Expect: Block of lines should be executed only if access succeeds

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hello
I'm using expect to create a script. I want some lines to be executed only if the telnet succeeds to the target host. Kindly check the code that i created. The problem i'm facing that while execting the script, the lines after login seems to be ignored. The password is not sent and also the below lines.

send "telnet x.x.x.x\r"
expect {
"login:" {send "root\r"}
 expect "Password:" {send "xxxxx\r"}
  expect "root@*n*s*#" {send "/usr/local/NTP/scripts/ntp_supervision.sh -test\r"}
   expect "root@*n*s*#" {send "scp /usr/local/NTP/sup/time_difference 172.16.33.1:/tmp/time_difference_OMCPstandby\r"}
    expect "root@*n*s*#" {send " ntpq -p > /tmp/ntp_out_OMCPstandby\r"}
     expect "root@*n*s*#" {send "scp /tmp/ntp_out_OMCPstandby 172.16.33.1:/tmp/ntp_out_OMCPstandby\r"}
    
}
