Hyderabad (Telangana), April 04, (ANI): In a remarkable testament to the resilience and international cooperation, 210 students, including 86 determined young women, have triumphed over adversity to complete their MBBS degrees despite the chaos of the Ukraine-Russia conflict. Facilitated by Neo Consultancy and supported by a consortium of government bodies and institutions, these students, initially enrolled at Zaporizhzhia State Medical University in Ukraine, faced uncertainty and peril when war erupted. However, through concerted efforts and collaboration, they found sanctuary and opportunity in Uzbekistan, enabling them to fulfill their academic ambitions.The harrowing journey began when the conflict erupted, leaving the students stranded and fearful for their lives. Amidst the chaos, the foremost concern was their safety and future prospects. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, Neo Institute of Medical Sciences, in coordination with the National Medical Commission (NMC) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan, orchestrated a bold plan to relocate the students to Uzbekistan. This endeavor, endorsed by both Indian and Uzbekistani authorities, ensured the continuation of their medical education at Bukhara State Medical Institute.
