On Tuesday, India gave a name to it's operation of evacuating its citizens from Afghanistan. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar called it "Operation Devi Shakti" and saluted the efforts of Indian Air Force and Air India.
"Op Devi Shakti continues. 78 evacuees from Kabul arrive via Dushanbe. Salute @IAF_MCC, @AirIndiain and #TeamMEA for their untiring efforts #DeviShakti " Jaishankar tweeted.
His tweet came hours after 78 people including 25 Indian nationals, were brought to New Delhi from Tajikistan's Dushanbe in special air flight on Tuesday.
India has so far evacuted more than 800 people since Taliban took over in Afghanistan. Thousands of Afghans have been crowding around the Kabul Airport for nearly a week in desperate attempt to flee the country fearing Taliban's brutality.
Op Devi Shakti continues.
