On several occasions in past, the BJP leader has charmed her Twitter followers with witty one-liners and her great sense of humour.

She once told a user, who had tagged her in a tweet relating to a refrigerator issue, that she cannot help him as she was "busy with human beings in distress".

Sushma Swaraj has been a prominent member of PM Narendra Modi's previous government. However, she did not contest the 2019 Lok Sabha election citing health issues.
