EMIGRANTS FROM INDIA






 Bureau of Immigration, MHA maintains departure and arrival data of Indians. State-wise data is not available. Some of the Indian nationals travelling abroad settle down in their country of employment. The Government perceives the reality of a global workplace, especially 1 in an era of knowledge economy. It has, in parallel, brought about a transformational change in its engagement with Indian diaspora. A successful, prosperous, and influential diaspora is an asset for India. The Government’s efforts are also aimed at harnessing the diaspora potential to its fullest including through sharing of knowledge and expertise.
Bilateral discussions have been held with concerned UAE authorities regarding ease of travel of Indians to the UAE.
