Mansi Sheth

@British_Airways It's been 2 hours. €8 is the best you can do?? How am I to get home when I land in London that late at night? Spend £150 on a taxi or take 2 night buses at 1:30 am that will take 3 hours to get me home? Do better! #flightdelay #BritishAirways

@FromTheReal @NickZaveri @MEAIndia @PMOIndia Yes, thank you for asking:)

@MansiSheth20 @NickZaveri @MEAIndia @PMOIndia Is he home safely now Mansi?

@MEAIndia @PMOIndia My father is stranded at Khartoum Airport and we are all worried for his safety. Please help him get home. #SudanUprising

@DrSJaishankar @MEAIndia @MOS_MEA @PMOIndia @MirrorNow Yesterday my family were told they would be "200%" put on the flight today and today they have yet again been told "tomorrow". I am literally in tears as I'm typing this message. Please stop toying with us, bring them home.

@DrSJaishankar @MEAIndia @MOS_MEA This despite my family having received an NOC to enter Jeddah on medical grounds. Indian gov/embassy insists they have not received any such document.

@DrSJaishankar Health/humanitarian grounds means nothing to the Indian Mission in Sudan. Not responding/ give any clarity while my family bleeds money every day while sharing their room with rats. My father has run out of his medication but even that fact is ignored by the mission at Port.

Another #OperationKaveri flight lands in Ahmedabad. 231 more passengers have reached home safely.

@MEAIndia We were told indian passport holders AS WELL AS OCI card holders were going to be evacuated

@vkotwal1015 @MirrorNow @shreyadhoundial And my family are still being denied evacuation

@MansiSheth20 @MirrorNow @shreyadhoundial

I understand OCIs don't have priority but really thought that @EoI_Khartoum would prioritise proof of age and serious health conditions. You like to tell the world that you evacuate non-Indians too, well why is my father, still stuck?

I have tried 1) media interviews 2)social media 3) tapping into every single contact and the only thing we hear is "Ho jayega Aaj kal mein." All I hear from MEA control room "helpline" is "OK we will see."

@vkotwal1015 @MirrorNow @shreyadhoundial Control room's response was "Please check with the Indian embassy". This had already been done earlier in the day. No further assistance.

@MansiSheth20 @MirrorNow @shreyadhoundial MEA has established a Control Room to offer information and assistance to those affected. The hotline numbers include 1800 11 8797 (toll-free), +91-11-23012113, +91-11-23014104, +91-11-23017905 ,+91 9968291988, Via email at situationroom@mea.gov.in.

@vkotwal1015 @DrSJaishankar @MEAIndia Officials have said that but on the ground right before boarding my father was sent back due to OCI. At the last minute.

@MansiSheth20 @DrSJaishankar @MEAIndia Indian officials already said they will bring back indian passport holders and oci card holders .dnt worry

@MirrorNow @shreyadhoundial Please help/share

Evacuation going on, but after an entire day of standing in line, registering, and getting clearance to board the flight from Port Sudan-Jeddah, my dad wasn't allowed to board because he has an OCI?? This can't be happening. Please help @DrSJaishankar @MEAIndia

@DrSJaishankar My father was turned away at the aircraft this evening at the very last second due to OCI status. After 12+ hrs of waiting, registration, approvals etc.

Another #OperationKaveri flight comes to Mumbai. 246 more Indians come back to the motherland.

@EoI_Khartoum Were aware of OCI status & health issues. My father got all the necessary documents and approvals and was ASSURED a seat today. Now he's being told to wait until MONDAY?? This is not done. Please bring my dad back. #OperationKaveri
