Building a Wider
Horizon With Labour
Minister of State for External Affairs Gen (Retired) V K Singh on Wednesday announced that the government of Saudi Arabia has promised free passage and humanitarian support to Indian workers affected by widespread lay-offs. Gen. Singh, who was sent by the Indian government to Saudi Arabia for "assessment" at the behest of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, said the issue was limited to one company that has violated Saudi laws, even as reports suggest that the first batch of Indians could return from the Gulf state by this weekend.
