The picture, which was uploaded on Facebook on Thursday afternoon, was deleted soon after netizens started trolling the Delhi Congress chief for the faux pas. Maken later posted a picture of another freedom fighter - Bal Gangadhar Tilak, who was born on July 23, 1856. Chandra Shekhar Azad, who was born on July 23, 1906 in Madhya Pradesh, was a revolutionary freedom fighter who died fighting for country's Independence.
