What's a repatriation?

 @stiffler: Repatriation means bringing one back to one's own country.   In this context, given the adversities in these Middle East nations, I am sure some, if not all, Nepali workers are seeking to come back home, for their physical safety and/or due to discontinued employment.  As Nepal benefits tremendously from the remittance that these laborers send home and also that they have to acquire government mandated worker's insurance prior to leaving for these countries, I wonder Nepali Government is actively pursuing the option of bringing these citizens safely back home.

I know they (Nepali government) were doing that in Egypt, most probably Libya too and now in Japan. Don't know to what extent they will do it, but they certainly have initiated the efforts.
