He has cited that the hatred against Muslims in India and specifically in Hindutva doctors have constantly grown amidst COVID-19 pandemic which Kuwait had not expected.
In a tweet from his handle, Haif added that Kuwait had not expected that the health sector would be affected to this extent against Muslims.
He was referring to the video of Dr. Aarati Lalchandani, whose video had recently gone viral showing her passing hateful comments against Muslims and Tablighi Jamat members.
Hayef called on the Health Minister to stop contracting in the Health sector with India and also called for reconsidering the existing contracts with the country.
Director of the Center for Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law in Kuwait, Mujeel Alshrika wrote on twitter, “Powerful Kuwaiti Parliamentarian @mhamdhaif demands the Nation's health ministry to immediately halt all health service-related contracts with India. This is due to the growing hatred of Hindutva doctors towards Muslim patients. Deliberate manslaughter feared @indembkwt @hrw @ndtv”.
تزايدت في الآونة الأخيرة وتيرة الكراهية عند الهندوس ضد المسلمين لكن لم نتوقع أن تصل للمجال الصحي ولهذا المستوى من الحقد والكراهية لذلك يجب على وزير الصحة وقف التعاقد مع الجاليةالهندوسية وإعادة النظر في العقود الحالية وتحمل المسئولية في عدم التهاون في حماية مرضانا من أي ضرر محتمل https://t.co/x1HmZGgkVR

Kochi (Kerala) (PTI): Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Sunday announced that a multimodal cargo network integrating air, road, rail, and water routes will be established, with CIAL serving as its primary hub.
He was speaking while inaugurating the plenary session of the International Cargo Business Summit, organised by CIAL in association with FICCI, marking the 25th anniversary of Cochin International Airport Limited's cargo department.
The chief minister inaugurated the event by moving a gear lever on a cockpit model installed on the stage.
Vijayan stated that CIAL is striving to create a business environment favourable to Kerala's economic growth beyond just functioning as an airport.
He noted that CIAL handled over 65,000 metric tonne of cargo in the last financial year, and this is expected to rise to 74,000 tonne in the current fiscal year.
CIAL has provided a 50 per cent dividend to its investors and stands as a model for the entire country through its operations. Construction of three bridges benefiting four panchayats is also underway.
Furthermore, CIAL has begun the process of obtaining certification for handling pharmaceutical products, which will commence immediately upon approval.
In his presidential address, State Industries Minister P Rajeev mentioned that prominent global companies establishing logistics parks near CIAL would allow for greater utilisation of the airport's cargo potential.
He added that the presence of large-scale companies reflects the growth rate of cargo movement in the region.
The chief minister honoured institutions that demonstrated excellence in cargo exports during the ceremony.
CIAL Managing Director S Suhas delivered the welcome speech.
CIAL Cargo Department Head Satheesh Kumar R Pai delivered the vote of thanks.
