hi Padmalatha!your elder one is simply imitating your lil one. that's ok . u just need to talk to her calmly and praise her when she pees in the washroom. give her a smiley or a star and on a day without a single accident , u could reward her with a privelege such as extra play time. try this for a week. she is retreating to a previous stage to grab your attention. avoid scolding her when she doesn't do it in the washroom and calmly explain by taking her in your lap. hope this helps!
