The Indian Embassy in UAE has issued an advisory for all Indian expats living in UAE. The embassy in the advisory warned the Indian expats against the fake circulars regarding repatriation that is being spread among the Indian community.
The circular issued by the Indian Mission urged the stranded Indian expats – visit visa holders, elders and jobless – to send their personal details to the missions.
“It has come to our notice that a message is being circulated on social media asking Indians stranded in the UAE to send their personal particulars to various email IDs of the Indian Embassy. Please note no such message has been sent by the embassy,” the Indian Embassy said.
