Anguished families from Haryana are set to stage a major protest in New Delhi tomorrow, demanding immediate government intervention to rescue their sons who they say were deceptively recruited into the Russian army under false pretenses.
The desperate relatives claim their young men were promised lucrative security jobs in Dubai but instead found themselves forcibly deployed to conflict zones in Ukraine, facing life-threatening situations they never signed up for.
From Dreams to Nightmare
What began as hopeful journeys toward better employment opportunities abroad has transformed into a parent's worst nightmare. Multiple families report their sons are now fighting on Russian front lines against their will, with limited communication and constant danger.
"We trusted the agents who promised safe security jobs in Gulf countries," shared one distressed family member. "Instead, our children were trafficked to Russia and forced into military service. We fear for their lives every single day."
Government Action Demanded
The planned dharna at Jantar Mantar aims to pressure Indian authorities into:
- Immediate diplomatic intervention with Russian authorities
- Safe repatriation of all Indian citizens trapped in conflict zones
- Investigation and action against illegal recruitment agencies
- Enhanced consular support for affected families
This alarming situation highlights the growing concern about human trafficking networks exploiting Indian youth seeking employment abroad. The families urge the Ministry of External Affairs to treat this as an urgent humanitarian crisis requiring immediate resolution.
As the protest prepares to unfold in the nation's capital, anxious families continue to hope for their sons' safe return while exposing the dangerous realities of unregulated overseas employment channels.
