Indian physician and International Master of chess Anwesh Upadhyaya shared with the The Indian Express his fears and apprehensions at being stuck in his apartment alone in Kyiv (Kiev), Ukraine, where he is doing his apprenticeship as a gastroenterologist at one of the city hospitals. With the city under siege — and with a curfew being called until Monday — it is almost inevitable to fall prey to bad thoughts, although for now he still has enough to eat. “The Indian Embassy has asked people to stay indoors and not go out”, Upadhyaya said, in the hope that sooner or later they may “ensure a safe evacuation”, by a flight which he and many his compatriots are anxiously wishing. As for power and potable water supply, “so far everything is working fine by God’s grace”, he said. Photo: Valentyn Ogirenko/Reuters. |
