At the same time, the family appealed to the Central government for the safe return of Rajkumar to his country.

Rajkumar's wife Rita Devi said, "My husband went to Kuwait for a job in January this year, but as per the promises made by the agent, he did not get the job in Kuwait. After that, he decided to return to India. He also asked me to book a train ticket from New Delhi to Himachal. However, after that, there is no information and whereabouts of him."

Rita Devi further said, "After booking the train ticket from New Delhi to Himachal, I sent it to him on WhatsApp, but till today he has not responded. I continuously called him, but the phone was switched off."

Rajkumar's father Omkar Singh said, "To support the family, my son went to another country. We have tried to contact him with the help of the agent, who sent him to Kuwait, but nothing is happening. Union Minister Anurag Thakur and the Indian Embassy were also contacted through e mail, but no response has been received from there yet."
