Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh said on Friday, “Our embassy staff there (Kuwait) is constantly monitoring all the injured people in the hospital. We went there yesterday, visited every single person who was admitted in the five hospitals. I am happy to tell you that by God’s grace most of them will be discharged in two to three days.”
He added, “The hospital authorities are taking exceptionally good care of them. We met the minister for interior of Kuwait, and he assured that this kind of an incident will never happen again. They are very sensitive about it, concerned about it. The Kuwaiti authorities are very sad about the incident, and they have ensured us that they will take all steps so that these kinds of unfortunate incidents are not repeated again.”
