New Delhi: In a humanitarian gesture, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Monday directed the Indian Embassy in South Sudan to provide insulin to a number of Indians, suffering from diabetes, in the violence-torn country. Swaraj's direction to the mission came after one Neha Himesh sought her intervention through a tweet, saying the patients struck in a hotel in Juba urgently need insulin. "I have passed on the details to our Embassy in South Sudan. The Insulin/medicines will reach them soon," Swaraj said. "Our Ambassador in South Sudan Srikumar Menon has spoken to your relatives”.
