Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) leaders in Gujarat engaged in a heated political slugfest on social media platforms on Sunday.
In Bharuch to address a rally of tribal communities and seal an alliance with Chhotubhai Vasava’s Bharatiya Tribal Party (BTP), Mr. Kejriwal called the State BJP president C.R. Paatil a “non-Gujarati” and “super CM of Gujarat”.
“@CRPaatil of Maharashtra is the president of Gujarat BJP. Didn’t the BJP get a single Gujarati for its president? People say he is not only the president, he runs the Gujarat government. He is the real Chief Minister. This is a gross insult to the people of Gujarat. BJP people, give Gujarat a Gujarati president,” Mr. Kejriwal tweeted and said in his address, taking on the powerful State president of the ruling party.
