Immediately after the news of the dying of an Indian scholar, Naveen SG, in Kharkiv, Ukraine, trickled in, a good friend of Naveen said he had postponed his plan to journey to India Monday and was scheduled to fly again Wednesday so that his juniors wouldn’t be left behind within the war-torn nation.
Neveen’s good friend Amit Vaishyar, who’s a year senior, talked to the media Monday and said, “A workforce took the danger to journey towards the Hungarian border and left.”. Naveen prompt ready and taking alongside juniors as they’re lower than a 12 months outdated in Ukraine. “He intended to leave Kharkiv Wednesday morning,” he explained. “Both Naveen and Vaishyar are from Karnataka.
“Whenever the curfew was lifted, we’d go out and buy groceries together.” I went to bed at 3.30 a.m. on Tuesday and awoke late. Naveen had departed at 6 a.m. to bring meals for all of us. Our bunker is around 50 metres away from the market. He sent a message to one of us at 7.58 a.m., indicating he was short on cash and asking for money to be transferred to his account. “We contacted his phone at 8.10 a.m., but a Ukrainian answered and claimed that he was no more” Vaishyar added.
Naveen, a fourth-year MBBS student from Chalageri village in Ranebennur taluk of Haveri district, died in a shelling incident in Kharkiv.
