Melwyn Antony Dsouza, one of the popular singers among the Konkani Community residing in U.A.E is known for his amazing talent of Singing, Composing and writing lyrics. He is renowned for his ability to mesmerize and sweep the audience off their seats and bring them to the dance floor with his enigmatic singing and swaying numbers. Melwyn, already a familiar name and sensation among many, has carved a niche for himself in the minds and hearts of music loving people of Mangalore, and is expected to enthrall the audience with his usual charm and flamboyant singing at the event. Talented singers from U.A.E as well as Mangalore will join Melwyn, to present a sensational musical evening. Loy Valentine Saldanha, a young and talented musician from Mangalore with his team will provide music for the event. Roshan D’silva one of the ace compere in the GCC will host the event.

The collective opinion of the organizing committee is that, talents of Melwyn and many others should be nurtured and promoted on a larger platform. Normally these talents go unnoticed, due to the lack of resources and financial support. Hence, organizing this kind of event will help Melwyn and other talented local and Mangalorean artists to exhibit their talents by providing them a platform to perform. Hence, Vamanjooreans UAE are geared up to make this event memorable and successful by pooling together their collective efforts. This event would also enable them to serve the dual purpose of promoting cultural activities and artists and support their benevolent ventures in hand.

Mangaluru, May 22: An elderly cardiac patient from Dakshina Kannada, who was stranded in Saudi Arabia due to covid-19 lock-down, has finally reached his homeland thanks to the timely intervention by Humanity Forum Jubail and Indian Social Forum.

The elderly man hailing from Kadaba area of Dakshina Kannada was admitted to a hospital in Madinah. However, his condition continued to worsen due to lack of proper treatment. The efforts by his family members to bring him back home had not yielded results.

Meanwhile, one of the relatives of the patient, Ansari Suratkal, who happens to be a DKSC activist, brought the issue to the notice of the Karnataka unit of the Indian Social Forum in Dammam. ISF contacted Humanity Forum president Zakariya Jokatte, who helped the patient to speak directly union minister D V Sadananda Gowda in a video conference organised by coastaldigest.com.

Humanity Forum also persuaded the Indian Embassy to allow the stranded cardiac patient to fly back to India through Dammam-Bengaluru repatriation flight on May 20. 

However, it was not easy for the patient to travel from Madinah to Dammam International Airport due to lock-down and curfew. ISF not only obtained travel permission for him but also arranged vehicle. Jeddah and Riyadh units of ISF helped in obtaining permission letter in their respective places in spite of travel ban imposed by the police. Madinah unit of ISF arranged vehicle for transportation. Zakariya Jokatte bore the air ticket and other expenses of the patient.
