Saudi Arabia Abolishes Decades-Old Kafala System: Historic Win For 2.5 Million Indians

In a historic decision, Saudi Arabia has successfully abolished the controversial kafala system, marking a major victory for labour rights. The reform, part of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030, impacts nearly 13 million migrant workers, including over 2.5 million Indians. Previously, the system tied a worker's residency and status to their employer, often leading to exploitation and 'modern-day slavery.' Under the new contract-based framework, employees can now change jobs and leave the country without sponsor permission. However, critics warn that domestic workers remain vulnerable.
