Chandigarh, 7 August
Punjab Cabinet Minister Sh.Sanjeev Arora said It was brought to my attention through my WhatsApp number by four Punjabi youths from Hoshiarpur District, who have been stranded in Iraq for the past approximately six months. They were facing mistreatment and expressed a strong desire to return to India due to concerns for their safety and well-being.
In this connection, Cabinet Minister Sh. Sanjeev Arora took keen interest to help Punjabi youth and requested Union Cabinet Minister Sh. S.Jaishankar and Indian Embassy in Iraq for making arrangements to bring back four Indian citizens stranded in Iraq.
He further informed that four Indian citizens namely Gurpreet Singh, Avtar Singh, Surjeet Singh and Amarjit Singh are returning today back to India from Iraq.
