Why India Must Act to Prevent the Human Cost of 2034 FIFA World Cup in Saudi Arabia
There is ample evidence of serious labour and human rights violations faced by migrant workers in Saudi Arabia.
Excellent piece by @usmanjawed.bsky.social on the responsibility of the Indian government to work with its partners in the GCC to protect the rights and interests of its #MigrantWorkers!

Important piece by @usmanjawed.bsky.social for @thewire.in - "the countries that provide the labour to the Gulf states... must be the ones that press for their protection– we cannot and should not rely on western NGOs and the international media to protect Indian workers."

Why India Must Act to Prevent the Human Cost of 2034 FIFA World Cup in Saudi Arabia
There is ample evidence of serious labour and human rights violations faced by migrant workers in Saudi Arabia.
The scale of construction required to host the tournament, coupled with Saudi's abusive labour regime means the World Cup will claim the lives of thousands of Indian workers. This is an avoidable tragedy unfolding before our eyes.
Can India protect its workers?
