Policy to deny entry to unjabbed workers is discriminatory, rights groups say Kathmandu Post
Kathmandu, July 12 Nepali migrant rights activists and organisations have slammed labour destination countries for barring entry to unvaccinated Nepalis workers, calling it a violation of their human rights.
Recent rules imposed by labour-importing countries in the Persian Gulf, Malaysia and others have made entry difficult for unvaccinated Nepali migrants and deprived them of taking up overseas jobs.
According to migrant rights groups and activists, such restrictions amount to discrimination and will have significant financial and social impacts on thousands of women and men planning to migrate for employment to the Gulf or those who have come home on leave.
