Media Release
March 3, 2018

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.”

Newsroom, May 26: A migrant worker died of hunger while a 10-month-old boy suffering from fever and breathing difficulties died negligence in two separate incidents onboard Shramik Special trains in Uttar Pradesh.

The 46-year-old dead migrant worker’s nephew, who was accompanying him, said that the victim had not eaten anything in the last 60 hours.

Raveesh Yadav said that no food or water was provided on the train, which they had boarded from Mumbai to travel to their native place in Jaunpur district in Uttar Pradesh.

Yadav and his uncle were working as construction workers in Mumbai.

Yadav told the paper that the train had left the Lokmanya Terminal in Mumbai, at 7pm on May 20 and arrived at its final stop, Varanasi Cantonment station, at 7.30am on May 23.

“But my uncle, who was complaining of hunger and pain all over his body, fainted half an hour before we reached Varanasi Cantonment and died within a few minutes,” Raveesh was quoted as saying.

He added that he and his uncle were hungry when they boarded the train but could not find food or water to buy.

Railways’ apathy

Meanwhile, the family of 10 month old child, who died in the train, alleged that the railways did not arrange for a doctor despite their repeated pleas.

The railway doctors had been moved to Covid-19 hospitals and by the time a doctor was provided at Tundla railway station, it was too late, the report quoted the child's grandfather, Dev Lal, as saying.

Lal said that the family members had tried to speak to the GRP at many stations, including at Aligarh, where the train had halted. "But they showed no interest and said any help would be available only in Tundla,” Lal said.

Railways officials then took the kin to a quarantine centre in Tundla, as they suspected that the baby had died because of the novel coronavirus.  It was only on Monday that the incident came to light when another individual at the quarantine facility intimated journalists after the condition of the child's mother worsened.

Last November, the mother of the child, Priyanka Devi of Bihar's Notan village in West Champaran, had gone to visit her parents who reside in Noida with the baby, who was then just four months old. Her husband Pramod Kumar is a farmer, the report added.

Bengaluru, Aug 4: Police barricades, yellow banners, walls with a fresh coat of paint and the sounds of bhajan mark parts of Ayodhya as the city awaits its big day Wednesday, when the first brick will be laid for the Ram temple.

Ayodhya is decked up for the bhoomi pujan that will be attended at the Ram Janmabhoomi by 175 people, who figure in a select guest list of seers and politicians topped by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Concerned over the spread of coronavirus, the authorities are encouraging others not to come to the temple town, asking them to mark the occasion by celebrating at their homes. The groundbreaking ceremony will be telecast live.

Roads leading to Ayodhya display hoardings with the picture of the proposed Ram temple and of Ram Lalla, the infant Ram, the deity now housed in a makeshift temple.

Around the town’s Hanumangarhi area – named after a well-known temple which Modi will visit on Wednesday – both police sirens and ‘bhajans’ in praise of Ram are heard.

Most of the shops in the locality wear a new look, with their fronts painted in bright yellow. A large number of policemen were deployed there on Tuesday. Some sat in the sweet shops, waiting for their next instructions.

Roads leading into the area are barricaded. Yards of yellow cloth and marigold garlands were being hung on poles.

Even on the day before the event, security checks on vehicles heading to Ayodhya begin from adjoining Barabanki district itself on the Lucknow-Ayodhya road. Policemen take down details, including mobile numbers of the travellers.

Senior Superintendent of Police Deepak Kumar said the focus of the force is on maintaining the Covid-19 protocol.

“So we are not going to allow any outsider to enter Ayodhya city,” he said. Prohibitory orders are also in force and not more than four people will be allowed to gather.

“The markets and shops will remain open but with strict adherence to the Covid protocol,” he said. Outsiders will be stopped from entering the city, but Ayodhya residents will be allowed in if they produce any identification document.

“We are also carrying out random checks on people living in Ayodhya to ensure that no outsiders are staying here,” he said.

The city’s temples and mosques will remain open, but no other religious event – except for the bhoomi pujan – will take place on Wednesday.

Pickets have been set up at sensitive points in the city.

Sub-inspector Ram Chandra Yadav and constables Avnish Kumar and Ankit Chaudhary man the Terhi Bazar Chauraha picket near the Ram Janmabhoomi site.

"We are here for the past some days, and were on duty on the Rakshabandhan day. Duty comes first and only after that come other things in life, like festivals," Yadav said.

Mayank Gupta, who runs a restaurant, was handing out food packets to policemen, his customers.

"For the last two months, I have been providing tiffin to them twice a day. There are around 100 policemen to whom I supply tiffin," Gupta said.
