Repatriate UK citizens stuck in India
The UK Government must organise flights to rescue UK citizens who are stuck in India due to the Covid-19 lockdown.
India has been in a state of lockdown since 23rd March, and all travel (by plane or by road) has been restricted until 14th April 2020.
There are many UK citizens trapped in India with diminishing supplies of food, water, and medication, which places the lives of those dependent on medication at risk.
There is also a chance that this lockdown may be extended, which is why the UK Government must take an active stance to bring our citizens back home.
