External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj today assured help to the family of an Indian, who died in Italy, in bringing back his body.

A man named Didar Singh Bhatti, in a tweet, said Naik Singh was working in Ladispoli, Italy, to support his family in India.

Naik Singh died in Ladispoli and his family is really poor and cannot afford to get his body back for the last rites. They require help for getting his body back, he said, seeking Swaraj's help.

Responding to the request, Swaraj asked the Indian mission in Italy to help in bringing Naik Singh's body back.

Swaraj also asked the Indian envoy in Kyrgyzstan to help an Indian woman stranded at the Kyrgyzstan airport after her passport tore.

Another Indian, who is studying in the Philippines, also sought Swaraj's help claiming that there were "issues" students were facing at the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA, Las Pinas. Swaraj asked him to get in touch with the Indian Embassy for help.
