'PM Modi called Putin when...': Jaishankar reveals details of Ukraine evacuation

Published on Apr 06, 2022 05:43 pm IST

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar hailed Operation Ganga in the Lok Sabha while briefing the house on the situation in Ukraine. "No one has ever evacuated its citizens at such a large scale. It was the most challenging evacuation carried out by India and is inspiring other countries. Had the four Union ministers not gone to countries neighbouring Ukraine, India would not have got the same level of cooperation," he said. Jaishankar added that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was personally invested in the evacuation, and that he conducted meetings and supervised the situation in the midst of elections.
