NDTV: The Indian nationals allegedly mistreated by an Indian company in Sri Lanka will return today with the Government making arrangements for their immediate travel from the Indian Community Welfare Fund (ICWF). “All the Indians will arrive tomorrow (Tuesday). Arrangements have been made by our Mission in Colombo for all the Indians involved in labour dispute with Indian company in Sri Lanka to travel,” the official spokesperson in External Affairs Minister Syed Akbaruddin said. He said the arrangements were made from ICWF. The labourers, mainly from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, were working with a South India-based company dealing in steel.
