Good news for Madhya Pradesh farmer stuck on Mars - Sushma Swaraj is coming

Minister of external affairs Sushma Swaraj, the champion of Indian nationals stuck in foreign lands (and Indian nationals who just can’t seem to get past the bureaucracy of sarkaari daftars), is loved both on and off Twitter. The minister takes her work seriously and always helps people who tweet to her in dire need.

Of course, not all people who tweet to her need actual help. Some of them tweet in jest. As was the recent case of a Karan Saini, who tweeted: "I am stuck on mars (sic), food sent via Mangalyaan (987 days ago), is running out, when is Mangalyaan-II being sent?"

Swaraj jovially replied, “Even if you are stuck on the Mars, Indian Embassy there will help you.”

When you are farmer from Madhya Pradesh stuck on Mars for real, things get a little weird. Are you going to get blind-sided by "Kisan Putra" Shivraj Singh Chouhan? Or is the MEA rockstar Sushma Swaraj going to save ye?

Hello, Sushmaji, I am a farmer from Madhya Pradesh. I'm stuck on Mars. 

I was on my way to Jupiter when I had to make a quick stop (sorry, Swachh Mars Abhiyan). My anti-national crew left me behind. 

No surprise, Vodafone and Jio have terrible connections here. I haven't been able to tweet for two weeks now.

But now that you have seen my tweet, can you please send someone over? 

Sushmaji...? Are you there?

Times like these, I wish I was a soldier.

Now that I am here, how about I...
