New Delhi:
Kidney has no religious labels, this is what external affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, who is undergoing treatment for renal failure, tweeted while thanking a Muslim man who offered her his kidney.
64-year-old Swaraj has been offered kidneys by scores of people since Wednesday when she said on Twitter that she was in hospital due to kidney failure and was undergoing tests for a transplant.
"Thank you very much brothers. I am sure, kidney has no religious labels," she tweeted.

Another Muslim Nyamath Ali Shaik also offered his kidney to Swaraj saying he was ready to donate his kidney, if need be.
Another Twitter follower Jaan Shah also said he was ready to offer his kidney to her. Swaraj has been flooded with wishes from politicians cutting across party lines as well as from a cross-section of society.
Swaraj also exuded confidence of being able to come out of the health condition with good wishes of people and blessings of God.
