Sushma Swaraj, Former Foreign Minister of India Passed Away

Sushma Swaraj, Former Foreign Minister and BJP Stalwart, Passes Away at 67 After Heart Attack

New Delhi: Senior BJP leader and former foreign minister Sushma Swaraj passed away a while ago at AIIMS on Tuesday. The BJP veteran, who suffered a massive heart attack, died at the age of 67.

Her last Twitter post was about thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the government’s move on Kashmir stating that she was waiting for this day in her lifetime.

Known for being the 'Rescuer', Swaraj's ministry rescued over 900,000 Indians trapped, trafficked, held hostage or unlawfully arrested around the world over a period of four years. Including the 156 Indians evaced from Juba in 2016. Her quick wit and maternal demeanor was known to defuse any situation and disarm the crudest of adversaries. In her time, the foreign ministry parleyed with 186 members of the UN, she negotiated with everyone from ISIS to Taliban and chicoms, every time winning a favorable outcome for her Govt (if not the hostage). Always fun to travel with, a true friend in need and a human before a politician, which in India is rare.
