SRINAGAR:PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti on Thursday sought the Union government’s intervention for the safe return of students, including Kashmiris, from Iran amid the prevailing tension there.
This came a day after parents of several Kashmiri students studying in Iran expressed concern over the situation there, and appealed to the Centre to facilitate their children’s return.
“Thousands of students from across the country, including Kashmir, are stranded in Iran amid the present volatile situation. This has triggered deep fear and anxiety in anguished parents desperately worried about their children’s safety. Urge S Jaishankar and MEA to intervene urgently and ensure their safe return,” Mehbooba said in a post on X.
