Veteran Sheila Dikshit's comeback is no surprise in Delhi

Delhi | Friday | 11th January, 2019

Summary:

Sheila Dikshit's immense popularity in Delhi has brought her back into active politics almost six years after she took a hiatus. "There were other names too like Devender Yadav, Rajkumar Chauhan in the reckoning but none to match Dikshit's influence on Delhi," sources said. Yadav and Chauhan along with Haroon Yusuf will be three working presidents in view of Dikshit's health and age. The Congress appointed her as Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee President after Ajay Maken stepped down over "serious health issues". While Maken reportedly has health problems, his vehement opposition towards the new found friendship also paved way for Dikshit's elevation..
