New Delhi: Looks like our External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj is not only the most beloved politician in India, but in Pakistan too. On Thursday night, in a series of tweet exchange, a woman from Karachi in Pakistan wrote, “Lots and lost of love and respect from here. Wish you were our Prime Minister, this country would've changed!”
The Pakistani national, Hijaab Asif, requested Swaraj to grant her an Indian Visa in Islamabad. The later promptly directed the Indian High Commission in Islamabad to issue a visa for accessing medical facility in India. Swaraj also directed Gautam Bambawale, the Indian High Commissioner in Pakistan, to register Asif's plea.
Asif, happy with Swaraj's prompt response, tweeted:
@SushmaSwaraj what do I call you? Superwoman? God? No words to describe your generosity! Love you maam Can't stop praising you in tears!

She further tweeted:
Our government is corrupt, we don't hate India. I've been to India and I swear I love India and the Indians. In fact, everyone here does!!

Asif, was requesting on the behalf of a patient - Shabahat Abbas Taqvi, who is suffering from liver ailment and needs urgent treatment in India. "Dear ma'am, spoke to DHC (Deputy High Commissioner) in Islamabad, told the patient's current condition and he said it's all up to you (Sushma Swaraj). If you allow," Asif had tweeted earlier.
Swaraj along with woman, took a collective dig at Pakistan's Foreign Affairs Minister Sartaj Aziz.
@Hijaab_asif Kya aap jaise serious case mein bhi Sartaj Aziz sahib ne chitthi dene se mana kr diya ? /1
