Some Union Ministers may go to Ukraine's neighbouring countries to coordinate the evacuation of students, government sources said today.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a top level meeting this morning on the Ukraine crisis and Indian students who are stranded in the middle of Russia's invasion.
Some Union Ministers may go to Ukraine's neighbouring countries to coordinate the evacuation of students, government sources said today. The ministers likely to fly out for the task are Hardeep Puri, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Kiren Rijiju and VK Singh.
Around 16,000 students are believed to be stuck in Ukraine, hiding in bunkers, bomb shelters or their hostel basements.
Opposition parties, mainly the Congress, have been sharing videos of students' SOS and have attacked the government for not bringing back students sooner.
