Another Indian said that the situation there was normal and they returned home safely. There were network problems in Iran. He had gone there for work. Another Indian said, "We had gone there for a month. But in the last one or two weeks, we faced problems. When we went out, protesters would come in front of the car. They would create some obstruction. The internet was shut down, so we couldn't tell anything to our families, which caused some worry. We couldn't even contact the embassy."

 

 

'Modi government provided continuous support...'

A family member of another Indian who returned from Tehran said, "My wife's aunt had gone on a trip to Iran. Iran has always been a good friend of India, and we have great faith in the Modi government, which provided continuous support. We thank the Indian government, because of whom this was possible. We are very happy that our family member is returning to India."

 

 

'There was a war-like situation in Iran, the internet was shut down...'

Another family member waiting for their loved ones said, "My sister-in-law is returning from Iran today. There was a war-like situation in Iran, and there was no internet. We couldn't contact her through any means. We were worried. We are very happy that she is returning to India safely. We thank the Indian government for arranging her return during this difficult time."

 

 

Another person said, "My mother and aunt are returning from Iran. We were worried because we couldn't contact them for three days... They are returning to India today." One person said, "My father and sister are returning from Iran today. Their flight has landed. We thank the Indian government and especially Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking immediate action."

 

 

What did the Indian Embassy and the Ministry of External Affairs say in their advisory? The Indian Embassy in Tehran advised all citizens, including students, businesspeople, pilgrims, and tourists, to leave Iran using available means of transportation. Meanwhile, the Ministry of External Affairs, in a separate advisory issued from New Delhi, warned Indian citizens to avoid traveling to Iran until the situation normalizes. Reiterating an earlier advisory issued on January 5, they urged Indian citizens residing in Iran to remain vigilant and refrain from participating in any demonstrations or protests.

 

 

Why are there protests in Iran?

The protests began on December 28 at the Grand Bazaar in Tehran.

The protests were triggered by the Iranian rial's value plummeting to a record low.

These protests later spread throughout the country.

Several factors contributed to the currency's decline, including an unprecedented water crisis, power outages, rising unemployment, and inflation.
