Rejected petition Repatriate the British nationals stranded in India

We want you to safely return British nationals to the UK from India amidst the Covid 19 pandemic.

More details

There are hundreds that have made themselves heard, I assume hundreds more who are also stranded, who face dangerous situations here in india.
Hotels/hostels do not want to accept bookings from foreigners, people are being forced out of accommodation. There are British people who are elderly, on life supporting medication, people who are alone in an increasingly hostile environment, we all want to get home and cannot due to restrictions.
We understand we need to comply with local government procedures but we cannot do this and remain safe.
