First of Good morning to all the members of Mitery Club.
Facing countless very difficult situations, poor condition of my family on the way to find solution, I decided to bring myself Qatar for certain period of time to make certain money to help my family.
I was a student at the time. I applied visa for the post of storekeeper through one of my relative in Qatar. After waiting about 6 months he sent visa for me. I was very happy when I got it, my family prepared me to leave for Doha. On 2006 I left for Qatar leaving my family and beautiful motherland with lots of sweet dreams and hopes.
The man who sent me visa had come to received me in the airport. He took me to the company accommodation on the same day. From the next day I joined my duty. I was here to work as a storekeeper as I signed in the contract and told by my relative. But when I joined my duty the company foreman asked me to work as a labour. I had no any option accept to follow him. So I continued my duty as a labour. As the days were passing later after few months the foreman compelled us (all the workers) to work 12 / 13 hrs per day without overtime pay. The duty hour was irregular. The company management also used to do partiality among the workers. They never treated us as a human being. I was not paid monthly salary on time which was 500 QR. They used to give not only physical but also mentally harassment. So I was mentally very sad and tired rather then physically. There was no way I could do so one day I escaped from the company.
I left the company but I was unknown where to go and how to survive. I was wandering here and there in the street in search of (food and water) help if anybody could help me. I had no food and water for several days. I begged help to some Nepali friends; they collected some money and food for me. In this way hardly I passed one month.
One morning I read news in Rajdhani Saptahik (Nepali Weekly Magazine). It was written that there’s a Shelter House for abandoned people run by Mitery Club named Mitery Kunja. As soon as I read it I contacted to the number given in the news . Somebody received the call I asked him about the detail information
