It is now well-known that several Indian youths are stranded in Russia, one of whom is from Sambhali village in Karnal, Haryana. Until yesterday he was serving in the Russian army near the Russia-Ukraine border, but following media attention and embassy intervention, he has been relocated from the frontline to a camp.
While video calls have been unsuccessful, the family has been communicating through chat and voice calls. In a hopeful development, the family met with MP Sanjay Bhatia today at the district secretariat, presenting their situation, and the MP assured to discuss the matter with the PMO and Embassy.
The MP assured Harsh's family that efforts will be made to safely return their son. Hope was reignited with responses from the embassy. Harsh communicated that he and his companions have been moved back to the camp from the frontline.
Their return is eagerly awaited. It remains to be seen how quickly the government, administration, and Indian embassy can facilitate their safe homecoming.
