Kerala government today said it was striving hard to provide jobs to the nurses who returned home from the trouble-prone countries of Iraq and Libya.
Chief Minister Oommen Chandy assured a gathering of nurses who had returned to the state from these countries that the state government had been able to give jobs to the earlier batch of nurses who returned from Iraq with the cooperation of different hospitals.
We have requested more hospitals to come forward with jobs for the maximum number of nurses, he said.
Steps would be taken to ensure jobs to nurses in India as well as abroad according to their choice, he added.
Many Keralite nurses working in various hospitals in Iraq and LIbya had to return back following the internal conflicts in the countries earlier this year.
