India has said that it has not imposed any restrictions on Indians migrating to the Gulf countries, except for issuing a advisory against travelling to Yemen.
"It was done in view of the security situation in Yemen," General V.K. Singh (Retd), India's junior Foreign Minister, informed the Parliament Thursday.
India had in April 2015 evacuated over 6,500 people, including foreign nationals, from war-torn Yemen in a special operation, titled Operation Raahat, and also shut down its Embassy there.
The Minister said that the government is keenly watching the situation in some Gulf countries where economic downturn resulted in job losses to Indians.
"We are working in close coordination with the governments in these states towards extending all possible assistance to Indian nationals abroad," he said.
