As per news report of NDTV, "Leveraging the capacities of our Air Force will ensure that more people can be evacuated in a shorter time frame. It will also help deliver humanitarian aid more efficiently," sources told NDTV.  Indian Air Force is expected to deploy several C-17 aircraft as part of Operation Ganga from today. Earlier today, a flight carrying 182 Indians landed in Mumbai. The flight flew out of Romanian capital Bucharest, as Ukraine has closed its airspace. At least two other evacuation flights will bring back Indians today - one from Bucharest and one from Hungary's capital Budapest. PM Modi has also spoken to his counterparts in Romania and the Slovak Republic, Ukraine's neighbouring countries from where India is planning to evacuate its citizens, about evacuation efforts from their countries.
