Ashwith Kumar Uppala-the ‘IMMUNO MAN’!
Mangaluru: COVID-19 and Lockdown has made big changes in the lifestyle of the people. Not only this, but it has also given the opportunity for those who want to help others. Immuno man Ashwith Uppala is from Uppala and settled in Mangaluru with his business. He never thought he would get this opportunity to serve the people in large numbers along with his friends.
In the month of March, when the lockdown was announced suddenly, people rushed to the shops to buy essentials. Same time Ashwith noticed an elderly woman in Mangaluru standing near a shop to buy food grains. But as the lockdown was announced suddenly, she did not have enough cash with her. When Ashwith came to know, he told the woman to purchase the required food grains and paid for it. After that, he went to his office and thought to himself that there could be many people like this woman, during this time who are in need of help. He called all his friends and discussed collectively to do something during this pandemic.
They all agreed and supported Ashwith. He called a rice mill owner and requested him to supply rice in large quantities. He received more quantity than he ordered. People came forward to help and packed the food grains in a Temple in Bikarnakatta, Mangaluru. They all started distributing the same in and around Bikarnakatta. People from other areas came to know about this and supported Ashwith and his team. In this way, his work spread in Udupi, DK and Kasargod districts to the people of all communities and religions.
Ashwith, who is a strong believer of Sadguru Nithyananda Swamiji of Vajreshwari, is a Director of Vajri Tech Private Limited., Mangaluru which has been established a couple of years ago along with his friends. This team including one of the directors of his Company along with Yajnesh Karkera, Jithin, RJ Rashmi Ullal, Advocate Shivaprasad Shetty, Chetan Shetty, Pavan Rakesh, Panduraga Vital Bhajana Mandir members, Ratan Kumar Hosangadi Manjeshwar and others distributed food and food grains to thousands of people in the three districts.
Ashwith himself took many Coronavirus patients in his car to get them admitted to the hospital. This team distributed Kashaya (Kaada) and drinking water to more than 2000 police personnel on duty, to keep their immunity strong. Ashwith and his teamwork have also been identified by many TV, Print and Web media. This team has worked continuously for more than a month to help people during the lockdown. An MBA graduate and Industrialist Ashwith Uppala, who is very well aware of the difficulties of helpless people is an example to the present youth.
