A girl from Haryana, who is studying medicine in Ukraine, has reportedly refused to leave the war-torn country as she wants to take care of her landlord’s young kids.
A Facebook user named Savita Jakhar has penned an incredible story of a 17-year-old girl from Haryana who gave up her chance to get evacuated from Ukraine just to look after the three young kids of her landlord, who joined the Ukrainian forces to fight against advancing Russian troops.
According to Report, the girl is identified as Neha, the daughter of an Indian Army soldier who lost his life a couple of years ago. Apparently, she got admitted to a medical college in Ukraine.
In her post, Savita said that Neha, one of her close friends’ daughters, is trapped in Kyiv amidst the ongoing conflict. She said that the girl did not find any space in the hostel as she went to study medicine in Ukraine. So she rented a room with a loving family with three children, Jakhar said in her post.
However, a day before yesterday, the father of children joined the army to fight the Russians, while the mother and her three children were sent to a bunker. The 17-year-old Haryana girl insisted that she travel with the family instead of returning to India.

“My friend tried hard to contact the embassy to get him out of there, but the girl does not want to come back, leaving those three children and their mother alone in such difficult times. Despite millions of efforts of mother, the girl is stubborn to stay there till the end of the war. I’m wondering what is encouraging that child to stand with that family in such difficult times?” wrote Savita in her post.
Speaking to The Tribune, Savita said that Neha’s family members and acquaintances are trying to persuade her to return to India, however, she has plainly and firmly refused to do so.
“We keep on hearing blasts outside, but we are fine so far,” she reportedly said to her family friend recently.
