Grateful and thankful to both Central Government @PMOIndia Sikkim Government @PSTamangGolay for their fast actions and helping students out of Ukraine. They really understood that the students were not only fighting with the war but also with racism and extremely cold weather.
The Ukrainian military retakes Kyiv airport from Russian special forces, dealing a shocking blow to Putin's invader army. RT IF YOU STAND WITH UKRAINE!
It's basic human behaviour to hold on to what they have till the last, be it coastal dwellers in the face of a cyclone or Indian students stranded in #ukraine. Those who are mocking them and their families should get themselves a student loan first.
As of yet, we have received details of 20 students currently stranded in Ukraine. We have contacted the Ministry of External Affairs & have provided the details. Indian Embassy in Hungary, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Slovakia have been also contacted

CM requests Sikkimese citizens studying or residing in Ukraine to contact Shri Ratnamani Pradhan, Public Relations Officer (PRO), Chief Ministers’ Office, Gangtok on the following number (+91 97351 23333) or via mail ([email protected]).
There are 18000 Indian students and many families who are struck in Ukraine, I am sure Government must be trying their best to get them back. I urge Indian Embassy to find an alternate route for their evacuation. Praying for their safety. #IndiansInUkraine
