Asam Murali, a migrant worker from Telangana who has gone missing in Oman.
Hyderabad: A 43-year-old migrant worker from Telangana has been reported missing in Oman, prompting official intervention to trace his whereabouts.
Asam Murali, a resident of Dilawarpur village in Dilawarpur mandal of Nirmal district, travelled to Oman last month for employment. According to his family, he went missing while returning from a medical visit after leaving a labour camp.
Family members said they were informed of the incident by fellow Telangana workers in Oman a few days ago. Since then, there has been no confirmed information about his location, leaving his wife, children and father in distress.
The family on Tuesday, May 5, submitted a representation to Swadesh Parikipandla, a member of the Telangana government’s NRI Advisory Committee, seeking assistance in locating Murali and facilitating his safe return to India.
Acting on the request, Swadesh escalated the matter through the e-Migrate portal, informing the Protector of Emigrants (PoE) in Delhi and the Indian Embassy in Oman. Details were also shared with Gundeeti Ganesh of the Indian Social Club, with coordination under way with local authorities to trace the missing worker.
Swadesh said the Telangana government remains committed to the welfare of its overseas citizens and assured the family of all possible support as efforts continue.
