A day after Congress fielded Kanhaiya Kumar from the North East Delhi Lok Sabha seat, BJP nominee Manoj Tiwari took a dig at him, saying he was on a "40-day tour" of the constituency and could see how an MP works in his area.
The Congress is contesting three of the total seven seats in the national capital under a seat-sharing agreement with its Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) partner AAP, and announced its candidates on Monday.
Mr. Tiwari, who is representing the North East Delhi seat for a second consecutive term, questioned, without naming Mr. Kumar, "how responsible could be those who led a tukde-tukde gang and who cannot respect the country and its army".
