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.

Malappuram (Kerala), Feb 19:  children of a couple in a span of nine years has raised suspicion among police personnel here who have registered a case following a complaint after a three-month-old child of the family died on Tuesday and was buried.

Police exhumed the body, which was buried in the morning, and took it to the district hospital at Tirur for post-mortem.

The infant was the sixth child of the couple, police said.

"A case has been registered (for unnatural death) in the matter to verify the death beyond any suspicion raised by locals since five other children of the couple had died in the past nine years," a senior police official said.

The couple had three boys and three girls of which the third girl child lived till the age of four and the rest died before turning one.

"The post-mortem will take place today itself.We are collecting the medical records of the children who had passed away earlier.

We will identify the cause of death after analysing the records and discuss the matter with forensic doctors," Tirur Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) said.

However, relatives claimed that there was nothing suspicious in the death of the children and that doctors have said it was due to some genetic disease.

"The post-mortem of the third child was conducted and the doctors said the death was due to some genetic problems. They said they were helpless," a relative said, adding that the family was ready to face any probe.

According to the locals, the couple had claimed that the children have died due to epilepsy.

Sources said the baby was taken to a hospital but was dead prior to reaching the hospital early this morning.
