Members of the Bharatiya Janata Party are meeting family members of students from Karnataka, who are stranded in Ukraine, to boost their confidence and assure them of efforts to ensure the safe return of the students, said State BJP president and Dakshina Kannada Member of Parliament Nalin Kumar Kateel.
Talking to reporters in Mangaluru on March 2 after meeting a few of the family members of students from the city, who are among the medical students stranded in Ukraine, Mr. Kateel said the party has set up a war room where all information about the stranded students is being collected. This will be shared with State and Central agencies involved in facilitating safe passage for the students.
