Indian’s work logo for UAE celebration

Forty one years after he captured the historic event, a 75-year-old Indian has been propelled to stardom with his photo becoming the logo for UAE National Day celebrations. Ramesh Shukla happened to be the man at the right place at the right time as he captured the UAE rulers jointly hoisting the flag after signing the union agreement in 1971 which brought the seven Emirates into a union. The event took place at the Union House in Dubai and according to the Arabic language newspaper Emarat Al-Youm (UAE On Tuesday) his rare photograph has now been picked up as iconic theme for the event being commemorated as part of UAE National Day celebrations.
