VK Singh to address complaints of distressed Indians: Sushma Swaraj

New Delhi, Jan 29: Having earned goodwill of distressed Indians abroad by helping them even at odd hours, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has announced that the complaints of the diaspora will be now handled by her ministerial colleague V K Singh.

"Videshon mein fanse Bhartiyon ke mudde ab @Gen_VKSingh dekhte hain. Unhe @MEAQuery pr sampark karein. Gen VK Singh apki madad karenge (the issues pertaining to Indians stuck abroad are being looked after by Singh. Please contact him. He will help)," Swaraj said in a tweet earlier this week.

Since taking charge in 2014, Swaraj used to respond to almost each and every request made by distressed Indians through twitter and otherwise.

She had made it a point to the Ministry officials as well as Indian missions that problems facing Indians abroad must be addressed sympathetically. Swaraj's prompt response to the problems of distressed Indians had earned her goodwill.
