Four students studying in Manipur have been evacuated from the violence-hit state and brought back safely. These students and their families had reportedly approached the state government for help.
The four students are S Jason David and Anu – both students of the National Sports University, Imphal, and Mohit Arora and Anurag Khanna of the Indian Institute of Technology, Imphal.
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann had earlier this week announced a helpline for residents of Punjab stranded in the northeastern state.
The government immediately swung into action and after tracing the students got them a flight from Imphal to New Delhi this afternoon. From there the three students boarded a train to Chandigarh and are expected to reach here tonight.
Anurag Khanna’s father, Vijay Khanna, a Ludhiana resident, said he contacted the helpline on Monday and his son was finally with him with the government’s efforts. He was in Delhi this afternoon to pick up his son.
