Indian mission in United Arab Emirates to help COVID-19-hit expats

The Indian Embassy in the United Arab Emirates is trying to provide alternative places where expats at shared accommodations can move to if they test positive for COVID-19, Ambassador Pavan Kapoor said. “We are trying to work with the Department of Health to see how we can create some facilities to help Indians who are living in clusters move out if any of them is found positive (for COVID-19), so that the spread of the disease is controlled,” the Khaleej Times reported on Saturday citing Kapoor as saying. The embassy has been taking care of expats who do not have access to food and medicines amid the pandemic situation. (IANS)
