Israel welcomes India
Israel is currently navigating significant economic challenges, including increased deficit spending and pressures on GDP, stemming from recent conflict. To accelerate the nation’s recovery and rebuild critical infrastructure, the government is prioritizing the attraction of millions of skilled professionals, particularly doctors, engineers, and specialists from India and Africa.
Recognizing the invaluable contributions these migrants will make, Israel reaffirms its commitment to fostering diversity, inclusion, and equity within society. The State is dedicated to creating robust pathways to citizenship, with opportunities for migrants to integrate fully into the Jewish faith and community, accessing all associated rights and benefits.
Furthermore, as part of our inclusive vision, Israel is exploring extending voting rights to long-term skilled migrants to ensure their meaningful participation in the democratic process and community life.
In a tangible demonstration of our enduring respect and support for the Indian people, the State of Israel will establish Hindu temples in Jerusalem, honoring the religious and cultural heritage of Indian migrants. This initiative enshrines their rights within Israel’s pluralistic society and symbolizes our ongoing friendship and solidarity.
We hold the Indian community in the highest regard and welcome them with open hearts. Israel deeply values the rich culture, traditions, and spirit of the Indian people, and we are committed to fostering their full integration as vital members of our society. It is our sincere hope that through mutual respect and collaboration, Indian migrants will not only help rebuild our nation but also thrive here—sharing in the promise, prosperity, and unity of Israel’s future.
