'Disturbing': Shashi Tharoor flags report findings on 'conservative values' in Kerala's Saudi returnees
The study shared by Tharoor finds that migrants returning from Saudi Arabia tend to exhibit “conservative values”, mentioning “gender-based violence”.
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor arrived in Kathmandu on August 26, unaware of the catastrophic flash floods that had struck northern Nepal. Upon his arrival, Tharoor learned of the devastating impact, with the death toll rising to 160 and approximately 2,000 people reported missing. The floods were caused by a massive glacial collapse, leading to a surge of water, mud, and debris downstream.
Authorities are conducting search-and-rescue operations and providing emergency aid to thousands affected by the disaster, using helicopters to transport victims to safety. The floods destroyed at least 19 motorable bridges and washed away around 40 km of the Betrawati-Rasuwagadhi highway. Tharoor expressed concern over the loss of lives, particularly the large number of Indian tourists affected by the disaster.
