Three years ago, a friend of mine got a lucrative job opportunity in an Indian company based in Doha. I discouraged him from taking it up, knowing the problems, a Hindu with a voice can face there. He didn’t pay heed and soon took his wife as well, came back running in a month.
Apparently, his company was consulting the local Arabs with contacts in Qatari govt. They defaulted the payments after availing the consulting services because of which the Indian company was unable to pay salaries to its Doha employees. My friend kind of headed the Doha office.
With a wife along and a family in India to take care of, he was getting frustrated as the Arabs would just not release the payments and he and his colleagues didn’t have their salary for three months. His Mallu boss would pressurise him to recover the dues if he wanted his pay.
He started pressurising the Arab defaulters by bombarding them with multiple emails that if they didn’t release the payments, the company would have to take a legal action. What happened next was SHOCKING, he was threatened of being falsely implicated and being jailed forever.
He and his wife were traumatised and allegedly reached out to the Indian officials there but got no help. Finally, he had to write an apology and state that the local defaulters didn’t owe his company anything to be able to travel back to India. They literally ran back to India..
With some basic clothes and left all their furnishings like big appliances, furniture etc back there as it became a matter of life and death for them. His wife rejoined her old company and he is with an Indian bank now. Living happily and most importantly, freely.
And today, we are seeing these open violations of human rights of Hindus in Arab countries. Any criticism of misdeeds performed by people of the Muslim community in India is being deemed as Islamophobia and harmless Hindus are being tried under draconian blasphemy laws.
The worst part is the Indian Govt instead of coming to the defence of its people is pandering to the whims of Arabs from countries which have the worst records of human rights as a matter of fact.

Things should improve, once Modi Ji is our PM. He won’t tolerate such injustice.
