New Delhi, March 8 (IANS) All Indian students who were stuck in Sumy area of war-torn Ukraine have been successfully airlifted through Operation Ganga, the government said on Monday.
Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said that they had apprehensions but their mission to evacuate Indian students was successful.
"Happy to inform that we have been able to move out all Indian students from Sumy," he tweeted.
The Indian students were first taken to Poltava, from where they boarded trains to western Ukraine, and were finally airlifted.
Union Law and Justice Minister Kiren Rijiju also said all the students from Sumy were taken out.
"It was very worrying but finally all Indian students from Sumy have been taken out. The intervention from the highest level & effective coordination of the team at the ground have saved our young students," he said in a tweet.
Sushma Swaraj, Arun Jaitley, M Venkaiah Naidu and Ananth Kumar were called "Delhi-4" or "D4" by some in BJP as they were mostly based in the national capital.
Right from her childhood, she was fond of taking part in debates and contests in school, those who lived close to the family home in Cantonment's BC Bazaar area recalled.
Nirmohi Akhara, one of the leading parties in the case, has been seeking management and proprietary rights over the disputed site on various grounds including that it was under its possession since time immemorial and it has the status of ''shebaitship'' of the deity.
A tearful Geeta, who has speech and hearing impairment, through sign language, said Ms Swaraj used to be concerned about her well-being "like a mother".
