Another 'Bajrangi Bhaijan' tale unfolds, of Salman Ahmed left in Pakistan

August 08, 2015 20:27

Just like Gita, an Indian who lived in Pakistan for nearly 15 years before efforts were initiated to bring her back, another 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' tale is unfolding as 24-year-old Salman Ahmed too needs India's assistance to get back home -- after over two decades.

"Thank you Sushma Swaraj for helping Gita," Pakistani human rights activist Ansar Burney, who has played a pivotal role in pursuing Gita's case with the Indian government, said, adding, "But it is my earnest request to her that she should help Salman Ahmed also. There should not be any discrimination on the basis of religion that Gita, a Hindu, received help, but Salman, a Muslim, did not."
