India's ministry of fisheries, animal husbandry and dairying temporarily loosened its rules due to Indian citizens fleeing Ukraine and not wanting to leave their pets behind.
The department issued an office memorandum which described the alteration as a"one-time relaxation measure," Times of India reports.
Earlier this week, an Indian student living in Ukraine named Rishabh Kaushik made headlines when he refused to leave the country without his pet dog Malibu. The SJA Alumni Association posted about Kaushik's situation on its Facebook page, explaining that he was in Ukraine studying computer engineering when the conflict broke out. While his family, who were also living in Ukraine at the time, were able to leave, Kaushik refused to leave Malibu behind. When he wasn't able to secure the proper permissions, he decided to figure out alternate travel plans.
