The most beloved minister in the cabinet, Sushma Swaraj now has an official stamp for being loved globally as well. She has been listed under the ‘15 Global Thinkers of the year’ by Foreign Affairs magazine and even PM Modi took to Twitter to congratulate her.
Very proud to see our hardworking EAM @SushmaSwaraj part of the @ForeignPolicy Global Thinkers list 2016! Congrats. https://t.co/92H4a2drCI
— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) December 14, 2016The magazine praised her "for fashioning a novel brand of Twitter diplomacy”. Sushma Swaraj has consistently lent out a helping hand anyone and everyone who needed it. In this digital age, where everyone is now accessible, very few considerate leaders like her have used this medium as a way to reach out to the people and truly serve them. She was active on Twittter even when her health took a toll when she was hospitalised recently.

The magazine further quoted, "In July, Sushma Swaraj, India's External Affairs minister, tweeted to roughly 6 million followers that 10,000 Indian workers employed inside the kingdom faced a 'food crisis.' What followed was a week-long social media operation in which Swaraj posted information for migrants about rations provided by the Indian Embassy, claims for unpaid wages, and government-organized transportation home”. Swaraj has already earned the tag of ‘Supermom Of The State’ by The Washington Post.

Other notable leaders who made it to the list include Justin Trudeau, Angela Merkel and Hillary Clinton also. We need more leaders like Sushma Swaraj who is a stellar example of leadership in the country.
