Dear Venkatesh,

aria-live is especially used when the content author want the screen reader
user to identify the change that is happened on the page without loosing
the user's current focus. The three possible values polite, assertive and
off (default) of aria-live only *announces* the updated content on
specified portion of the page. Focus mannagement cannot be achieved by
aria-live or any other aria roles, states or properties.

Thanks & Regards
Rakesh
ARIADear Venkatesh,
