Nath also said New Delhi would like to put the issue of a ban on outsourcing jobs "once and for all behind us," the Press Trust of India reported Thursday.

"Concerns about outsourcing are based more on emotions than economics," he said Wednesday.

His remarks follow calls from several U.S. states to ban or limit outsourcing.
