New Delhi, June 4 (IBNS): External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Sunday assured a Pakistani national medical visa for his father in case his matter was recommended by the neighbouring nation's adviser on foreign affairs Sartaj Aziz.

Swaraj gave the message to the Pakistani national on Twitter.

Presenting the case,  Saeed Ayub earlier tweeted: "@SushmaSwaraj i sold half of my assets 4 my father's liver transplant from india and now no medical visa for us.why only common man suffers."
