. Washing your face regularly and tak- ing frequent breaks can reduce your exposure to these particles. A face shield can provide an extra layer of protection from the particles. In ad- dition, you can use a face shield to further reduce radiation exposure. Moreover, try to keep the device at least 20 inches away from your face to reduce radiation exposure. By making small adjustments to your device settings, you can reduce the amount of blue light you're exposed to. This will help pro- tect your eyes and skin from blue light's harmful effects.
