Congratulations to mr. Dinesh on this achievement.  It is to be noted that he got this success in an Arab country whereas he would not have done this in his own country due to intolerance.   India should learn lesson from this small Arab country.  Its shame that being a rich country people are suffering in india and people are dying of hunger whereas finger counter rich people are getting richer day by day with the help of Govt and politicians.
