Indian expats take home Rs 21L each in Mahzooz draw

Indian expats take home Rs 21L each in Mahzooz draw

 In the 88th Mahzooz weekly draw in Dubai, three Indian expatriates living in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) took home the top prize of 100,000 Dirham (Rs 21,66,249).

During the live weekly drawing on Saturday, August 6, Binu Gopalakrishnan, Sathish Kumar Palli, and Mohamed Taher Nakash were the winners. They matched five of the six winning numbers.

Since learning about Mahzooz from his coworkers, 46-year-old Binu Gopalakrishnan, who has lived in the UAE for the past 16 years, has been participating in the weekly draw once or twice a month.

"I have no idea how to describe how grateful I am for this surprise award. I have never before in my life won anything, save for this. I'd want to thank my coworkers for introducing me to Mahzooz," Binu told Khaleej Times.

Sathish Kumar Palli, 31, a private company's administrative assistant who has lived in the UAE for 11 years, was startled when his supervisor informed him that he had won. He has not yet made a decision about what to do with his winnings since he is still trying to come to terms with his victory.

Ewings, the company that runs Mahzooz, said that two winners from India and the Philippines split the top prize of 10 million Dirhams (Rs 21,66,05,362) evenly after selecting five of the five winning numbers (7-9-17-19-21). Following the conclusion of the required documentation and the verification procedure, details will soon be made public, according to a statement released by Ewings on Thursday.

On Saturday, August 13 at 9 p.m. UAE time, the next draw for 10 million Dirhams (Rs 21,66,05,362) will be televised live (10:30 pm IST). By logging onto the app or website, one may take part in both the Mahzooz mega draw and the raffle draw.

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil
