WORST NIGHTMARE OF JOB SEEKERS.

Its a very good story covered by Mr. Vinod Kumar Menon, Mid-day. Actually, as usual i was reading my newly subscribed newspaper i.e. Mid-day, dated 13th Jan., 2011. While i was turning the pages consistently, suddenly my eyes stuck to the headline contain "CAMEL SLAVES RETURN AFTER ARABIAN NIGHTMARE". Difficult for me to understood that what is the exactly about. After reading a while, i understood it is the clear case of misguide. Agent promised 2 jobless guys regarding a job in Qatar. Unfortunately, he landed him in desert where farm of camel were situated. Guys suppose to be work there like to clean the farm everyday by getting at 3 in the early morning, do bottle feeding to 50 newly born camels and sometimes suppose to be work under 50 degree heat for 20hrs, they suppose to be sleep only for 3-4 hrs a day. Job Agents do misguide people that they will provide them a job in Qatar, Saudi, Dubai and Kuwait. Well, back to the story, Saudi government officials made a call to the employer to release his employees and just after that guys were threatened to kill by employees. Now you might wonder that how saudi govt. officials came to know about this tragedy of 2 guys. It was all due to information leaked by one of the employer. Guys who were misguided belongs to Mumbai, there are many alike which are brought from Kashmir, UP, Punjab, etc. I am requesting you friends that please kindly cross check the job agents status or do some related inquiry, don't be blind after hearing the job opportunity in foreign countries. I am very glad and thankful to reporter for covering such an important story. This shows that somewhere the ethics of journalism is still exist.
