MCD election: Wasn't roped in, says Sheila Dikshit on her absence from campaigning

Former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit today ending the murmur around her absence from the campaigns around the city for municipal elections said she was not roped in.

"No one asked me to campaign...I could not do it on my own," she said.

Senior Congress leader Dikshit also added that party's defeat in Delhi municipal elections does not spell any dark days ahead, "We are just going through a bad time," she said.

Assigning blame to weak campaigning, she said Congress squarely lost due to its feeble attempt at garnering vote.

According to early trends, the Congress party has been able to make in-roads with only 35 wards in kitty.
