Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Tuesday urged students from Jammu and Kashmir studying in Iran to follow the Union government’s advisory and return home while commercial travel remains operational.
In its latest advisory, the Embassy of India asked its citizens to “leave Iran by available means of transport, including commercial flights.”
The advisory comes in the wake of Saturday’s protests in Iran following 40-day memorials for people killed in January during anti-government rallies.
“I would tell them that please do not ignore this advisory from the government of India, because it otherwise becomes an issue for us,” Abdullah told reporters in Ganderbal district in central Kashmir.
The chief minister said the situation in Iran is currently stable, with airports open and commercial flights operating.
“I appeal to all the students and those who work there, who do not ignore this advisory, book your tickets and leave Iran,” he said.
