Cases like Past TB history, old scar, minor physical disability or any kind of abnormality ( i.e psoriasis, virtigo ) are all declared as medically UNFIT. Immoral attitude and lack of medical examination detail at the GAMCA medical centers well known.
GAMCA guidelines are clear discrimination of human basic rights. GAMCA guidelines declare Asian workers medically UNFIT to work/live in GCC countries even though indvidual doesn't have any infectious or Non-infectious disease.
