The Centre started the ‘Vande Bharat Mission’ on May 7 to help those stranded due to the novel coronavirus pandemic reach their destinations via international repatriation flights. The Vande Bharat Mission entered its fourth phase from July 3 onwards.
"Over 5.03 lakh Indians have returned home from 137 countries after the government launched the "Vande Bharat" evacuation mission on May 7 in view of the coronavirus pandemic," the Ministry of External Affairs said on Friday. "Considering that the initial target to bring stranded Indians with compelling reasons was only 2 lakh, this is a significant achievement," it said.
In a statement, the MEA said a total of 5,03,990 stranded Indians from 137 countries have returned to India after the commencement of the mega evacuation mission. It said Kerala received a maximum of 94,085 stranded Indians, followed by Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh.
