The possibility of large number of Keralites returning from Saudi Arabia was not likely with the new relaxations announced by the Saudi government in connection with its 'nitaqat' law, Chandy said in a statement here.
The Chief Minister expressed gratitude to the Saudi government for the concessions announced. The action of the Saudi government would serve to make the close relationship between India and Saudi Arabia warmer, he said.
Chandy congratulated Union Ministers Vayalar Ravi and E Ahamed and officials of the Indian Embassy in Saudi Arabia who had held talks with Saudi authorities on the law.
