Dear UP CM, Your State's Youth Immigrate to Israel Out of Necessity, Not Choice

The Quint  

The NSDC is a public-private partnership company, created in 2008 under India's Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. Launched in 2014, eMigrate aims to protect Indian workers abroad by mandating insurance and ensuring monitoring by Indian embassies and consulates in labour destination countries. Workers migrating through the eMigrate system are required to subscribe to the Pravasi Bharatiya Bhima Yojana, a mandatory insurance scheme that provides coverage of Rs 10 lakh in case of accidental death or permanent disability. Enrolment in eMigrate is mandatory only for workers heading to countries on the Emigration Check Required list, which includes nations with security risks or problematic labour laws. While Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Yemen are considered high-security risk areas, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Oman, Qatar, Sudan, Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia are primarily criticised for having unfavourable labour laws.
