Jharkhand youth jailed in UAE, family seeks help
A youth from Jharkhand is in jail in the UAE after leaving his job without telling the company, his father Lalan Paswan says. The family says he was also trapped after paying an agent to return home, and they are asking the government to help bring him back.
ContextContext: Many Indians work in Gulf countries such as the UAE on contract jobs. Workers usually need to follow the employer's exit process, and leaving without notice can lead to legal trouble, so families often turn to Indian missions abroad for help.
