his safe repatriation.Sarbjit's wife Sukhpreet Kaur, daughters
Swapndeep Kaur and Poonam pleaded Kumar to urge the Union government
to take up the issue at the earliest.Kumar assured the family of doing
the needful and said a notice was issued to Ministries of Foreign
Affairs and Home Affairs to ask about the government's effort and the
development in the case.Sarabjit's family members said it was the
right time for the government to take up the case of Sarbjit on
diplomatic level so that he could return to his family.The Indian
