As many as 99 NRIs have become victims of terrorist incidents across the world including those in Iraq during the last three years, government informed the Lok Sabha today.
"As reported by the Indian missions/posts abroad, a total of 86 NRIs in Iraq, 10 NRIs in Kenya and 3 in Yemen have become victims of terrorist activities during the last three years," Minister of State for Overseas Indian Affairs Gen V K Singh (Retd) said in a written reply.
On any concrete scheme prepared by government to ensure NRIs don't get affected by terrorist activities, the minister said necessary advisories are issued to warn them of possibility of terrorist incidents.
"The missions also facilitate evacuation when it is called for," he said.
Singh also informed that no specific agreement regarding safety of emigrant Indians have been signed with any country so far.
