We help even if you are stuck on Mars : Sushma Swaraj's jocular tweet goes viral

New Delhi, June 8 (IBNS) : A tweet by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj went viral on Thursday as she said in a lighter vein that even if an Indian citizen is stuck up in the space, the Government is there to reach with assistance.

"Even if you are stuck on the Mars, Indian Embassy there will help you," Swaraj, one of the most followed leaders with over eight million followers,  tweeted in the morning.

Her humourous post  came in response to a tweet by one  Karan Saini, who joked being "stuck on Mars" without food and questioned when India's next Mars mission was due.

"@SushmaSwaraj I am stuck on mars, food sent via Mangalyaan (987 days ago), is running out, when is Mangalyaan-II being sent ?"

Along with  Swaraj, India's space agency ISRO was tagged on the tweet.

Swaraj replied:  "Even if you are stuck on the Mars, Indian Embassy there will help you."

This  response went viral. Swaraj, one of the most followed leaders on twitters, is known to have sorted out many individual problems online and activated Indian embassies in different countries to take up the crisis of  any Indian citizen for a solution.
