Amid lockdown, several students are currently stranded in Rajasthan's Kota. The students have urged the Odisha government to bring them back as they are in a state of panic and distress. A student said, "We students are taking medical coaching in Kota. All our trains have been cancelled due to lockdown and we are not able to go home. Over 100 positive cases have been detected so far in Kota and two corona infected cases detected in an adjacent hostel. We are in a state of panic and stressed." On the other hand, representatives of parents met with ADM Rourkela and sought help from the government to bring their children back.
