Adnan Sami's staff Referred to as 'Indian dogs' at the Kuwait Airport; Sushma Swaraj comes to the Rescue

Adnan Sami and his staff members had a rather unpleasant experience in Kuwait recently. The singer has claimed that his staff was referred to as 'Indian dogs' at the Kuwait airport. Adnan, who was in Kuwait for a live performance, drew attention to the matter via tweets on Sunday. "We came to your city with love and our Indian brethren embraced us with it. You have no support. Kuwaiti airport immigration mistreated my staff for no reason and called them 'Indian dogs'! When you were contacted, you did nothing! How dare the Kuwaitis behave like this with arrogance," Adnan tweeted to the Indian Embassy in Kuwait.

Later, he also tagged Union Home Affairs Minister Rajnath Singh and Sushma Swaraj. Sushma Swaraj acknowledged Adnan's message, and asked him to "Please speak to me on phone."

He later thanked Sushma Swaraj for being so prompt with her reply. Later, when the Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju wrote to Adnan, assuring him that the "most dynamic" Sushma Swaraj was looking into the matter, the singer replied: "Thank you so much for your concern, my dear. Sushma Swaraj is a lady full of heart and she is in touch with me and is looking after our people. "I'm so proud that she is our foreign minister and looks after us all over the world."

As for the incident, it was a rather disrespectful way of treating Adnan and his team and we hope and expect that the matter is solved now.
