 - Sakshi Post

With the fast paced developments unfolding in Kabul, with the takeover of the presidential palace by the Talibamn fighters, foreign embassies from different parts of the world are winding up their operations and started evacuation of  their staff members.

As per reports, India too is beginning to evacuate hundreds of its officials and citizens from Kabul to ensure their safety. India is said to have prepared contingency plans, including evacuating its staff members and stranded nationals in the country.

According to reports, a fleet of C-17 Globemaster military transport aircraft of the Indian Air Force has been kept on standby to undertake the emergency evacuation mission. However, there has been no official confirmation yet regarding the evacuation plans.
