An Indian student named Harjot Singh was shot. He was then taken back to Kyiv. He is currently being treated at a hospital in Kyiv. 

Meanwhile a video fo Harjot has gone viral. It doesn't matter if you send a charter (plane) after death...God has given me a second life, I want to live it. I request the embassy to evacuate me from here, provide me facilities like a wheelchair, help me with documentation, said Harjot.

"No support from the Indian embassy yet. I have been trying to get in touch with them, every day they say we will do something but no help yet," says Harjot Singh in the video.

This is Feb 27 incident. We were 3 people in a cab on our way to the 3rd checkpoint where we were told to return due to security reasons. While coming back, multiple bullets were fired at our car due to which I sustained multiple bullet injuries, said Harjot Singh.
