    As per article surprised to see being a mechanical engineer and with work experience he was trying only on Branches of his past working company, There are plenty of opportunity/companies in this world which surprisingly he might have not even tried.

    @Dev Kumar: it is sad that a young life ended in a sad way. Can he find a job in India when millions are seeking jobs and farmers committing suicide? A certain party came to power with promises of 15 lacs, creating crores of jobs within a year but it is busy with world tours, yoga day, beef politics instead of solving the problems that youth faces.

    Rip young man..
    Brother Rudolf,
    I could have clicked 'agree' 1000 times if possible.. IT'S DAMN FACT EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW. INDIAN COMPANIES ARE MOST HATED BY NRI'S or Its employees. A TYPICAL INDIAN ATTITUDE EXPOSE HERE...
    Better work as a slave for ARAB then engineer in INDIAN companies.

    I Partly agree with you....Yes working for Indian COMPANIES ARE MOST HATED BY NRI'S but working with Indian is also same as our fellow Indians will try to back stab or make any conspiracy against fellow Indians in the office is normal...So I also hate to work with majority of Indian colleagues.

    loosing finger or job should not be a reason for suicide. because he is an educated, technical engineer. he would have had many other opportunities. however, sad to know,
    RIP
    But my fellow citizens of India, do not believe any Indian owned companies in Gulf. we Indians never change our attitudes as indians even we are settled on foreign soil. if there was a good and human intention the management could have thought the reality that one finger cannot disable his 100% activity and one finger cannot eliminate his education, experience nor his future.
    this is only our dirty indian's mentality never consider other' pain. selfish, crooked and ill-treated attitude.
    it is better to go to an Arab's kitchen to cut vegetables rather that serving our own companies abroad.
    I write this boldly because I served more than half of my life abroad and having very bad experience in serving indians and pleasure in serving Arabs, Americans, Germans, Italians etc etc.
    but.....our greed and need attracts indians to this kind of situation and eventually results as above.
    niether Modi nor any Govt will improve India. Only the creator should come and save us.
    let us pray for this disaster.

    You are absolutely right.
    Except for very few Indians who are very helpful, all of us have the same dirty blood of corruption and selfishness, with no end in sight.
    It holds good for both for Indians in India or Indians in foreign countries.
    Indians have greed that is none like others.

    I feel very sorry for this person. May his soul rest in peace.

    A PERSON WHO DIDN'T HAD HANDS AND LEGS NICK VUJICIC OF AUSTRALIA CAN SWIM, CAN PLAY FOOT BALL AND CAN EARN FOR HIMSELF YOUR'S FINGERS ONLY WERE LOST YOU SHOULD HAVE STRUGGLED IN LIFE TO COME UP.

    FOR OTHERS:

    SEE THIS YOU TUBE: Never give up by Nick Vujicic.

    FACE LIFE NATURALLY GIVEN BIRTH AND NATURALLY THE DEATH SHOULD BE.

    Felix..Here young engineer lost job due to accident. As company assured job in there sister concern in India is not fulfilled. It looks like is an reputed firm having branches all over. In this world all are engaged with one another for there livlihood in one or other way. Every year how many new engineers are introduced to the market. Trend goes on. Never stops.

    For each death there need certain reason. You can call it cowardly or daring act. Without his knowledge nothing is going to happen in this world. Preaching to you and other's by myself and modiji is also one of part of it..if you believe completely Almighty.
