Indo-Saudi relation has witnessed upswing during past few decades, reinforcing economic and socio-cultural ties. Beside trade, investment and cultural ties, India enjoys a very special kind of relation with the strongest economy of the Gulf region. Currently, around 3 million plus strong Indian community are living and working in the Saudi Arabia, which is the largest expatriate community in the Kingdom, contributing around 30 per cent of the total expatriates of KSA. In last 10 years (barring 2016), India succeeded in deploying around 7.50 lakh Indian blue collar workers in GCC countries, out of them roughly 3 lakh arrived in KSA. So, there was a considerable growth in the outflow of Indian workers to the region. However, with the emergence of some new phenomena on the India’s side of policy makers since 2014, there has been a constant decline in the outflow of Indian blue collar workers, resulting nearly 50 percent downfall in last two years. This study strived to discover the causes of decline in India’s share of migrants’ employment in the Gulf nations in general and in KSA in particular, while bringing some very striking facts and figures that how this decline did not resemble in other countries which also send workers to the Gulf. Alongside this, the study also explored how and why foreign employers (FEs) were compelled not to hire workers from India but from Pakistan and Bangladesh. The result of the study demonstrated that when we observe India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh together in terms of their share of blue collar workers in KSA, we find that till 2014, India’s share in the oil-rich Saudi Arabia was on average 50 percent, for Pakistan it was 48 percent and for Bangladesh it was merely 2 percent. But, in 2016, within a period of 2 years, India’s share shockingly slumped down to 21 percent, while Pakistan and Bangladesh unexpectedly rose up to 60 and 19 percent respectively. Furthermore, this is not only in the case of Saudi Arabia. If we go country by country, we will find the same situation in almost whole Gulf region. In the end, the study suggests how the serious situation has surfaced on the fate of Indian migrant workers, and tries to fetch the government’s attention to take cognizance of this issue and act swiftly to resolve it as soon as possible for avoiding further downfall of Indian workers in oil-rich Gulf nations. The research is based on an analytical and investigative study of the data available on websites of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, which deal with overseas employment’s regulation and statistics. Moreover, to illustrate the argument with more clarity, a number of tables and charts have been drawn with lots of interesting figures. ]]>

The current human mobility in the world is higher than ever before in the modern history. Almost all of the approximately 200 nations in the world are either countries of origin, or destination for the migrants. As per the data of United Nations’ Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), the overall number of international migrants reached 244 million in 2015. This constitutes 3.3 % of world population, in other words, one out of every 30 persons in the world is currently a migrant who lives out of his/her home country. However, the South Asian countries have the biggest share in the global migration activity. According to the United Nations Population Division, till 2015 this region has exported 37 million emigrants around the world which is 15.11% of the overall number of international migrants. Among these South Asian countries, there are five major South Asia labor-sending nations which deploy on average over 2.5 million migrants as the data of last five years shows. Due to this influx of workers, the region also has emerged as the largest receiver of remittances. Worldwide, an estimated 582 billion U.S. dollars was sent by migrants to relatives in their home countries in 2015. Out of it, 118 billion received by this region from its emigrants around the world, which accounts 20.25% of global remittance. So, this region is increasingly becoming a remittance economy, and over last decade, it has been continuously on rise. This paper studies dynamics of expatriation and the role of remittance sent to the South Asian countries, mainly to India which has the biggest number of migrant workers in the all corners of the globe, that gives a handsome amount of remittance as a source of funds for economic development. despite its huge potential to contribute to economic growth, India has not yet fully maximized benefits from remittances. Furthermore, the study also discusses how and why India’s share of migrant labors is on a downfall trend since 2014. This study strives to discover the causes of this decline in India’s share of employment in the Gulf. Alongside this, the study also explored how and why foreign employers (FEs) in the Gulf were compelled not to hire workers from India but from Pakistan and Bangladesh in last two years.

The result of the study demonstrated that when we observe India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh together in terms of their share of blue collar workers in KSA, we find that till 2014, India’s share in the oil-rich Saudi Arabia was on average 50 percent, for Pakistan it was 48 percent and for Bangladesh it was merely 2 percent. But, in 2016, within a period of 2 years, India’s share shockingly slumped down to 21 percent, while Pakistan and Bangladesh unexpectedly rose up to 60 and 19 percent respectively. Furthermore, this is not only in the case of Saudi Arabia. If we go country by country, we will find the same situation in almost whole Gulf region. In the end, the study suggests how the serious situation has surfaced on the fate of Indian migrant workers, and tries to fetch the government’s attention to take cognizance of this issue and act swiftly to resolve it as soon as possible for avoiding further downfall of Indian workers in oil-rich Gulf nations. The research is based on an analytical and investigative study of the data available on websites of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, which deal with overseas employment’s regulation and statistics. Moreover, to illustrate the argument with more clarity, a number of tables and charts have been drawn with lots of interesting figures.
