After securing a medical seat three months ago, Mumbai-based Suraj Pal shifted to Ternoplis city in Ukraine to complete his graduation. Little did he know that he will have to return, without completing his six-year medical course, as Russia will invade Ukraine.
Pal had to travel for around 8 hours by road to reach the Romanian border. He claims that there was no official to help there. "Our government should deploy some officials on the border too. There is a huge crowd and long queues to cross over to Romania. Due to sub-zero temperatures, no food or water, many students are falling sick. There are no facilities to cater to medical emergencies also,” he said.
