In a heartwarming letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the newly elected External Affairs Minister – S Jaishankar, an 11-year-old Polish girl has written how she misses India, and she and with her mother wants to get an entry back to India after the Indian government blacklisted them.

Alicja Wanatko, in her handwritten letter, has expressed her immense love for the country. She wrote that despite not being an Indian citizen, she still calls India her “home”.

Alicja wrote in the letter that she misses Goa where she was studying. “ I love my school in Goa, the beautiful nature and I am missing my volunteering in the animal rescue centre there where I was helping to take care of cows.”

Stressing on her education, she said she was not able to attend her last semester as she and her mother were forced to leave the country.

The Indian government blacklists Alicja’s mother Marta Kotlarska, who is an artist and photographer for overstaying in the country. She had entered the country multiple times with B-2 business visa.

On March 24, Marta was barred from entering the country at the Kempegowda airport, Bengaluru, from Sri Lanka, where she had gone to renew her visa for India. She waited for a couple of days in Thailand before she was allowed to enter India on a condition to pick up her daughter and leave the country within a few days.

Alicja in her letter also evoked her love for Lord Shiva and the Nanda Devi mountain. “It feels like everything is just destroyed again. I pray to Shiva and Nanda Devi to help us and I have decided to write to you because you are the most powerful person that can help me and my mum come back to India, my home. Please help us and allow us to remove us from this blacklist,” she added.

She concluded the letter by saying that she is in Sri Lanka with her mother, but she misses her old life in her “favourite” country- India. “I am now with my mum, but I am missing my old life in my favourite country more than ever. I feel so alone away from everything I have always known in India. I know my animals will be so confused without me and I cannot sleep without feeling angry or upset”, she adds.

Earlier in April, Marta had pleaded the then External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj to let her enter the country. She also claimed that due to “misunderstanding” she was blacklisted by the Foreigner Regional Registration Office in Chamoli in Uttarakhand.
