External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has sought a report from her officials over the denial of visa extension to Padma Shri awardee Ms Friederike Irina Bruning of Germany. Her visa is due to expire on the 25th of next month.
Ms Bruning, also known as Sudevi Dasi, takes care of around two thousand cows and calves in Mathura and had been doing it for the last 25 years. Most of the cows were rescued after being abandoned by their owners.
The 61-year-old has threatened to return the prestigious civilian award after her application was rejected.
