A separate apex body for sports will be set up under the Indian embassy shortly, Indian Ambassador to Qatar HE P Kumaran has said.
The Indian envoy was speaking at reception in Doha, organised by the apex bodies of the Indian community — Indian Cultural Centre (ICC), Indian Community Benevolent Forum (IBPN) and Indian Business Professionals Network (IBPN).
Addressing the representatives of different sociocultural organisations of the Indian community, Kumaran announced the setting up of a separate apex body for sports, “which brings together all sports-related associations in our community under a single platform. By doing this, we’ll also be able to engage more effectively with Qatari sports organisations and enhance our partnership in the run-up to FIFA World Cup 2022.” The ambassador noted that India has close relations with Qatar, anchored in historical commercial ties and people-to-people contacts.
“You are a microcosm of India, reflective of its vibrant diversity and its talents, given the wide variety of your professional and job profiles and your involvement in virtually every sector of the Qatari economy,” he said.
The Indian envoy also urged the community to explore the investment opportunities in India and use initiatives like the digital platform to stay abreast of the new announcements, and to help the embassy serve the people better.
“The Government of India believes that overseas Indians form an important component of the growth agenda of the nation. I invite you to contribute in whatever way possible towards promoting the opportunities that India has to offer today.
“You can be an important catalyst for promoting India as an important investment and tourism destination. I would urge you to talk to your Qatari business associates and friends to look at India for these purposes.
“The government has taken several new initiatives such as creating digital platforms like Madad and e-Migrate so that Indians in any corner of the world are able to register their grievances directly and seek swift redressal.
I call upon you to spread the word that our workers should take full advantage of these online platforms. I would like you to promote registration on our Facebook and Twitter accounts in much larger numbers, so that any announcement we make can directly reach the entire community. I assure you that in the coming months and years, we’ll have a much better grievance-redressal system than in the past,” HE P Kumaran said.
