Kuwait Sees Significant Drop in Indian Workers From 2015 to 2017

In Kuwait, the number of Indian workers has come down from 70,765 in 2015 to 38,871 in 2017.

Though the number of Indian workers earning their livelihood in Kuwait has seen a significant drop between 2015 and 2017, there is no such scale down in other Gulf countries.

Answering a question about the declining number of Indian workers in the Gulf in the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Parliament), VK Singh, Indian Minister of State for External Affairs, said, “As per the information received from the Indian Missions in these countries, the number of Indian workers in the Gulf countries has gone up in the year 2017 compared to the corresponding numbers in 2015 except Kuwait, where the number has come down.”
