No significant surge in deaths of Indians abroad; 5,897 mortal remains repatriated this year: Centre



The corresponding figures for other years stood at 4,167 (in 2016); 4,222 (2017); 4,205 (2018); 5,291 (2019); 5,321 (2020); 5,834 (2021); 5,946 (2022); 6,532 (2023) and 7,096 (in 2024).Jaishankar said the time taken for repatriation of mortal remains varies with several factors, including the cause of death, the country from where the mortal remains have to be transported, the distance of the country from India, domestic laws of the host country, employment status of the deceased, and the presence of the next of kin in the country, among others.“The procedures will accordingly differ from country to country, depending on the regulations in the specific country. Therefore, no fixed time can be framed for eventual transportation of the mortal remains in death cases. Generally, the transportation of mortal remains is quicker in cases of natural deaths in comparison to the cases of unnatural deaths,” he added.
