Operation Ganga fifth flight from Bucharest lands in Delhi

New Delhi: The fifth Operation Ganga flight carrying  249 Indian nationals that departed from Bucharest (Romania), landed in Delhi on Monday morning. So far over 1000 Indians have been evacuated from Ukraine under the rescue mission of the central government titled Operation Ganga.

"Government has helped us a lot. All possible support was provided by the Indian Embassy. The main problem is crossing the border. I hope all Indians are brought back. There are several more Indians still stranded in Ukraine," said the students who arrived to Delhi from Ukraine, reports ANI. 

Indian nationals, especially students, living closest to the border checkpoints are advised to depart in an organised manner in coordination with teams from the Ministry of External Affairs.

The Central Government has set up 24x7 Control Centres to assist in the evacuation of Indian nationals through the border crossing points with Poland, Romania, Hungary and the Slovak Republic.
