Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take swift measures to safeguard Kannadigas and other Indian nationals affected by escalating tensions in the Middle East region.
In a letter to PM Modi, Siddaramaiah expressed concern over the impact of recent airspace restrictions and NOTAMs issued by multiple West Asian countries, which have disrupted international flight operations.
He noted that these developments have left a large number of Kannadigas and other Indians stranded, particularly at major transit hubs such as the UAE (Dubai).
The Chief Minister suggested five key measures for the Government of India to consider, including strengthened diplomatic outreach, repatriation preparedness framework, dedicated national coordination mechanism, integrated registration and information system, and passenger protection protocols.
Siddaramaiah assured that the Government of Karnataka will cooperate fully in all efforts undertaken in this regard.
