Last month Harjot was trying to escape from Kyiv to Lviv via train but was unable to board as Ukrainian troops stopped him. He then took a taxi, with two other boys, when he was shot at multiple times and his leg got fractured.
Harjot, a native of Chhatarpur in Delhi, is a student in Kyiv learning the language and worked as an IT specialist before the conflict began.
Meanwhile, fresh advisories are issued by the Indian Embassy in Hungary and Ukraine for the Indian nationals.
