In the absence of any data on Indian students studying abroad, the government has launched a registration module for them so they could be reached in case of emergency.
"We have no data of Indian students studying abroad. We have therefore, started a Students Registration Module on madad.gov.in/," Ms Sushma Swaraj tweeted.
"I request all Indian students to register themselves on this module. This will be of immense help."
"In case of any emergency, our Embassy will be able to reach you. While abroad - Indian Embassy is your family," she said in a series of tweets.
