India said on Saturday there is no cause for worrying over potential job losses among Indians employed in the Gulf following the multi-billion-dollar debt default risk faced by Dubai World, reported the Indo-Asian News Service.
Indian Minister for Overseas Indian affairs Vayalar Ravi said he has feedback from Indian consulate general in Dubai and Indian embassies in the region.
"We are not expecting any kind of exodus of Indian workers to India," he was quoted as saying.
The minister also said there was some impact in the Gulf region at the beginning of the meltdown last year but the situation had changed since
then.
About 100,000 Indian workers had returned from Dubai at that time. But many of them have gone back, the minister pointed out.
