Ms Pushkar admitted publishing the tweets, but subsequent rejected it.
She was discovered dead in a five-star inn in Delhi, according to policeman causes.
Reports said that her married man had acquainted the policeman of her death. It was unclear how she past away.
Ms Tahrar, who denied having an affair with the minister, tweeted after she heard of Ms Pushkar's death: "I'm absolutely alarmed.
"This is too awful for words. So tragic I don't know what to say. Rest in calm, Sunanda."
