Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In May 2023, India and Israel signed a major labour mobility agreement that allows 42,000 Indian workers to be employed in Israel.
This bilateral pact was finalized to meet Israel’s increasing demand for skilled and semi-skilled labour in certain sectors.
According to official reports, the sectors selected under this mobility pact are:
1. Construction – which has a high demand for workers due to continuous infrastructure development in Israel.
2. Nursing (Caregiving) – to address the growing need for caregivers and support staff for Israel’s aging population.
These sectors were prioritized due to workforce shortages and critical domestic needs in Israel.
Therefore, the most accurate and specific answer is option (B) Construction and Nursing.
