Amid escalating concerns, RLP president and MP Hanuman Beniwal penned urgent appeals to PM Narendra Modi and Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar over Indians vanishing in Russia. Fraudulent job lures by rogue agents have ensnared youth from multiple states into the Russian military quagmire.
Wednesday brought raw emotion to Beniwal’s doorstep, as 24 relatives bared their souls. Loved ones in perilous zones remain ghosts—no sightings, no signals, just tormenting voids. Families from Rajasthan to Jammu teeter on despair’s edge after prolonged blackouts.
Leveraging Winter Session facts, Beniwal detailed the toll: 211 implicated, 27 perished, 121 homeward bound, 63 in jeopardy. His directives? Expedite returns, bolster family aid, enforce transparency. This amplifies his year-end parliamentary salvo branding the episode a profound human rights breach.
The deception playbook is textbook—visa facades masking combat drafts in Europe’s flashpoint. Beniwal decried systemic lapses enabling such exploitation. With diplomatic gears turning, the onus shifts to New Delhi for closure.
Beniwal’s tenacity fuses personal advocacy with national advocacy, rallying for justice. As the count of safe returns rises, the imperative endures: no Indian left behind. This unfolding drama compels a reckoning on protecting citizens venturing abroad in turbulent times.
