The Andhra Pradesh government, led by NRI Relations and Empowerment Minister Kondapalli Srinivas, is facilitating the safe return of Telugus stranded in Gulf countries due to the Israel-Iran conflict. Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Srinivas are actively monitoring the situation to assist passengers facing challenges at airports amidst the ongoing war.
To support distressed Non-Resident Andhraites, the Andhra Pradesh Non-Resident Telugu society (APNRT) is collaborating with local Telugu families and coordinators in Gulf countries. They are offering temporary accommodation, security, and necessary aid to those in need. APNRT officials are in constant communication with the coordinators to ensure assistance is provided effectively.
Stranded Telugus are advised to utilize the services of the local Indian Embassy and the state government’s helpline numbers. For immediate help, individuals facing difficulties in Gulf countries can contact the APNRT 24/7 helpline numbers: 0863-2340678, WhatsApp: +91 85000 27678, email: he******@****ts.com. In case of emergencies, they are urged to reach out to the helpline numbers promptly for assistance.
In light of the situation in the Middle East affecting Indians in countries like the United Arab Emirates, Israel, Iran, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar, Minister Srinivas emphasized the government’s commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of all Indians abroad, particularly those from Andhra Pradesh. He urged everyone to rely on official sources for updates and assistance, cautioning against unverified information on social media. The Andhra Pradesh government reassures NRIs and their families of its unwavering support during these challenging times.
