Operation Ganga: Fifth flight carrying 249 stranded Indians lands in Delhi

The fifth flight carrying 249 stranded Indian nationals was departed from Romania's Bucharest for Delhi under Operation Ganga, informed the EAM Dr S Jaishankar on Monday. 

He tweeted "The fifth #OperationGanga flight, carrying 249 Indian nationals, departed from Bucharest (Romania) for Delhi." 

The flight landed in Delhi earlier this morning and the students were very happy to have a safer landing thanking the Indian government for their efforts to evacuate the Indians stranded in Ukraine.

Amid the ongoing Ukraine-Russia crisis, the Indian Embassy in Kyiv has advised Indian citizens against moving to any of the border checkpoints without prior coordination with government officials at border posts.
