    People like Satish Amin, Kote Road, Udupi, Akash Salian, Mangalore/Dubai wants to attend free programs. They do not wish to contribute towards community welfare. People like them are a thorn to society who do not allow even others to help our society.

    All is not WELL in Billawa community in UAE.The only suggestion to the Billawa members do not boycot the event, just attend both the events (if its only for FREE) and enjoy as if you are attending neighbours wedding function!!!. Don't give any importance to the event... if you happend to meet the BIG president just praise his efforts... so that he will pump some more his personal money for the next event, which will benefit for all the attendees who plan to attend the next functions.

    I think Billawas Dubai has become very popular and it has helped several hundred students to continue their education. BDNE has also helped several lacs of rupees towards medical treatment of poor patients in our native place. Those who attended their Scholarship Distribution function on 16/08/09 at Gokarnatheshwar Temple Mangalore saw themselves. So, instead of supporting Billawas Dubai, few people are spitting venom against them for obvious reasons. You know the story of fox and the grapes, that's it.

    Mr. Sanil Brs. Dxb /Kallianpur, U r right, Billawas Dubai have earned name and fame from their deeds i.e. to help the poor people of the community in Karnataka. They have helped even from other communities. Name and fame if on merit is a noble thing. It is not a good thing when certain people claim that they are doing this and that while doing nothing. I am sure U belong to the latter class. People have already recognised BDNE as an excellent team - they are going ahead with their achievements despite people like U! Wake up man, wake up.

    This is in response to Mr. Mahesh Sanil's comments. First of all, what makes you to think that BDNE is to serve some individuals here. The community members know very well the amount of monetary assistance given to poor students, medical cases etc. I am sure U belong to the group which could not hold their annual functions since last 2 years and now this group is not in a position even to get up and walk! Right?

    I have been attending each and every function of BDNE and am very proud to say that this is one Billawa Sangha which has done so much for the community people backhome. I don't think any other billawa sangha in abroad has done so much. So, who are shedding these crocodile tears over disunity ?- some vested interests. BDNE have evidence to show facts and figures of charity work undertaken. It is a fact. I think the people who cannot digest the success of BDNE have expressed their hatred towards BDNE. Long Live BDNE and their selfless service to the community!

    Dear Sir, I've been in Dubai for the last 8 yrs and been attending the functions organised by BDNE for last 4 yrs with out fail. Also functions of other communities. I've seen personally the efforts put for in by the community members towards the charity work and to raise the funds. Yes, there are 2 groups, which is not good. But who made it ? If they are like minded, should come forward and join the team without any obligations. It's easy for you to comment on others. Then u say u are proud billawa. But that proudness should be shown in your work. Tell how many of you have helped fellow billawas ?? First pls understand, charity begins at home. if somebody is doing any help, in so ever manner, let them do it. Rather supporting them, people create obstacle or hurdles... Common pls grow up.

    I think we should salute these Billawa Union leaderes for trying to divide the community for the sake of personal interests...For the sake of getting name and fame these people will go to any extent!!!. I remember attending one Billawa event, the organisers go on calling name of the the Presedent & his wife's name n number times, i was just wondering whether i was attending Billawa Union function or Private function of the Billawa President!!!. Guys wake up!!! get some tips from Bunts or Catholic unions how to keep the community UNITED!!!

    I think every Billawa has forgotten the NARAYAN GURU's saying "One Jati(Caste) One Religion, One God for Man" but I see everthing is TWO.Why??
    because of personal difference or ego clash etc.....
    Why can't we unite????
    We have learnt in our childhood days UNITY IS POWER.Is it so here????
    I am proud to be a BILLAWA,but I do not like the billawas who for their own personal benefits divide the caste,regilion into TWO groups.

    Difference in opinion is there everywhere especially where the class volume is subsequent. People will unite under one Strong Leadership forgetting their differences provided the Leader is having a commanding Personality in view of his Uniting Power and Diplomacy. Leader who doesnt have a clear vision for the community but goes with the words of envy will perish and divide the Group !!
    Gentlemen , before putting down your words just think once so that the energy and spirit of the people may not diminish . It is the Sunrise for all Billawas that the people are getting the things right . This Giant Social Power will Grow Gigantic to its right dimensions very soon . The mistakes of yesterday will be the stepping stone for their bright and successful tomorrow ..

    I would like to introduce me as 'non-billava', respect spiritual GURU who rendered life for cascading historical message 'one cast, one religion and one god' that succeeded to have diplomatic society. But I regret to stress that not only Billavas but other community also accepted historical message. So guys like me not willing to go through unhealthy and unproductive clashes within community, hope it is the time to respect and put effort to implement historical message in our life. Feel proud to be an Indian, don’t waste productive time to organising clashes within community.

    "Billawas Dubai & Northern Emirates is the only registered association for all billwas in the region is in the news not only in the Gulf but back home in Mangalore" which provoked me to extend my feelings here that, first of all this is registered under the umbrella of "Sharjah Social Centre" to serve the purpose of some individuals not all billawas in the region.When the chariry works takes place registered or non registered least bothered only the good deeds are considered. Let us clean our soul and mind to be proud billawas of this region and back home to serve the needy humanbeings arround us. Please some correction / edit required here as GURU's photo to be placed on the top for the respect what he is done for all the community and what we preaches among us.Message is very clear.
    Thanks for the readers.

    Well said Mr. Dayanand, these unions are not Billawa unions anymore, these are Indvidual unions. My only suggestion to both the so called UNIONS to exclude the name of Billawa and add your peronal name and run the show. Request both the group not create political atmosphere among the Billawas... You have extra money celebrate but don,t try to break the Billawa unity that too in outside India...

    Two unions? Even here we dont have unity. We will never be better then the rest of the communities because of ego, greed and hunger for fame. If people were really interested in developing teh communit they would be selfless and join hands.

    I fully agree with Mr. Bangera. Its people like Mr. Bangera who made Billava community proud by representing UAE cricket team and not these so called Billawa Union office bearers. I have lived in Dubai for 10 years and these 2-3 Unions is SHAME on Billavas. In such a small place with so little Billava community if there is no unity what can we expect when it comes to entire India with 1.53 Billion population with hundres of religion, cast and groups. These so called Billava office bearers thinks they are the only handful of Billavas in Dubai with brains and rest all are fools. As Ms. Malathi rightly said in her comment what the hell of a difference its going to make if the Union is registered or not. I am also a Chartered Accountant but not sure what kind of Registration you are talking about when it comes to entity's such as yours in Middle East. Plz dont insult Great Social reformer and Spiritual Guru of Billavas who taught us ONE CAST, ONE RELIGION, ONE GOD FOR MANKIND. We have 2-3 Billava Unions for few hundreds of Billavas living in UAE

    Everything you all ( both organisations ) doing great in Dubai. My message is why there is Two Billawa Organisation in Dubai / why 2 Billawa Team gather superate to celebrate. Is this organisations belongs to Individuals or they have vested interest. If you all keeping Narayana guru infront and doing this, my personal view is you all wrong ( This applies also for 2 Groups in India ). Here All Billawas knows, what is Guru's message. Other option is you all can gather as per your town ( Mangalore / Surathkal / Mulky / Padubidri / udupi etc ). That is more sensible and no one can question, if you all having N number of Team. This is only my view.
