Kuwait City, Jul 11: An Indian overseas employee, Mukesh Kumar working at Al-Lewaa Security Service of Farwaniya in Kuwait was suspended from his job with immediate effect for his allegedly provocative post on Facebook. The company confirmed his suspension over mail.

Kumar wrote on his timeline that Indian Hindus should boycott the essential commodities like cosmetics, clothes, garage from the local Muslim shops and urged Hindus to campaign for this boycott as Muslims work predominantly in these profession in every colony. He requested the Bengali Hindus that West Bengal government is not their government; it is the government of the Muslim clerics. He added that once ‘our government’ came to power, they could do they another riot like Godhra but until then boycott was the way to go.

The post was circulated heavily on social media once it came in notice and Irony of India first shared it followed by the Milli Gazzette. The former has more than thousands shares and the later around seven hundred. It has steered the sentiments of many Muslims and Hindus, both Indian and overseas and many have exhorted their agony in the comments section of Facebook.

Sekh Younus, from Kolkata got confirmation of Kumar’s suspension by the Security Company. Mukesh’s Facebook account is deactivated now when the post was severely criticised from all sections of the society.

Bangalore police should look for the real person who deceived and cheated them and disrupted in their duties. They should arrest him under goonda act so that no one else should do such trouble making. It is shame that police detailed small children without fool plus water. Police should be shameful and should seek unconditional apology. Responsible police authorities should be questioned for their inhuman act. they have no right to detain innocents. The only reason for detaining the children was their religious identity and nothing else.

Emirates had previously reduced basic wages by 25 to 50 per cent for three months from April, with junior employees exempted.

On Thursday, Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways confirmed to Khaleej Times that it also extended salary cut of its employees till September 2020.

"Regretfully, Etihad has extended its salary reduction until September 2020, with 25 per cent reduction for junior staff and cabin crew, and 50 per cent for employees at manager level and above. Housing allowance and a number of benefits continue to be paid," the airline's spokesperson said in a statement last week.

In March, Etihad had announced temporary reduction of basic salaries for the month of April to all staff, including executives, between 25 to 50 per cent.
