HYDERABAD: The body of a 48-year-old worker, Chinnolla Narsaiah from Nizamabad, who suffered a heart attack and died in Oman was brought to the city on Wednesday. Narsaiah’s body was later taken to his native village Vempalli of Muipkal in Nizamabad.
According to social worker Muralidhar Reddy Gangula, the state government provided transport for taking the body to the village from the airport. Narsaiah had worked in Dubai for 15 years and was working in Oman for the past five years with an international projects company. He died on January 14, 2022.
While the body was transported to India with help from Nizamabad MP D Aravind and the Indian embassy in Muscat, Gulf JAC representative and social activist Muralidhar Reddy Gangula also urged the embassy to see that the deceased worker’s salary dues and other benefits are released by the company he was working for.
Narsaiah is survived by his mother, wife, a 15-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son.
“There are companies which evade salary dues to the family of the deceased. This should not happen in the case of Narsaiah and we have written to the embassy about it,” Swadesh Parikipandla, president of Pravasi Mitra Labour Union and Muralidhar Reddy Gangula said.
