Dubai, Jan 20: Tweets from Indian external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj helped an Indian woman expedite a visit visa to visit her critical husband admitted at a hospital in Dubai, UAE.

Diplomatic missions, prompted by a tweet from the Swaraj, intervened to help process a UAE visit visa for Garima (Twitter handle: @agg_garim) over the weekend. Garima's tweets addressed at the minister revealed that her husband had suffered a brain stroke, and required an urgent visa under medical emergency.

Garima, who has been actively tweeting about her husband's situation since January 17, revealed that her husband could've suffered an Ischaemic stroke.

She tweeted @SushmaSwaraj on Thursday night, "Dear @SushmaSwaraj mam, my husband is in critical condition in Dubai, brain stroke. I applied for an urgent visa under medical emergency. Though I hope the visa should come any moment, mam, please help. Mam, tomorrow UAE embassy is closed for Friday. Please help."

Her tweet was retweeted over 1,500 times, and the minister replied to her tweets early Saturday morning, saying, "I am sorry to know this. Rest assured we will definitely help you." Tagging the Consulate General of India's Twitter handle, Swaraj urged Consulate General Vipul to look into the matter. She tweeted again saying, "I have also asked Vipul our @cgidubai to provide all help to your husband in the hospital and keep you informed."

Officials at the CGI revealed that her visa has been processed and she can travel to the UAE in the next couple of hours. An official at the Consulate said, "Our representatives have also visited the hospital and met their relatives. We will continue to provide them with help." Replying to Khaleej Times, Garima also revealed that her husband's condition has improved since Friday afternoon and is expected to leave to Dubai Friday night.

Two contradtictions. One is Modi and another one is Sushma. Modi stands for communalism and safforn terror. Sushma stands for great humanity.

Bengaluru, Apr 24: The Karnataka Health Department is likely to shift the 119 accused in Padarayanapura violence to Bengaluru's Haj Bhavan from Ramnagar Jail.

This comes after two accused out of 121, who were shifted to Ramnagar jail, tested positive for coronavirus. They have been shifted to Victoria Hospital.

A ruckus erupted in Padarayanapura on Sunday allegedly over the shifting of 15 secondary contacts of corona positive patients to a quarantine facility by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) officials.

Padarayanapura is recognised as a 'red zone'. When BBMP officials went to shift the suspected COVID-19 patients, some people created a ruckus, broke a barricade and removed the police post in the area.
