On Monday Mallika reached Twitter and made a request to Sushma Swaraj, the External Affairs Minister of India to help Evelien Holsken, Dutch NGO co-founder get her visa, as her visa application has been frequently rejected.
The 41-year-old actor wrote, “Ma’am @SushmaSwaraj co-founder of Dutch NGO #FreeAGirl has been repeatedly denied the visa to India, this NGO is doing superb work for trafficked children & women. Pls, help!”

Further, the Dirty Politics star said in a statement, “I feel very strongly about this issue and felt the urge to seek help in order to get support from the government and be granted visa allowance to the co-founder who has been tirelessly working for the benefit of Indian children and women.”
“Sushma Swarajji has always addressed issues such as these and I am hoping to seek a positive response from her,” she added.
Also, she works in collaboration with Free a Girl India, which fights against commercial sexual exploitation of children and human trafficking in India.
