Migration and movement of human population have always been an integral element in the history of mankind. India has been experiencing large-scale migration to foreign countries since centuries and in the current globalised era. The International Labour Organization - ILO has classified international migration for employment in to two major categories including settlement migration and contract migration (ILO, 1989). The contract migration is unique phenomenon practiced in few western countries but in particular in the GCC countries post oil boon during 1970's as the governments used sharply higher oil revenue to build infrastructure and housing, and expand the economy (Seccombe, 1985).
