Dear Friends, I am glad to inform you all that the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, has directed to extend the grace period for correcting the status of violating workers until the end of the current Hijri year 1434 AH as a maximum period i.e. till the end of Bakrid month "Zilhajja". It may be recalled here that the Indian government had taken the immediate steps by deputing two high level delegations to Saudi Arabia consisting of Mr.Vyala Ravi, Mr.E.Ahmed and Mr.T.K.Nair and then the Minister of External Affairs Mr.Salman Khursheed saheb visited Saudi Arabia and had fruitful meetings with Crown Prince Salman, Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal, Prince Muqrin, Interior Minister Mohammed bin Naif and Labor Minister Adel Fakeih. He also delivered a personal letter from our prime minister to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah. It may be mentioned here that the first representation was made to the Indian government by the United Andhra pradesh Forum through its President Janab Aijaz Ahmed Khan saheb which Khaleequr Rahman had personally handed over to the PMO, External Affairs Minister, Minister for Overseas Affairs and the government of India acted immediatly on the representations which resulted in the high level delegations visiting KSA. Khaleequr Rahman had also reached Saudi Arabia a day before the visit of Janab Salman Khursheed saheb and met the Indian Consul General in Jeddah and HE Indian Ambassador in Riyadh and the Indian community and its leaders which resulted in the restoration of their confidence. The picture below shows Janab Aijaz Ahmed Khan saheb handing over the letter of thanks with a request for further extention of time in the grace period to Janab Salman Khursheed saheb in the presence of Khaleequr Rahman and today I am delighted that the grace period has been extended by another three months which will help the voilating Indian workforce to a greater extent. I also would like to appreciate and thank the CGI Mr.Faiz Kidwai sahed and our Ambassador Janab Hamed Ali Rao saheb for their tireless service to the Indian community. I salute their services....and congratulations Janab Aijaz saheb...
