Parents remain anxious

:

The parents of students stuck in Ukraine are anxious about the safety of their children as the war has claimed a student from Karnataka. The parents are in constant touch with their children over the phone to get updates about their location. However, students have convyed that they hardly get any response from the embassy in that country.

Saraswathi, a student of Taras Shevchenko National University at Kharkiv, had called up her parents Sudhish and Nagamani at Hemvati Nagar in Hassan on Tuesday. She narrated how the students had been suffering. As the drinking water supply had been affected, they had to boil the tap water for drinking purposes. They could not go out to fetch essentials as curfew had been clamped. Whenever the curfew was relaxed, they walked out to fetch food items, standing in long queues.
