PM Modi attributed Operation Ganga's success to India’s growing influence in the global arena.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi attributed the success of 'Operation Ganga' -- the mission to evacuate citizens stranded in war-torn Ukraine, to India’s growing influence in the global arena.
The PM made the remark while inaugurating the golden jubilee celebration of Symbiosis University in Pune. “We are evacuating thousands of Indians safely from war zone through Operation Ganga,” Modi was quoted as saying.
“It is due to India’s growing influence that it has brought thousands of students from the war zone of Ukraine back to their motherland,” he said.
Several big countries are facing hard ships in evacuating their citizens, he added.
On Saturday, the government in a statement said the Indian government's Operation Ganga flew 13,700 citizens stranded in war-hit Ukraine back home safely. The special flights started last week.
