Kidney offers pour in, touch Sushma Swaraj's heart
A host of dignitaries wished Ms Swaraj a speedy recovery and expressed the hope that would return back to her official work.
Bhopal/Chennai/New Delhi: A day after external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj tweeted about her kidney failure, a traffic constable of Madhya Pradesh Police on Thursday offered to donate one of his kidneys to her.
“I want to donate my kidney to you and my blood group is O positive,” traffic constable Gaurav Singh Dangi, 26, tweeted. “One can live with one kidney. There can be no better things to do than donate the other kidney to a needy person,” he said.
He is not alone. There are hundreds of others who have spontaneously responded in a similar vein after Ms Swaraj, admitted to AIIMS in New Delhi on November 15, tweeted that she was on dialysis and needed to undergo a kidney transplant.
“@sushmaSwaraj Although with responsibility of a 5 year-old-son, I can offer my kidney to u for nation’s good. I m O+. May Allah s.w.t help u!,” Ali Imran Naqvi tweeted.
“@SushmaSwaraj Mam If you wish. I am ready to donate my kidney for you. Nation needs your services,” tweeted her follower Nikhil Dadhich.
A host of dignitaries wished Ms Swaraj a speedy recovery and expressed the hope that would return back to her official work.
The responses left the minister overwhelmed. “My heartfelt thanks for your kind words and good wishes. Some friends have also offered their kidneys for my transplant. I have no words to express my deep sense of gratitude towards them,” Ms Swaraj tweeted.
“With your good wishes and Lord Krishna’s blessings, I will be able to come out of this situation,” she said.
