India urges citizens to avoid Iran travel as security situation worsens
The Indian government has issued a fresh travel advisory urging its citizens to postpone all non-essential travel to Iran due to the country's deteriorating security situation. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has also advised Indians currently in Iran to remain alert, follow instructions issued by local authorities, and stay in close contact with the Indian Embassy in Tehran.
The advisory comes as tensions in the region continue to escalate following recent military exchanges and growing instability across Iran. Officials have warned that the security situation remains unpredictable, which could affect transportation, communication, and access to essential services.
Indian nationals have been encouraged to monitor official updates regularly and register with the embassy if they have not already done so. The government said the advisory is a precautionary measure aimed at ensuring the safety of Indian citizens.
Travellers planning visits to Iran for business, tourism, education, or religious purposes have been urged to delay their trips until conditions improve. Authorities continue to closely monitor developments in the region and have assured that further updates will be issued if the situation changes.
