About Us
This is an initiative of Movement Of Positivity under the leadership and guidance of Hon Dr Dnyaneshwar Mulay, Former Ambassador and Secretary Ministry of External Affairs and presently Member National Human Rights Commission. Redio aims to help overseas Indians who get into distressed situations due to various factors .
Over 30 million Indians are living abroad. A large number of them hold Indian citizenship . Many of them get in to trouble due to cheating or abuse by recruiters/ employers ,immigration issues , passport visa frauds , lost jobs , medical emergencies , petty crimes , imprisonment or detentions and other legal entanglements .
Government of India is helping them through ICWF in a proactive manner . However awareness among overseas Indians about govt assistance , relief available and how to contact Indian Missions is poor . Besides there are things that embassies or consulates cannot do due to rules and regulations.In such cases Redio is trying to help by building collaborative network of people who are already known for their track record for helping others .
REDIO is a global organisation spread across all continents with 20 active advisors. It has emerged as an umbrella organisation to counsel the overseas distressed indians that cordinates with Missions as also with local Government , GOI and respective state in India.
REDIO is Civil Society effort to help distressed Indians abroad to compliment GoI efforts .
