ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS (SHRI KIRTI VARDHAN SINGH)

(a) The attention of Government was drawn to several incidents of Indian   nationals   being   lured   to   Iran   on   false   promises   of employment or with assurances of onward transit to third countries. These individuals were tricked into journeying to Iran by taking advantage of the visa waiver facility available for ordinary Indian passport holders. On arrival in Iran, many of them were kidnapped for   ransom.   The   Government   of   the   Islamic   Republic   of   Iran accordingly suspended the visa waiver facility available to ordinary Indian passport holders visiting Iran with effect from 17 November 2025. This measure is intended to prevent further misuse of the facility by criminal elements.

(b) The available year-wise data on Indian nationals kidnapped in Iran after being defrauded is as follows:2021 - Nil 2022 - Nil 2023 - Nil 2024 - 13

2025 - 36

(c) Available information on instances of fraud and trafficking of Indian citizens reported from other countries, year and country-wise since 2014 is given in Annexure-1.

Government accords utmost priority to the safety, security and wellbeing of Indian nationals proceeding for employment abroad. As per The   Emigration   Act   1983,   no   person/agency   can   function   as Recruiting   Agent   (RA)   without   a   valid   license   issued   by   the Registering   Authority.   Mandatory   registration   of   RA   is   aimed   to reduce   fraud   and   exploitation   of   prospective   Indian   emigrants proceeding for employment abroad. It is also mandatory for ECR passport   holders   proceeding   for   employment   to   any   of   the   19 notified   Emigration   Check   Required   (ECR)   countries   to   obtain Emigration   Clearance   (EC)   from   the   office   of   the   Protector   of Emigrants (POE).

As and when complaints against the illegal agents/dubious firms luring Indian workers in false recruitment offers are received, such matters   are   referred   to   the   State   police   for   investigation   and prosecution under the relevant legal provisions of the Bharatiya

Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and other legislation in place including the ones enacted by some of the State Governments.

Ministry   also   issues   advisories   through   eMigrate   portal,   social media handles and other modes of publicity about the perils of fake job rackets and ways to prevent the same. Till January 2026, a total of 3,505 unregistered agents in country have been notified on the eMigrate   portal.   The   awareness   campaign   on   safe   and   legal migration through eMigrate portal is carried out by the Ministry across the country from time to time by conducting workshops, training sessions, information sessions, digital campaigns for media groups,   police   officials   and   law   enforcement   agencies,   local administration,   aspiring   recruiting   agents,   entrepreneurs   and general   public.   During   these   sessions   awareness   on   emigration regulations, schemes beneficial for emigrants like Pravasi Bharatiya Bima Yojana (PBBY), Pre-Departure Orientation   Training   (PDOT), eMigrate portal and various advisories issued by Indian Embassies are brought to the notice of all stakeholders including job seekers, and they are advised to verify all antecedents of Recruiting Agents before accepting any kind of employment offer and not be enticed and entrapped in the fraudulent job offers.

There are established channels to reach out to the Embassy/Consulate in case they need any assistance. They can contact the Embassy/Consulate through walk-in, email, multilingual 24x7 emergency numbers, WhatsApp number, grievance redressal portal   like   MADAD/CPGRAMS/eMigrate,   and   social   media   etc. Dedicated Labour Wings for handling such matters are there in Indian Missions/Posts abroad, where there are a sizable number of Indian emigrant workers. Pravasi Bharatiya Sahayata Kendras have also been set up in key locations such as New Delhi, Dubai, Riyadh and  Jeddah   to   provide   guidance   and   counselling   to   the   Indian workers. Indian Missions/Posts regularly organize Open Houses and Consular Camps   in   remote   areas   to   get   feedback   from   Indian   workers residing in such areas and to address their grievances, if any. On receipt of complaint from or on behalf of the emigrant, the same is taken up proactively with concerned Foreign Employer (FE) and the work place of the aggrieved worker is also visited, if required. The complaints pertaining to employment issues are also taken up with the local labour department and other relevant authorities of the host country for prompt redressal.
