On March 10, he had informed the Indian authorities about five Indians who were stuck there. Post which, three out of the five students were brought back--Vadi Vivek, Milan Domadiya and Arokia Raj.

The three students who were evacuated were brought to Moscow via Crimea in a bus and then flown back home last week. The activist Sharma has once again filed an online plea urging the President, the Prime Minister of India and the Union Minister of External Affair for the evacuation of stranded girls.

Informing the media about the condition of the girls there, he said that they are left with little food and are cold because they gave back their blankets and other items to the caretaker of the building that they resided in following a message from the Embassy of India about the evacuation.

Sharma knows all this information about them because he has been in constant contact with both the girls through WhatsApp.

Recently during a hearing at the Supreme Court over the evacuation of Indian students from Ukraine, Attorney General KK Venugopal said that the Government of India has brought back 22,500 students and nationals from other countries till now.
