A new white paper released in London says Indian migrants make a major contribution to the UK economy and public services. The study was prepared by Here & Now 365 with the Aston India Centre at Aston University. It reviews four waves of Indian migration since India’s independence. The report says early migrants filled labour shortages after World War II and supported core services. Later groups built businesses and entered skilled professions. It estimates Indian-born professionals account for about 15% of the UK technology workforce. The paper says the Indian diaspora is “woven into the UK’s growth story” through health, skills, and innovation. (PC: NDTV)
