Mangaluru, Aug 11: A youth from Dakshina Kannada district, who had to undergo severe hardship after joining a new in Qatar, finally returned home with the help of NRI social activists from Gulf country. 

Abdul Hameed (35), hailing from Killur village in Belthangady of the coastal district was working as a light vehicle driver in Qatar for several years.

Three months ago, he changed his company when offered a better pay package. "I was made to work for about 20 hours a day. I had to rush whenever I get calls," he said.

His efforts to get help from the embassy went in vain. He called all his friends in the Gulf countries. Finally, one of his friends in Saudi Arabia brought Hameed's issue to the notice of the Karnataka Cultural Foundation (KCF), a socio-cultural organization of NRI Kannadigas.

KCF volunteers made necessary arrangements for his repatriation. Hameed took off from Qatar on August 4 and reached home safely.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
