New Delhi: Germany promised to dramatically boost the number of skilled Indians it permits to work in the country as Prime Minister Narendra Modi hosted Chancellor Olaf Scholz in New Delhi on Friday.
The German leader is on his third visit to India since last year, bringing several cabinet ministers for discussions between the leaders of the world's third- and fifth-largest economies.
His administration agreed to increase the number of visas granted annually to skilled Indian workers to 90,000, up from 20,000.
"The message is that Germany is open for skilled workers," Scholz said.
Modi hailed the agreement as an economic boon to both countries.
