MoUs on Labour Signed with Labour Receiving Countries

India has signed Bilateral Agreements/ Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) on labour with Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Malaysia. Answering a question in Rajya Sabha today, Minister for Overseas Indian Affairs Shri Vayalar Ravi said, MoUs are implemented through the Joint Working Groups (JWG)) constituted for such purpose. The MoUs also provide the basis on which the Indian Missions abroad take up issues with the host country on a continuous basis and the joint Working Group (JWG) serves as a mechanism of reviewing the MoUs.
