The Government of India is set to begin evacuating Indian nationals stranded in Iran as early as January 16 due to widespread protests and deteriorating safety conditions across the country, officials said. The Indian Embassy in Tehran is physically reaching out to students and others, as internet and phone services remain unreliable, to identify who wishes to return home. Preparations are underway to fly the first batch of evacuees to Delhi, while authorities stand ready to respond swiftly to evolving security concerns. Citizens have been urged to stay in contact with the mission and exercise caution amid the crisis. (PC: AP)
