    Stephen Mascarenhas yane "HEMACHARYA" is a well respected person and father of Daiji Dubai, Rang Mandir & Daijiworld weekly. My association is with Hemacharya right from the birth of Daiji Dubai and is a very sincere and dedicated person and I am sure we Kannadiga''s are losing a very good author, writer, speaker and a good organiser in Dubai. Dear Hemacharya Ji, on behalf of UAE Kannadiga''s my best wishes to you and family. GOD bless you forever.
