DNA Exclusive: ‘Operation Ganga’ - Why Indian students must listen to Pakistani girl student rescued from Ukraine

Zee News Editor-in-Chief Sudhir Chaudhary analysed a Pakistani student’s gratitude towards the Indian government on being safely brought to India from war-torn Ukraine vis-a-vis the sheer lack of gratitude displayed by some Indian students.

In today’s DNA, we introduce you to two girl students - one each from India and Pakistan. Both of them studied in Ukraine and both of them have been rescued by the Indian government amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. But when you listen to them, you will feel that the student of India is probably from Pakistan, and the student from Pakistan is probably from India.

Zee News Editor-in-Chief Sudhir Chaudhary on Tuesday (March 09) analysed a Pakistani student’s gratitude towards the Indian government on being safely brought to India from war-torn Ukraine vis-a-vis the sheer lack of gratitude displayed by some Indian students. 

This Pakistani student is happy that she was somehow evacuated safely from the war-torn Ukraine. The government of Pakistan was unable to rescue its students trapped in Ukraine’s Sumi. But the Indian government not only evacuated its students on humanitarian grounds, but also evacuated citizens of 17 more countries including Pakistan and Bangladesh. And today all of them are happy that they returned safely from Ukraine. But many students of India are not even talking about it. In fact, they are full of grievances.

Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the evacuation of nine Bangladeshi students from Sumi. And the Pakistani students have also openly praised the Indian government and Prime Minister Modi. One wonders what is stopping many students of our country from saying thank you from the heart? 

The latest update at this time is that 600 Indian students who were rescued from Sumi have reached the city of Lviv in western Ukraine. And now they are being taken to the Poland-Ukraine border, which is 70 km from Lviv. Then these students will be brought to India.
