Congress leader Digvijaya Singh, who had described Sushma Swaraj as a "better" PM candidate than Narendra Modi, today asked her to give him some lessons in history, saying he is "lacking in ideas" and "steals" Congress slogans. He also thanked Swaraj for her barb that she also thinks that Digvijaya Singh is a better candidate than Rahul Gandhi.

"Thanks Sushmaji for paying me a compliment on a day when I called Modi a Megalomaniac Psychopath Liar! Give him some lessons in History!," Singh commented on Twitter.

Launching a strong attack against Modi yesterday, Singh had wondered why BJP cannot field a "better leader" like Sushma Swaraj as its prime ministerial candidate.

Swaraj, however, was quick to dismiss Singh's comments with the retort, "Even I think Digvijay Singhji is a better candidate than Rahul Gandhi".

Last year also when Digvijaya Singh had said that it was Swaraj's "right" to be seen as a contender for the prime minister's chair, the BJP leader had dismissed his remarks, saying Singh had an old habit of creating disputes.
