JAIPUR: Around 30 students from
Kerala were sent home on Tuesday by the state government. Buses were arranged for them by the state transport department and students will reach their home state in three days. The students were studying in
Suresh Gyan Vihar University here. Around three days ago, 27 students uploaded a video on social media requesting Kerala government to get them out of Rajasthan.
They requested their government that they were stranded in the university hostel which the government asked them to vacate as those will be converted into a quarantine facility. Having no place else to go at the time of pandemic, students were desperate to go back home.
Rajasthan State Transport Corporation (RSRTC) secretary
Ravi Jain said, “We sent students in buses to Kerala. The buses left at 3.30pm on Tuesday. Students from
Gyan Vihar University were sent back to their home state with their luggage and we are expecting that they will reach in three days.”
Special permission was given by Rajasthan government and Kerala government to send these students back.
