The Tamil Nadu government has tasked three MPs and a legislator to visit Hungary, Romania, Poland and Slovakia, countries that adjoin Ukraine, to coordinate with Indian embassies there to rescue students from Tamil Nadu, who have taken temporary shelter in these countries after leaving war-hit Ukraine.
DMK MPs Tiruchi Siva, Kalanidhi Veerasamy and M.M. Abdulla and legislator T.R.B. Rajaa will visit these countries for the mission to rescue and fly home stranded TN students on board special flights at the earliest, an official release said. Four IAS officers will join the elected representatives to consolidate efforts in evacuating the TN students.
The decision to depute them was taken during a meeting chaired by Chief Minister M.K. Stalin at the Secretariat on Thursday morning, during which he also reviewed the steps being taken to rescue TN students from Ukraine.
