Bengaluru, February 26: Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya has said the Karnataka Government will book students arriving in the country from Ukraine on connecting flights to Bengaluru for free.
A group of students from Karnataka landed in Mumbai from Romania on Saturday. A batch of 13 students will reach Delhi from Romania late night and another 5 students from the state will reach the National Capital around 7 am tomorrow.
