ECNR is not Required for Visitors

My parents have come from bombay on visit visa to kuwait. As usual I had made the Sponsorship affidavit by paying some 3.350 fils at Indian Embassy. When my parents apporched the Passport office at Bombay, the authorities told them that there is no need of ECNR NOW. I called the embassy to know more about it only to find that ECNR is required!. They are not aware at all. Anyhow my parents came to Kuwait without any hassle & without ECNR. So guys if any one of you are going to bring your loved ones on visit visa, please dont go for ECNR.
