Anandpur Sahib MP and the National Spokesperson of the Congress, Manish Tewari today urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to use his good offices to get back thousands of Indians stranded in the war ravaged Ukraine.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, Tewari said, heart-wrenching videos of young students’ plight circulating on social media show that our boys and girls were being brutalized on the Ukrainian-Polish border.
“I know it is a difficult situation but I am given to understand that 20,000-30,000 of our young boys and girls are still stuck in various parts of Ukraine and a substantial number of them are stuck in Eastern Ukraine that is close to the Russian border”, he said, while urging the Prime Minister to use his good offices with all the neighbours of Ukraine including Russia to ensure that our children are brought home safely.
He urged the Prime Minister to advise the concerned ministers who are overseeing the evacuation to redouble both the effort and resources required to bring every last Indian out of Ukraine safely.
