Under the shadow of the Russia-Ukraine war, students from all over the world studying in Ukraine are struggling to return to their homeland. Students of India are also slowly returning home. The Government of India has run many flights to bring the students to their homeland under Operation Ganga. The memoirs of the students who have returned to India are horrifying. In such a situation, the question arises that in the coming time, whenever the situation becomes normal in Ukraine, will the students who have returned home after leaving their studies, go back there to complete their studies?
When the Russo-Ukraine war had not started, some students were planning to return home. But it is heard that compulsory attendance for studies in colleges was ensured in Ukraine. That’s why the students were in Ukraine until the real war bugle sounded. And once the Russians started firing bombs, by that time it was becoming difficult for the students in Ukraine to return to their homeland.
Now that students have started returning to their respective countries, the question is whether this business of education in Ukraine will be able to return to its old level? Experts say that the situation does not seem to be normalizing in the near future. That is why colleges in Ukraine can take the help of online education to complete the studies of their students. Since most of the children have gone to take medical education, there is also a question that how a student can do medical studies online. It requires more practical knowledge.
Kanji Gosain, a student who had somehow saved her life from Ukraine, returned to the city of Rajkot, Gujarat, told the media that she was practicing in the third year of medicine in Ukraine. In the atmosphere of war, the senior students helped the junior students and took them to the outskirts. By helping each other, they have managed to come back after saving their lives. But his experience with the Ukrainian troops has been very unfortunate. He will never forget the way he was treated. Gosai said that she would no longer dare to go to Ukraine. If possible, I would like to study in Germany or Poland.
On the other hand, Himanshu Gohil, a student who somehow returned to Surat after crossing Ukraine’s border, told during a media interaction that not only foreign students, local residents of Ukraine are also leaving their country and going to neighboring countries. It can be understood from this how critical the situation is. He has returned after leaving his studies in the middle. Have completed 3 years of studies. In such a situation, how can he leave his studies without completing the full course? If given a chance, he will complete his medical studies by taking transfer to other country. But if no alternative facility is found, then they will be left with no option but to complete their studies again after the situation becomes normal in Ukraine. He has also taken education loan for his studies. So it is compulsion to complete studies somehow.
It remains to be seen what form the war between Ukraine and Russia takes in the coming days. Let’s hope that everything becomes normal and everyday life of people in the world gets back on track.
