1,000 Indian students return
The Free Press Journal|July 21, 2024
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said on Saturday that 778 Indian students had returned to India from Bangladesh through various land transit points, and around 200 students had flown in from Dhaka and Chittagong using regular flight services.  

The MEA said that Indian missions in Bangladesh are in regular touch with the authorities to ensure the safety and security of Indian nationals and students, as the neighbouring country continued to reel under deadly clashes over a controversial job quota system. 

MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal on Friday said that around 15,000 Indians were living in Bangladesh.

The MEA said the Indian High Commission in Dhaka and the assistant high commissions in Chittagong, Rajshahi, Sylhet and Khulna have been assisting the return of Indian nationals home.
