In line with the possible evacuation of Indian Nationals due to the coronavirus outbreak, the Indian Embassy issued a data collection form for repatriation.
The embassy highlighted that the purpose of the form is only for the collection of information in respect of those who want to return to India under compelling circumstances on a payment basis.
So far no decision has been taken with regards to the resumption of flights to India. As and when a decision is taken, the Embassy of India will make an announcement. The form is to be filled for a single individual at a time and for the addition of details of family members, those interested will have to fill the form again for each member.
Meanwhile, the government of India is putting final touches to a plan to evacuate over 400,000 Indians in GCC. The phased evacuation of close to half a million Indians could be the world’s largest evacuation of civilian nationals.
