Minister of External Affairs helps Pakistani baby for treatment at Jaypee Hospital, Noida
Noida/Delhi: Hon’ble Minister of External Affairs of India, Smt Sushma Swaraj was highly praised for arranging medical visa to the family of 4 month old ailing Pakistani baby, Rohaan, for his treatment in India.
Rohaan, a resident of Lahore, Pakistan, who is suffering from a heart ailment will be coming to India on Monday 12th June, 2017. Rohaan has a hole in his heart and will be treated first by Paediatric Cardiologist, Dr. Ashutosh Marwah and later will undergo a heart surgery which will be performed by renowned Paediatric Cardiac Surgeon, Dr. Rajesh Sharma at Jaypee Hospital, Noida.
Given the unrest between India and Pakistan, both the countries are not sharing a pleasant relationship. Due to this issue, Rohaan’s parents were unable to get medical visa for their child’s treatment in India. As his parents had consulted doctors at Jaypee Hospital, Noida in the past, they wanted the surgery to take place here as his condition was critical, but failed to get a medical visa.
Helpless Mr. Kanwal Saadik, Rohaan’s father after trying every possible solution for visa permission, finally sought help from Hon’ble Indian Foreign Minister, Smt Sushma Swaraj.
