There could be a breakthrough for some Indian nurses in the UAE who could risk losing their jobs due to new educational qualification requirements.
They've been assured by a minister visiting the UAE that talks are underway to resolve the issue.

Nurses have also been asked to register their issues with the education consul at the Consulate General of India in Dubai.
