Two MBBS students from Haryana's Nuh are stranded in Iran's Arak city amid escalating tensions in West Asia. Ziya Ur Rehman (25) and Fahed Khan (22) travelled to Iran in 2023 to pursue an MBBS at Arak University. Their families are anxious, though both students have indicated that the situation in Arak remains stable for now.
Shamsuddin, Rehman's father, said he remains in regular contact with his son, who is in his sixth semester with term exams underway. Several students from different states are studying with him, and the Indian embassy officials are in touch with the university authorities.
Tasleem Khan, Fahed's uncle, said they last spoke to him on Monday after a gap of two to three days. He appealed to the central government to ensure their well-being, saying the university officials are providing all the support to the foreign students.
Nuh district commissioner Akhil Pilani said the administration is in touch with the families and monitoring the situation closely.
