India’s minister of state for external affairs, Vijay Kumar Singh, said the government will take strict action against illegal recruitment agencies hiring for overseas jobs, reports the Economic Times of India. Singh said that the Ministry of External Affairs will be creating a national repository that can be used by foreign employers or officials for verification of educational qualification of those seeking employment or employed abroad. “We are coming down hard on illegal recruitment because we still find lot of agents who are not registered; they are able to fool people by showing them what they will get abroad”, Singh said. “They take them on all kinds of routes. You will be surprised that lot of these domestic sector workers go on tourist visas. We are taking action against them”.
