UAE-based Indian driver wins Dh15 million in the Emirates Draw

UAE-based Indian driver wins Dh15 million in the Emirates Draw

 The EASY6 Grand Prize of Emirates Draw was won by an Indian driver in the UAE for Dh15 million.

Ajay Ogula, 31, has been employed at a jewellery store since he moved from his village in southern India to the UAE. He felt responsible for providing for his family, which includes an aging mother and two younger siblings who live in a run-down, leased home.

"You keep wasting money here and there, so why not utilize it instead on a chance like this," my supervisor asked in response when I mentioned reading about someone winning a big sum with Emirates Draw, according to Ogula.

Ogula downloaded the Emirates Draw mobile app on the recommendation of his work and bought two tickets for his initial participation in Emirates Draw EASY6.

I was out with my friend when I got the email of congratulations. I initially assumed that the winning amount would be less, but as I read, the zeros kept stacking up, and when I discovered the total, I nearly passed out.

Ogula initially intends to bring his family to Dubai, after which he intends to construct a home for them in their village and establish a construction business to enable him to become financially independent.

The managing partner of Emirates Draw, Mohammad Behroozian Alawadhi, said: "Congratulations to our Grand Prize winner, Ajay Ogula, on his outstanding victory. Emirates Draw's mission has always been to improve people's lives, and this will always be at the core of all we do. It is not just about numbers and winners.

"Our entire team is thrilled for Ajay Ogula, and we are convinced that this victory will significantly improve both his life and the lives of everyone around him," he continued. Through our weekly rewards and our Coral Reef Restoration Program, which was created in keeping with the UAE government's objective of sustainability, we will continue to fulfill our mission of giving back to the community.

In the meantime, Paula Leech, a 50-year-old British woman, took up Dh77,777 in the most recent Emirates Draw MEGA7 raffle draw. The mother-of-three has worked in human resources for almost 14 years and is based in the UAE. She declared, "This victory will serve as my retirement fund."

A single individual or group of persons who match all seven numbers from the right might win the Dh160 million Grand Prize of the Emirates Draw MEGA7.

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

North Korea Celebrates 'New Era of a Space Power' after Satellite Launch
