Indian Students At Poland Border ‘Not Being Allowed To Cross’, Brave Freezing Cold

New Delhi: Three Air India evacuation flights have already returned bringing back Indians from Ukraine. Two of these flights picked up Indians from Romania’s capital Bucharest, while the third one did so from Hungary’s capital Budapest. A fourth flight has already taken off from Bucharest.

But news about Indians in Ukraine hoping to be evacuated from Poland is not very encouraging. According to reports, hundreds of Indian students, who have reached the Poland border on foot, are allegedly not being allowed to cross the border and have already spent over 48 hours in freezing cold.

There has been “no response from the Indian Embassy” to their calls and messages, according to the reports.

The students are at the Shehyni-Medyka border.

The Embassy of India in Warsaw had earlier issued an advisory asking students to reach the Shehyni-Medyka border by foot or bus/taxi.

Polish authorities are allegedly not stamping the passports of Indians but allowing Ukrainians to cross over.

The students are sleeping in the open, on parks and roads. Some have returned to their apartments in Lviv and Ternopil.

On Sunday afternoon, Cnbctv18.com quoted Ambassador of Poland to India Adam Burakowski as saying that Poland was allowing Indian students, who escaped from Russian aggression in Ukraine.
