Sushma Swaraj will be forever remembered as a people's minister, who made an indelible mark not only with her oratory prowess, but also fiery tweets and personal engagement with masses on Social Media. Her final tweet was her congratulating Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his Kashmir triumph. She will be forever remembered as a formidable leader of action and efficiency, a towering personality who is going be a hard act to follow; perhaps forever.
