New Delhi, March 24

Several students who recently returned from Ukraine gathered in the national capital on Thursday along with their parents to thank the government for safe evacuations and urge the Health Ministry to accommodate them in medical colleges.

Gathered under the banner of Bharat Ukraine Students Parents Association, the affected families thanked PM Narendra Modi for bringing them home safely and said their future was in the dark.

“We demand that students should be accommodated across the existing medical colleges and universities so that they can complete their degrees and serve the country,” said Harish Kumar, among the organisers who described the meeting as thanksgiving.

As many as 18,000 students have returned from Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict with Russia. —

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
