New Delhi: India
Wednesday lifted a ban on emigration clearance for employment in
Libya.
The ministry of overseas Indian affairs imposed the ban in July
due to complaints of non-payment of salary to Indian workers by
their employers in the north African country.
"With the efforts of the ministry and the Indian mission in Libya,
outstanding salaries of Indian workers are being paid and the
workers are being sent back," said a statement from the ministry.
"Since the situation has improved, it has been decided to lift the
ban imposed on emigration clearance for Libya with immediate
effect," the ministry said.
Following complaints of non-payment of salary and violation of
contract conditions by employers in Libya and recruiting agents in
India, the ministry earlier decided that no emigration clearance
will be granted to Indian workers, including nurses, for
employment in that country.
