Addressing a news conference, Joint Secretary in the Europe West division in the MEA Sandeep Chakravorty said, the agreement between the two countries provides “enhanced employment opportunities for 3,000 young Indian professionals annually, in return for India agreeing to take back any of its citizens who are living illegally in the UK,” Reuters reported. Chakravorty said that it was India’s “solemn duty” to take back Indian nationals who were undocumented, in distress abroad and were not being given nationality or residence permits. According to Britain, the deal is purposed to attract "the best and brightest, and supporting people coming to the UK through legal routes, while stopping the abuse of the system and speeding up the removal of those who have no right to be in the UK,” Reuters reported. On the extradition of Indian fugitives Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi, Chakravorty said that that PM Modi mentioned sending the economic offenders, who are awaiting trial, back to India at the earliest.
