Government indifferent towards plights of Nepali workers in India, labour migration experts say

Nepali migrants in India continue to remain out of foreign labour policies and state coverage even though the labour migration history between the two countries is more than two centuries old.

Despite over two centuries of history, Nepali workers who migrate to India for work continue to be excluded from Nepal government's plans and policies, reflecting a discriminatory attitude against India-bound workers, stakeholders have pointed out.
