The campa was inaugurated at 9.00 am by Karnataka Sports & Cultural Club President Mr. Ashraf Hassan. With four registration counters there were six volunteer groups to highlight the public on the awareness, necessity and benefits of blood donation.

Volunteers with their enthusiastic and competent approach promoted their noble cause at the exit / entry door of Al Ghubaiba Metro station, Bus station, Carrefour and traffic signals. From 9.00 am till 1.00 pm there was an unprecedented queue of participation for blood donation.

The very good positive response from the community exceeded our expectation as about hundred plus donors had registered, despite waiting in a long queue. The systematic arrangements, efforts and encouragement shown by the DHA to collect blood from the donors is most appreciable.

Complimentary Cups and Caps, snacks and soft drinks were distributed to the blood donors. Pamphlets signifying the importance and benefits of blood donation were also distributed.

At the concluding speech, the Club Manager Mr. Mohammad Shafi said “the blood donation camp received a remarkable response from the public which is highly commendable and we are very glad to have served the community by collaborating with Dubai Health Authority and Community Development Authority”.

Dubai, Aug 7: ‘Nama Tuluve’ Purushotham Salian, a staunch stalwart who always supported humanity and a strong pillar for Tuluvas in Dubai, passed away August, 4 at Al Tawam Hospital Al Ain. He was suffering from cancer and was admitted to Al Tawam Hospital Al Ain some time ago. He was on the last stage of illness which was not detected earlier.

His funeral last rites were conducted on Thursday August 7 at Jebel Ali cemetery in Hindu rites with a few of his family members present. Due to Covid pandemic, neither his body was able to be flown back to hometown nor could his two children come down to attend the funeral. However, it was said that his wish was to be cremated here in Dubai which unknowingly sometime back he whispered to one of his friends.

Purushotham had few years ago, survived a heart attack and fought back his life, though it had a minor paralytic effect on him. Even though, till recently he used to do his day-to-day work normally. He was a hard working personality and owned a readymade garment shop in Ajman and Dubai mostly taking care of clients with requirement of uniforms and coveralls. His dedication towards work was always appreciated by his clients who used to get their things delivered on time always.

He was never a publicity person and was helping the poor and needy in whatever ways he could silently. He strongly supported the community and was associated with Nama Tuluveru and Billawa community with commitment. He used to voluntarily come forward for the ground work of various functions of the community and used to be there until it was done perfectly.
