Personal life During the times of Emergency, on 13 July 1975, Sushma Swaraj married Swaraj Kaushal, a peer and fellow advocate at the Supreme Court of India. The Emergency movement brought together the couple, who then teamed up for the defence of the socialist leader George Fernandes.

The couple have a daughter, Bansuri, who is a graduate from Oxford University and a Barrister at Law from Inner Temple. Sushma Swaraj 's sister Vandana Sharma is an associate professor of political science in a government college for girls in Haryana. Swaraj 's brother Dr. Gulshan Sharma is an Ayurveda doctor based in Ambala. On 10 December she underwent for a kidney transplant at AIIMS, with the organ being harvested from a living unrelated donor. The surgery was successful. Controversy Swaraj, while being the external affairs minister of the NDA government, issued an NOC against a specific query raised by the UK government about the Indo - UK bilateral relationship if UK granted permission to Lalit Modi, an Indian fugitive in a cricket scandal who had been staying in Britain since 2010, to attend his wife 's surgery in Portugal. She conveyed to the British High Commissioner that they should examine Modi 's request as per their rules and wrote `` if the British government chooses to give travel documents to Lalit Modi - -- that will not spoil our bilateral relations ''. However, some people mentioned this incident as Swaraj helping Lalit Modi in the travel visa process. On 12 August 2015, leader of Indian National Congress, Mallikarjun Kharge, moved an Adjournment Motion in the lower house seeking resignation of Sushma Swaraj due to her alleged conduct in this regard. Initially, the motion was rejected by the Speaker, but was accepted on Swaraj 's insistence. Intervening in the motion, Swaraj clarified that Lalit Modi 's right of residency was not cancelled since the Enforcement Directorate did not file an extradition request. The Adjournment Motion was subsequently rejected with voice vote.
