Acknowledgements
Mr. V.R. Krishna Iyer, Former Justice, Supreme Court of India
The Preface for ‘Indo-Gulf Reparation Mechanisms’ is written by Mr. V.R. Krishna Iyer, Former Justice, Supreme Court of India. The petitioner acknowledges with gratitude Mr. V.R. Krishna Iyer, a person who needs no introduction. We respectfully repeat the Supreme Court of India's comment on him, `one of those rarest of rare individuals, blending in himself in mellow measure, activism with restraint, politics with principle, scholarship with humanism and daring with dedication.'
Mr. V.R. Krishna Iyer is deeply concerned about the vulnerable situations in which the Indian migrant workers struggle in the GCC countries for their livelihood and to maintain their family members at the home land. Despite his constraints of old age, he endeavours to continue his commitments to the suffering segments in the society.
Mr. K.Sukumaran, Former Justice of Kerala and Bombay High Courts
The petitioner acknowledges with gratitude Mr. K Sukumaran, Former Justice of Kerala and Bombay High Courtsfor all his support. He is senior advocate who pleaded for the petitioner in the Hon’ble Supreme Court and in the High Court of Delhi.
Justice K. Sukumaran was appointed by the Government of Kerala as Chairman of a Committee to study and suggest amendments to the Emigration Act which could be placed before the Government of India. He feels that a well-designed legal Mechanism is desperately needed to protect and assist victims, in the Gulf countries in particular.
Organizations & Individuals
We are also thankful to many organizations, Non-resident Indians (NRIs) and their families who have come forward and shared their stories with us.
Conclusion
Overseas Indians’ Legal Cell
The ‘Overseas Indians’ Legal Cell’ is a Non-profit Organization, committed to help end the exploitation of Migrant workers and social injustices. The legal cell was started by the petitioner in 1996. Time and again, the ‘Legal Cell’ has received thousands of grievance letters from the affected persons during the tenure of their employment in the Gulf countries. Endeavours have always been made by the Legal Cell to render possible support to them
Towards this, we rely on the principles contained in the national and international law, whereas the peoples of the United Nations have in the Charter reaffirmed the Protection of the Rights of all migrant workers and members of their families.
