The Jammu and Kashmir Students Association (JKSA) announced that approximately 100 students stranded in Iran will return to India via Armenia on commercial flights on March 14 and 15.
This will be the first batch of students returning from Iran amid the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
The students will travel on Flydubai flights scheduled for March 14 and March 15, which will operate as connection flights via Dubai to Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI).
There is currently no formal evacuation plan in place for Indian students in Iran, and those returning at present are travelling through commercial flight arrangements.
Family members of the students expressed concern for their safety, with many praying for their safe return home.
The Jammu and Kashmir government has assured that it will provide buses for the students from Delhi Airport to Srinagar upon their return.
