Amid the Russia-Ukraine crisis, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal on Thursday urged Indians currently stranded in Ukraine to come forward and seek assistance to ensure safe mobility back to the country, even as the Congress hit out at the government accusing it of failing to act in time.
Mr. Lal said the State government would extend all possible support, in close collaboration with the Ministry of External Affairs, in repatriating them back to India. He urged ‘Haryanvis’ to remain calm and coordinate with the authorities for returning to the country.
Haryana Congress president Kumari Selja alleged that Indians were not brought back in time by the Central government. “About 2,000 citizens and students of Haryana live in Ukraine. Now, they were trapped in Ukraine in the middle of the war and a big crisis had arisen in front of them,” she said.
