GEFONT’s serious doubt towards agreement to send caregiver workers to Israel

The government has been heavily criticised after its decision to send 2,000 caregiver workers to the conflict-torn country of Israel. 

In a recent meeting between the Minister of Labour, Employment and Social Security Sharat Singh Bhandari and the Israeli Ambassador to Nepal Hanan Goder Goldberger, an agreement was reached to increase the number of Nepali caregivers.

The government opened applications for 800 people last June, but after the formation of the new government, it has been agreed that this number may be increased to 2,000. GEFONT has drawn serious attention to this agreement. 

It has also requested to immediately withdraw the decision to send its citizens to war-torn areas in the name of foreign labour. Bipin Joshi, a Nepalese citizen who went missing in the Israel-Palestine conflict, has not been found yet.
