Swinging into action, Swaraj on Wednesday replied to Shoaib that the visa had been granted and the Union Minister also prayed for the child’s “early recovery”.
“Yes, we are allowing Visa for your 7 years old daughter’s open heart surgery in India. We also pray for her early recovery,” replied Sushma.
