India says Russia is safe–no security reasons for Indian students to leave the country

<p>
<strong>The Indian embassy in Russia has reassured all Indian students studying in various universities of the country that, at present, it sees no security reasons for them to return home.</strong></p>
<p>
In its latest guidelines, the embassy in Moscow, which has been receiving messages from Indian students seeking advice on their continued stay in the country, said that it is in regular contact with relevant Russian authorities with respect to the safety and security of the Indian nationals, including students.<br />
<br />
"Certain disruption of banking services in Russia and direct flight connectivity from Russia to India is, however, taking place. If students have concerns regarding these aspects and would like to travel back to India, they may consider doing so," the embassy said in a statement.<br />
<br />
Speaking on the academic programmes, the Indian embassy said that it has been informed by a number of universities that they have already shifted to the online distance learning mode.<br />
<br />
"Students are advised to exercise their discretion in consultation with their respective universities on the appropriate course of action regarding continuation of their academic activities without disruption," the statement added.</p>
