Russia Ukraine war: Day 2: Indian students, many thousands from Indore, moved into university bunkers on Friday, as the country enforced a strict curfew to save lives. Even stepping out was dangerous, as many Russian soldiers changed and wore Ukrainian uniforms in some high-threat area.
Day 2: Indian students, many thousands from Indore, moved into university bunkers on Friday, as the country enforced a strict curfew to save lives. Even stepping out was dangerous, as many Russian soldiers changed and wore Ukrainian uniforms in some high-threat area.
As the local government enforced a curfew, Indian students decided to gather and ensure the safety by uniting together. More than 20,000 students gathered in bunkers of universities, where they study.
The day was snowy, cold and freezing. Some poetic students hoped that the snow would freeze the war and bring back peace.
Some students also felt disappointed that the Indian government has not been able to come up with an evacuation plan for them yet.
The bunkers covered with snow are temporary and hopeful accommodation for the students. The markets are still out of food, but students are able to see the blessing in being safe at the moment.
The overnight curfew was enforced in many sensitive areas, where students from Indore, India are trapped.
Possible evacuation via road
Oversea consulting teams are trying to rescue the children from the war site via road now. The consultants in Indore are planning to bring back the student by creating a plan with consultants in nearby countries like Hungary.
“Students are trapped in a difficult situation, so the government and all of us are trying to find a road escape now,” Rajnish Ojha, a student exchange coordinator, said.
Jitendra Sahu, another student exchange coordinator, said, “We are grateful that students are safe, but they need urgane evacuation.”
Help us now, before it’s too late
Students living in bunkers now describe the situation as a taunting threat every second. Shubhash Choudhary said, “We don’t know what’s coming next anymore. We urge our homeland to rescue us.”
Another student Shiva Ram said, “This is a situation, wherein we don’t know what to do anymore. We feel quite helpless.”
“The government should not have ignored the seriousness of the situation when it was informed about the possible war. There is still time, we hope India will bring us back home soon,” Hrishikesh Tripathi, a student, said.
A medical student Arpita Sahoo said, “Every second I wish this is just a nightmare, not a reality. It’s the looming threat and possibilities which makes me anxious.”
Some families struggle to communicate
Some families in Indore are not able to establish any connection with children in Ukraine. The troublesome situation is causing stress and fear.
“My son Mayank Kumravat went to study in Ukraine, he has been studying there for four years,” Dr Bharat Kumravat said. Since the attack on Thursday, the family has not been able to get in touch with the student.
“Mayank was expected to return in the flight coming on Sunday, but airways are blocked and we don’t know how to manage anymore,”Dr Kumravat, said.
