Mangaluru, Apr 16: Sources say that like the daily wage earners of India, lacs of Indians working in the Gulf face the prospects of being sent back home. As per information, some companies have already asked their employees to return to their countries immediately after the airline operations resume.
Many are already struggling as they are not getting salaries and getting food is also turning out to be hard, it is said. Hotels, garages, automobiles, aviation, fitters, welders, plumbers are facing bad prospects. As companies are facing heavy losses, they have asked foreign workers to leave. The situation is ominous for several industrialists and businessmen too.
Many have raised loans to construct houses, and run businesses at hometown based on income from jobs abroad. Those who had returned home before the lockdown was announced are better placed now even though they too are worried about bleak prospects staring them in the eye.
