A youth from Hubballi has tweeted to External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj seeking her assistance to bring his Pakistani wife to India.
Twenty-two-year-old Daniel Henry Devanur reportedly married Silvia Noreen (21), his relative, at United Pentacostal Church at Youhana Colony in Lahore on June 25 last year.
It is said that after returning to India, he is unable to bring his wife back as no gazetted officer in Pakistan was reportedly ready to sign on the sponsorship letter of Silvia for getting visitor’s visa to India.
Now, Daniel has sought the help of Sushma Swaraj and others.
On Twitter, he has uploaded photos, the marriage certificate issued by the church and the marriage registration certificate issued in the name of Pakistan’s Punjab government. According to the tweet, he has sought the help of MP Pralhad Joshi and Leader of Opposition in Legislative Assembly Jagadish Shettar also.
Tahsildar Shashidhar Madyal confirmed that Daniel had approached him seeking acknowledgment for his wedding with a girl in Pakistan.
“How can we issue acknowledgement here as we cannot verify the authenticity of the certificates? I advised him to approach the appropriate authorities. If we get orders from the higher officials, we can conduct spot inspection and certify about his stay here,” he said.
