Minister of Foreign Affairs Sushma Swaraj on Wednesday showed her witty side on Twitter while helped people with visa-related issues on the social media site. She gave us a taste of her humour when a user replied to her tweet.
A Twitter user, kianiistarr, who is currently staying in New York, had expressed her concern that she needed help on issuing of visa as her wedding was held up. Soon the Union Minister came to her rescue and assured that she should not postpone her wedding due to visa.
