Srinagar, Jan 17: Dozens of students who returned home from Iran have said that the ground situation in the country is normal and far less serious than what is being portrayed on social media platforms, asserting that they neither witnessed unrest nor faced any threat during their stay.
The students, most of whom were pursuing medical and professional courses in Iran, said that while they heard about protests through news and online sources, daily life in the cities where they lived continued without disruption. They, however, said that internet services were not functional and there was no atmosphere of fear on campuses or in surrounding areas.
