HYDERABAD: Singer Adnan Sami, who went to
Kuwait for a performance, has complained against Kuwaiti immigration authorities for calling his staff 'Indian dogs'. The union external affairs minister
Sushma Swaraj promptly took note of
Adnan Sami's complaint and tweeted to him to call her and speak to her on phone. "Please speak to me on phone," she tweeted.
"Thank you so much for your concern my dear. Sushma Swaraj is a lady full of heart and she is in touch with me and is looking after our people… I'm so proud that she is our foreign minister & looks after us all over the world," (sic) he said later. Adnan Sami was in Kuwait for a concert organised by the Indian Cultural Society.
Because of the unsavoury incident at the airport, Adnan Sami had tweeted to Sushma Swaraj also complaining about the Indian Embassy in Kuwait that it did not respond to his pleas for help.
"We came to your city with love and our Indian brethren embraced us with it. You gave no support. Kuwaiti airport immigration mistreated my staff for no reason and called them 'Indian Dogs'! When you were contacted you did nothing!! How dare d Kuwaitis behave like this with arrogance?!" (sic) Adnan Sami tweeted complaining about the Indian Embassy in Kuwait.
Union minister of state for home Kiran Rijiju who also reacted to Adnan Sami's complaint said: "Sorry to learn that. Our most dynamic external affairs minister Sushma Swaraji has acknowledged your matter. Pls speak to her now." (sic)
Adnan Sami then spoke to minister Sushma Swaraj and gave her the details thanking her for 'ever so prompt reply'.
"This is the ugly truth with which the local airport Kuwaiti people treated. My Indian brothers and I will never tolerate that," Adnan Sami said in one of the responses he gave to people to express his unhappiness that for being treated badly in Kuwait.
