The Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi spoke on the phone with the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky about the safe repatriation of Indians detained in various cities including Ukraine. He also spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday, shortly after he met with Zelensky. According to official sources, the two presidents have assured the Prime Minister of India of their full support in this regard. Official sources also said that while expressing concern over the war, the Prime Minister told the two presidents that India was always in favor of resolving the dispute through peaceful talks.
According to official sources, Modi told Putin that talks between the two countries' leaders should continue as they are, but that Putin should speak directly to President Zelensky. It will resolve disputes quickly and peace will be established. According to official sources, Putin and Zelensky offered all possible assistance in securing the safe return of the Indians. Between 800 and 900 Indians are detained in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Sumi. Some people are also detained in Pisochini. They are all hungry, thirsty, and afraid of life. The video clippings they are sending from Sumi show that they have survived by melting ice due to a lack of drinking water. The Indian government has made all preparations to rescue them. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the rescue operation, dubbed "Operation Ganga", is nearing completion. However, the rescue operation will end only when the stranded Indians, most of whom are studying medicine in Ukraine, can safely move to neighboring countries. This is what Modi talked about with Zelensky and Putin.
French President Emmanuel Macho made the same request to President Putin. According to the news agency, Russia declared a ceasefire for a few hours on Monday morning in response to that request. The purpose is to create humanitarian corridors to allow citizens to move safely. After Modi's phone call, the foreign ministry has been keeping an eye on how the opportunity was created anew and for how long. This is Modi's second talk with Putin and Zelensky since the war began. The first meeting with Putin took place on February 25, the day after with Zelensky. On Monday, Modi spoke with Putin for about 50 minutes and with Zelensky for 35 minutes. According to official sources, Modi has conveyed the need for a peaceful resolution of the conflict to the two leaders. He said a ceasefire was the first requirement for him.
Thousands of students from various Ukrainian cities have arrived in neighboring Poland, Moldova, Slovakia, and Romania. The Indian embassy in the Hungarian capital, Budapest, says work has begun on the last phase of Operation Ganga. So far 2,135 Indians have been repatriated. Another 1,500 Indians are waiting to return. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, The work of 'Operation Ganga' will be over when the students of Sumi and Pisochin move safely to the neighboring country. That is why Modi spoke to the presidents of the two warring countries yesterday.
