"This is the Mahamilawat between the Congress and the BJP. Gautam Gambhir is sitting in an air conditioned car. He has problem with the heat. In his place, a duplicate wearing a cap is standing. Workers are garlanding the duplicate Gambhir. And this duplicate is a Congress leader in reality," Sisodia tweeted in Hindi.

He has also claimed that the man fielded as Gambhir's duplicate is Gaurav Arora who contested 2017 MCD election on Congress' ticket.
