Saudi government is looking for the family of this woman in Bengaluru
What did this woman do in Saudi 100 years ago?
Bengaluru: Would not it be surprising if a woman donor from Bangalore had set up a girls' school in Mecca, Saudi Arabia about a hundred years ago? But this is true.
Even Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy was surprised when Saudi Arabia's Ambassador in India Saud Mohammad Al-Sati informed this matter to the CM. The Ambassadors said that the Saudi government wanted to honor the family members of Saulatunnisa, who established the school in Mecca.
State Haj Committee Chairman and former Minister Roshan Baig said that the state government would try to find out the family of SaulatUnnisa.
"These days, Haj or Umrah pilgrims can reach their destination in only five and a half hours. However, earlier, it used to take 15 days to reach Mecca from Bombay through ship. In those days this woman has contributed. It is really appreciable, " Baig added.

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
