Junior foreign minister VK Singh will be part of India's Sankat Mochan operation that will fly into Juba, South Sudan, today, to evacuate Indian nationals stuck in the country's civil war.
Two C-17 transport planes have been pressed into service to pull out about 250 Indians.
VK Singh will be accompanied by secretary (economic relations) Amar Sinha, who is in charge of relations with Africa, and joint secretary Satbir Singh who handles West Asia and North Africa.
The planes will land at 1.30 pm India time and aim to return within four hours of landing, said MEA officials.
