Instilling confidence into young minds and students Dr CN Manjunath, Director, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular sciences and Research, Bengaluru, advised them to avoid mobile phones.

“Mobile phone is one of the biggest hurdles to achieve the goals for younger generation. Even though mobile phone is a means of communication, the students are being addicted to this device,” he said suggesting a ban on mobile phone for students at least till they complete Class X.

He also warned against consumption of fast food. “Unscientific lifestyle and food habits have increased stress which in turn has resulted in the increase of cardiovascular diseases,” he lamented.

Former Indian cricketer Syed Mujtaba Hussain Kirmani, speaking on the occasion, applauded the service of TRF and said that the “real heroes are those who lift the underprivileged, deserving and needy”.

Calling upon the youth to work hard and constantly move towards their goals, he said: “There is a hero within every human being and we should recognise it.”

He also urged the youth not to ignore humanity and human values while perusing their goals. "Whatever your goals may be, it is important to be human being first,” he said adding that individuals should think broadly.

He said that people like Paralympic World Champion Malathi Holla and Tennis Player Prabhu, who are specially abled inspired not only special people but also others, with their yeoman service to humanity. They have come over their physical limitations to achieve great things in life, he added.

Babar Ali, said to be the youngest principal in the world, who started a school when he was just 16, was a centre of attraction in the event. Hailing from Murshidabad, one of the poorest districts of India located in West Bengal, he said that he love people of Karnataka too because they had helped him build a school.

He said that we should adopt good role models like Swami Vivekananda to be inspired by them. While calling upon the youth to work with commitment, dedication, he reminded them to cultivate love towards the less privileged and try to uplift them.

Syed Mohammed Beary, CMD, Bearys Group said that sacrifice is the other side of success. Leadership comes with clarity of mind, which comes with purity of heart.

IAS?Officer Mohammed Musharraf Ali Faruqui, Home of Hope, Bengaluru, Chairman T Raja and IISc, Bengaluru, Scientist, Shiva Kumar were present among others.

Remember social media memes of Chinese companies exporting #BoycottChina hats and t-shirts to India? This time India’s sensational and saffronite TV anchor Arnab Goswami vindicated those memes by hosting an anti-China debate show which was sponsored by Chinese companies!

While the last night's debate was all about boycotting Chinese products in the wake of massacre of over 20 Indian soldiers by their Chinese counterparts in eastern Ladakh, the show was brazenly promoting Chinese products through advertisement placements. 

During the debate, amongst the flashy headlines, there were two brand sponsorships that appeared: VIVO and Xiaomi. Both companies are giant Chinese multinational corporations. 

Twitter user Nirmala Tai, who was among those who spotted this irony, highlighted two instances during the debate where the logo of one of the brands popped up, and one where Xiaomi was found promoting the Mi 10. 

Many Twitterati used Goswami’s some of the favourite words such as ‘hypocrite’ and ‘anti-national’ to target him. They hit out at his channel for accepting sponsorship deals from Chinese brands at a time when anti-China sentiment is strong in the country.

Dubai, May 9: The wholehearted and collective effort of Karnataka NRI Forum, UAE and its president Mr. Praveen Shetty made it possible to have the first repatriation flight to Mangaluru – Karnataka from UAE. The Union Minister of India Mr. Sadananda Gowda tweeted on May 8th that the evacuation flight will fly from Dubai on May 12th with stranded citizen of India in UAE.

The whole world is under the impact of pandemic Covid 19. Government of India has announced the flights to repatriate its stranded citizens from all over the world. Sadly, the first batch of the announced flights had no mention of any flights from Gulf countries to Karnataka.

In Gulf countries, especially in UAE, thousands of Kannadigas are working for their livelihood. In this population major part is shared by coastal Karnataka people who belong to Mangalore, Udupi and other nearby districts. This lack of consideration of Mangaloreans for repatriation was made whole Kannadiga’s in deep sadness, where as many Kannadiga’s were waiting for flights to obtain urgent medical assistance and other medical support back in their home country.

Once after obtaining the news of not having flights to Karnataka from UAE, Mr. Praveen Shetty immediately actioned and wrote letter to concerned departments and ministers under the banner of KNRI. Mr. Praveen Shetty was in continuous follow up with Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka Dr. Ashwath Narayan, Mr C.T. Ravi Minister for Tourism of Karnataka, Union Minister of India Mr. Sadananda Gowda, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs (India) Mr. Pralhad Joshi, Minister of Railways of India (Minister of State) Mr. Suresh Angadi and officials of Aviation ministry along with other concerned departments.

The efforts have now given the result and finally the confirmation has been obtained from Mr. Sadananda Gowda about consideration of repatriation flights to Mangalore from Dubai on May 14th. It is expected that Aviation ministry will officially announce the flight arrangement and other operational information shortly.

Speaking to media, Mr. Praveen Shetty said, Karnataka NRI Forum is always committed to serve  Kannadigas and the collective effort of core committee members, ministers of Karnataka & Govt of India including the Aviation & other concerned ministries made possible the most important and much awaited flight to Mangalore from UAE to repatriate expats who are in need. I thank each and everyone who joined their hands to make this possible.

Mr. Praveen Shetty is a well-known businessman in UAE who manages Fortune Group of Hotels in UAE & Georgia. He selflessly given his 3-star hotel to UAE ministry to operate as Quarantine facility to people who are under observation with Covid 19. Also, he joined his hands with organizations in UAE who are extending their helping hand to needy people in UAE.

With the help of likeminded businessmen and professionals, the KNRI forum under the leadership of Mr. Praveen Shetty along with ‘Dubai Anivasi Kannadigaru’ started a helpline called “Kannadigas Helpline” through which they received around 3000 requests for food, medical, legal and other assistance. They aided many Covid infected people with quarantine and isolation by the help of Dubai Health Authority, Ministry of Health, Dubai Police and Consulate General of India under the guidelines of Dubai Govt.

Mr. Praveen Shetty expressed his gratitude to Dubai Health Authority, Ministry of Health, Dubai Police and Consulate General of India for their professional guidance and help to Kannadigas during the pandemic Covid 19 situation.
