    Ms Swaraj's comment came in response to a tweet by a netizen who approached her with a news item in Polish media about the "death" of an Indian student after being beaten.

    "Racist issue similar to US, the person shouted at him and then start hitting," a tweet from one Amit Agnihotri marked to Ms Swaraj had said.

    To this External Affairs Minister first responded last night: "I have just spoken to the Indian Ambassador in Poland and asked for a report".

    Then after an hour, she wrote again, "There was an incident of beating. Fortunately, he has survived. We are inquiring into all aspects of the incident".

    She also retweeted a message from Indian Ambassador in Poland, Ajay Bisaria wherein the envoy said: "Prelim enquiry suggests student attacked in Poznan tram on Wed. Thank God, he survived. Getting details."
