Sushma Swaraj Fires Back at Twitter Troll with a Powerful Lesson in Religious Harmony
Sushma Swaraj who is known to be active on social media, took to Twitter to fire back at a Twitter troll who had insinuated that she has a bias towards Muslims.
It is no secret that Sushma Swaraj, the current minister of External Affairs, is not only active on social media but also uses it to provide assistance to those who seek her help.
While she uses her platform to primarily reach out to those in need, most recently she took to Twitter to fire back at a troll who had insinuated that Swaraj only aided Muslims who seek visas and harassed Hindus.
Modi Ji @narendramodi Your Sushma @SushmaSwaraj,Only take care Of Muslim Visa. But Hindus are getting harrased to get India Visa. VERY UPSET

Instead of ignoring it, Swaraj took the opportunity to not only respond to the troll but also schooled the account user on how all Indians ought to be the same in front of the nation’s leaders and by default, everyone else as well.

She noted that as long as a person is Indian, their religion, caste, or state did not matter to her.
India is my country. Indians are my people. The caste, state, language or religion is not relevant for me. https://t.co/z59339vjGt

Turns out it was a busy day for the minister online, because not only did she take time to hit back at Twitter trolls, Swaraj also responded to a change.org petition asking to help a septuagenarian couple in Andhra Pradesh obtain visas for their disabled daughter.
