छात्र नवीन के न रहने की खबर दुखद है। लेकिन इसका रोना किससे रोया जाए।आगे और ऐसी खबर न मिले यही ईश्वर से प्रार्थना है।यूक्रेन में फंसे छात्र किसी मंत्री या नेता के बच्चे थोड़े है।सुना था अपना पासपोर्ट बहुत मजबूत हो गया है तो क्या यह सुरक्षा की भी गारंटी देता है?
It is very sad to hear of the death of Naveen of Ranbennur Taluk in Haveri district in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
Naveen, a fourth-year medical student in Kharkiv. I pray that God may give the family of Naveen the strength.

May his soul rest in peace!
Several Indian students who had gone to Ukraine for their studies have been requesting the Indian government to evacuate them due to the continuing war between Ukraine and Russia.
Across the country, students are taking refuge in metro tunnels and makeshift underground bunkers to avoid the Russian Air Force's constant bombings and the army's on-ground activity.
