The quote highlights a critical human rights issue involving Indian workers abroad. Many migrant workers face exploitation, unfair treatment, and hazardous living and working conditions, often with little oversight or accountability. This situation calls for urgent reforms in migrant labor policies and stronger protections for workers. It also underscores the broader challenges of economic migration, where vulnerable populations seek better livelihoods but encounter unexpected hardships and abuses. Addressing these issues requires collaborative efforts from governments, international organizations, and civil society to ensure safer, fairer working environments for all migrant workers.
