Bahrain Bids Farewell To Business Luminary Baboo Kewalram
The Kingdom of Bahrain is mourning the loss of Baboo Haridas Kewalram, the esteemed chairman of Kewalram & Sons Co WLL, who passed away on Thursday. A pillar of Bahrain's business community, Baboo Kewalram's legacy is deeply intertwined with the Kingdom's economic and social fabric. The Kewalram family's association with Bahrain began in 1888 when Damordardas Kewalram arrived to engage in the pearling industry. His son, Haridas, later expanded the family's ventures into foodstuffs and textiles, establishing the first Kewalram & Sons outlet in Manama's souq. In 1955, a young Baboo Kewalram joined the family business, contributing significantly to its diversification into sectors such as jewellery, electronics, and real estate. Beyond his business acumen, Baboo Kewalram was a dedicated community leader. He played a pivotal role in founding the Indian Community Relief Fund, serving as its vice chairman, and chaired the committee overseeing the 200-year-old Shri Krishna Hindu temple in Manama for over three decades. His commitment to fostering Bahrain-India relations was evident through his involvement in organizations like the Bhatia Mitra Mandal, established in 1959 to support the Bhatia community in Bahrain. The Kewalram family's close ties with Bahrain's Royal Family are well-documented. Baboo Kewalram used to fondly recall instances when the late Amir, HM Shaikh Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa, would inquire about their well-being during his majlis. Baboo Kewalram's passing is a profound loss to both the business community and the myriad individuals whose lives he touched through his philanthropic endeavours. His legacy of integrity, dedication, and community service will continue to inspire future generations in Bahrain and beyond.
