NRI TDP Saudi Arabia organises Iftar for struggling workers in Riyadh labour camp

VIJAYAWADA: In a remarkable gesture of compassion during the holy month of Ramadan, the NRI TDP Saudi Arabia team organised a large Iftar service on Friday evening in Riyadh, serving food to nearly 1,000 workers living in a labour camp who have been facing severe hardships after not receiving salaries for more than a year due to ongoing legal issues involving their company. The humanitarian initiative was organised by NRI TDP KSA leaders Jani Basha Shaik and Rajasekhar Chennupati with the dedicated support of the NRI TDP Riyadh team. The effort was carried out under the guidance of NRI TDP Gulf Council President Radhakrishna Ravi and NRI TDP KSA President Khalid Saifulla. Speaking on the occasion, Khalid Saifulla said the initiative reflects the spirit of service and compassion that defines the holy month.

“Ramadan is a time of sharing, empathy and service to humanity. When we learned about the difficulties being faced by these workers, we felt it was our responsibility to stand by them and extend whatever support we could. Our team will continue to support distressed Indian workers in Saudi Arabia whenever such situations arise,” he said.

Radhakrishna Ravi said the NRI TDP network in the Gulf region remains committed to humanitarian causes and community service.

“Many migrant workers silently endure hardships while working abroad. During Ramadan, it is our moral duty to reach out to them with compassion and solidarity. This Iftar service is a small effort to bring relief and hope to those who are going through difficult times,” he said. The Iftar service brought much-needed relief and encouragement to the affected workers, many of whom have been living under challenging conditions for months.

Participants appreciated the timely support and expressed gratitude to the organisers for extending care and compassion during Ramadan, reinforcing the spirit of unity and service.
