Three more Uttarakhand youths, stranded in Ugandan capital Kampala, are likely to return to Mumbai soon after the intervention of the Ministry of External Affairs.
Two Uttarakhand youths, who were part of the group of nine, are already back and three more are likely to arrive in Mumbai soon, an official release here said.
Nine youth of the hill state had landed in the Ugandan capital and were stuck there due to inadequate documents and money.
Release of five youth has been secured and negotiations are underway for the rest, it said.
Chief Minister Harish Rawat has thanked the MEA for securing their safe return from Uganda and assured that all their expenses from their arrival in Mumbai to their home will be met by the state government, an official release here said.
