Abu Dhabi: The Bearys Welfare Forum-Abu Dhabi, recently organized a seminar on Global Economy and Repercussions on NRIs focusing mainly on Gulf Kannadigas at Grand Continental Hotel, here. Several prominent NRI personalities from various fields attended the seminar.

Saif Sultan of Hope Foundation was the resource person. Advocate Saaduddin Salih, Altaf Kateeb and Rafeq Ahmed of Sahibaan, Mohammed Hakeem of KCF, Abdul Salam Deralkatte, ICC, were guests of honor.

Abdulla Madumoole, General Secretary, BWF, delivered the introductory speech. Comparing the repercussions of the Great Depression of 1930 with that of the repercussions on the world economy after the Great Recession of 2008, he some rulers like Hitler had manipulated the hardship of people into their own advantage by exploiting the nationalistic emotions in the 30s and a similar atmosphere prevails world over now and people are vulnerable again to an emotional nationalistic blackmail.

Governments in UAE and world over spent on infrastructure projects to overcome the financial crisis exactly how America did in 30s. Though the economy of UAE has stabilized, unfortunately NRIs have been losing jobs. To discuss various issues relating to NRIs and make the people aware of investment opportunities and financial facilities available to them back in India, BWF organized this seminar “Global Economy and Repercussions on NRIs”.

Mohammed Ali Uchil, President, BWF, in his welcome address put a few words on ‘major challenges for NRIs to get adjusted in Indian conditions’. NRIs who have worked in high position in foreign countries may face problem in adjusting in India, he said adding that the big concern for NRIs is their kids who may find sudden change in their lifestyle for which they are not prepared. 

“The kids of NIRs face problems in adjusting in Indian schools. They may face problem in interaction with their pear group who may like to converse in the local language while they prefer talking in English. NRI kids have to struggle adjusting with Indian lifestyle. There are vast difference in values and habits of NRI kids and Indian children. It is observed that NRIs who are thinking of returning back must fully understand the living conditions of India before they take such a step. There are various issues that they have to be tackled while living in India and they must be aware of them.  The main hurdles may include cultural, logistical and economic etc. Rebuilding healthy relationship with their relatives, friends and others will also be a challenge. They have to follow all customs and traditions and participate in cultural and religious festivals. NRIs placed at high position in companies abroad are accustomed to a certain lifestyle. Their lifestyle in foreign countries is completely different and they may find living conditions in India a big problem. They may have to face problems like hygiene, and other such life style related issues,” he said.

He thanked BWF-executive committee members for their hard work, dedication and effort to organize the function and bring in to its complete success and spirit. “It’s an incredible achievement for BWF, which managed to accomplish so many tasks to its utmost goal set, and God willing all of its project will be a complete success.”

Bengaluru, May 5: The Karnataka excise department booked a case against a wine shop owner in this tech city for allegedly selling more liquor than permitted under the law to a buyer on the first day of shops reopening for business after 40-day lockdown on Monday, an official said on Tuesday.

"We have booked a case against licensed shop owner S. Venkatesh for reportedly selling Indian made liquor (IML) and beer to a buyer on Monday more than he is permitted under the Karnataka Excise Act section 36," Bengaluru South Excise Deputy Commissioner A. Giri told media persons.

The alleged sale came to light when the unidentified customer posted in the social media a receipt showing he bought liquor worth Rs 52,841 from Vanilla Spirit Zone in the city''s south-eastern suburb on Monday afternoon.

"Preliminary investigation revealed that 17.4 litres of IML was sold against the permissible limit of 2.3 litres and 35.1 litres of beer against the legal limit of 18.2 litres," Giri said.

Venkatesh, however, told Giri that the buyer paid for the liquor bought by him and seven of his colleagues at the same time from the shop as they entered together.

"We are investigating to ascertain if Venkatesh violated the license conditions by paying for liquor bought by his friends with him at the same time," Giri added.
