| External Affairs Minister SM Krishna has said the issue of Indian-American Kairi Shepherd, who is facing the prospect of forcibly being sent back to her country of birth, was raised with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
"I put it across to Secretary Clinton that the United States would have to look at it from the humanitarian point of view," Mr Krishna said on Wednesday.
"On issues like this, I think specific assurances are not given, but they have taken note of Government of India concerns that this be addressed on humanitarian basis," he told reporters at a news conference in response to a question on Kairi, for whom immigration authorities have initiated deportation proceedings.
