Rescue British citizens stranded in India because of Coronavirus lockdown.
Arrange with the Indian authorities to bring home British citizens who are stranded in India.
The total lockdown in India means that even if there were flights to the UK, people cannot travel to airports. My niece, her husband and three small children have no way of getting home. Things in India can only get worse, and we fear for their safety.
