Troll calls Sushma Swaraj 'Visa Mata'; here is how she responded

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj (PTI)

New Delhi: External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Monday wittily slammed a user who tried to troll her by calling her ‘Visa Mata’ (Mother of visa). The user had asked her why she was not giving citizenship status to Hindu and Sikh refugees from Pakistan, while addressing her as ‘Visa Mata’ in his tweet. Swaraj replied to the user by addressing him as ‘Priya Putra’ (Dear son). She said that this matter does not fall under the Ministry of External Affairs but a matter that falls under the Ministry of Home Affairs. The user deleted his tweet after getting replied back by the minister.

प्रिय पुत्र - आपको यह जानकारी दे दूँ की नागरिकता के मामले गृह मंत्रालय के अधीन आते हैं. विदेश मंत्रालय के अंतर्गत नहीं. आयुष्मान भव https://t.co/l2XU9PpdXQ

Ministry of external affairs has been at the centre of the trolls after transferring a passport official and granting visa to an interfaith couple in Lucknow. She had then liked many of the offensive tweets and even started a poll asking her followers how many of them approve of such tweets. A follower, Sonam Mahajan had questioned the minister's role in the transfer of a passport department official for allegedly humiliating the interfaith couple. She said that she would wait for Swaraj to block her. To which Swaraj  had shot back and said "Intezaar kyon? Lijiye block kr diya. (Why wait? Here you go, you're blocked)".

Intezaar kyon ? Lijiye block kr diya. https://t.co/DyFy3BSZsM
