Telangana NRI Panel, MLAs to Study Labour Practices in Philippines
Leaders from a part of India called Telangana are going on a special trip.
They will travel to a country called the Philippines.
Many workers from India go to other countries to find jobs.
Some of these workers face problems far from home.
The leaders want to learn how the Philippines takes care of its workers.
The Philippines sends many workers to other countries too.
The group will meet experts and officials from India's embassy.
Their trip will last from August 17 to August 21.
After the trip, they hope to start a new board to help Indian workers in other lands.
This board would try to keep workers safe and treated fairly.
