Kejriwal picks holes in Modi’s development claim, poses questions to Gujarat CM via Twitter

Arvind Kejrwal was stopped outside Gandhinagar while he was going to meet Modi.

Arvind Kejriwal has taken on BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on his home turf. On a four-day campaign in Gujarat, Kejriwal has trashed the development model of Modi saying the Gujarat CM is propagating lies. On Friday, Kejrwal was stopped outside Gandhinagar while he was going to meet Modi.

Failing to question him directly, the former Delhi chief minister posed few questions on micro-blogging site Twitter for Modi to answer.

Here are the questions.

Today #AKasksModi some questions? What was the Congress doing for the last decade?
