This tweet comes after Deora dismissed Congress' Delhi in-charge PC Chacko's statement in which he blamed late party leader and former Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit for their performance in the last week’s assembly elections in the national capital.
"Sheila Dikshit ji was a remarkable politician & administrator. During her tenure as Chief Minister, Delhi was transformed and Congress was stronger than ever. Unfortunate to see her being blamed after her death. She dedicated her life to INC India and the people of Delhi," Deora had tweeted, with a snippet of Chacko's statement embedded.
