In August 1990, under the leadership of then PM, VP Singh India executed the biggest peacetime evacuation of Indians from Kuwait....

1990 Kuwait Airlift
In 1990, when 1,00,000 Iraqi soldiers armed with 700 tanks marched into Kuwait, the royals and VIPs had fled to Saudi Arabia. The general public was left behind to fend for themselves. Over 1,70,000 of those stranded in Kuwait were Indians.
On August 13, 1990, 12 days after the invasion took place, India kicked off the evacuation process after diplomatic negotiations. Air India flights brought the first batch of Indians home.
Over the next two months, more than 1,70,000 Indians were airlifted and repatriated to India.
It was touted as one of the most successful evacuation missions in history and Air India registered itself in the Guinness World Records for executing the largest-ever air evacuation mission."

There were men and now all we have is a Bhompu!
Fahad Zuberi writes about the insensitive Modi who does not really care for anyone other than the reflection that he sees in the mirror every morning.....

"Remember this. Most of the stranded Indian students in #ukraine are Hindus.
And Narendra Modi blamed them for their own suffering because they're studying medicine in "small foreign nations" instead of India.

The Prime Minister has no consideration for the suffering of those students and their family members - his own citizens who voted him to power.
If you think that politics of psychopathy will not knock on your doorstep because you are not Muslim or Schedule Caste, you're wrong."

In 2020, 8,69,010 appeared for IIT JEE exam. Out of this top 2,50,000 are allowed to appear in IIT JEE Main Exam.
Total Number of B.Tech seats across all IIT's put together is 9737!!!

That means out of 2,50,000 people who give IIT JEE Main exam, only 9737 people get to join the course. Just 4% students get into IIT.

Does that mean that the other 96% were failures?
Of course not, they were not as good as those who got to the top of the merit list.

Our BJP leader is telling that those who failed NEET, have gone abroad. He, perhaps, has never appeared for a competitive exam in his 'entire' life.

Dear Jyotirditya Scindia and Piyush Goyal Sir.
It was really very nice of you to address the students who have come back from Ukraine and all Indians appreciate your governments effort, Operation Ganga, to bring rest of the students stranded there back to the country.
The dispatch of four senior ministers to various borders of Ukraine is highly appreciated too.

I note with pleasure that PM Modi has now become aware of the problem of Indian students going abroad to do MBBS course.

GLANCE AT THIS TAKE:
Personally, Im not the wiser...
Greater Russia is now a full-spectrum commodity superpower, less vulnerable to sanctions than Europe itself.
The West’s pain threshold is about to be tested – Fortress Russia will endure this contest of self-reliance more stoically than Europe

In a matter of hours, the world order has turned drastically less favourable for the western democracies.

There was once a chairman of Medical Council of India, Mr. Ketan Desai, from Apro Gujarat.

He was caught in a medical college sanction scam. CBI arrested him for allowing a private college to give admissions to an MBBS course.
After Modi returned to power, Ketan Desai returned to MCI.

It takes close to 5 Crores to produce an MBBS doctor in India. And it is a long course. After spending such a huge amount of money, people expect doctors to be benevolent and treat patients for almost free.
News from Ukraine indicates that there are 20,000 students studying medicine there. Typical cost of the course is around 6000 US Dollars per year. Add another 6000 as living expenses. That makes it 12000 US Dollars, which translates to 9,00,000 per year.

This is 2022, not 1945.

It is reprehensible that any country can attack another sovereign country in this date and time and the world watches.

UN has always been a useless organization. It has lost all its relevance.
That is why there have been so many conflicts across the world. UN is not a democratic organization, some countries are more equal than others. They have special powers called the 'Veto' powers. They can veto any resolution that they don't like.
Therefore the resolution remains on paper only and the problem remains unresolved.

It is sad that India chose to abstain from the voting on UN resolution asking Russia not to attack Ukraine.

Keeping silent or abstaining is going with the oppressor.

20,000 students have been left high and dry in Ukraine. Government of India, read that as Modi Sarkar, has failed them.
These students were in Ukraine because they wanted to become doctors and could not afford the corrupt system in India which wanted 3 to 5 Crores as fees. They went to Ukraine.

The Government of India, also known as Modi Sarkar, failed to advise them in time.
That is because Government of India, read that as Modi Sarkar, was busy doing election rallies in UP.

There is a clutch of Gujarati Students too who are stuck there. They were told to go to Poland border and they walked.
