Taking to Twitter, Malviya added, "In the middle of the campaign, they are forced to come out and cover their lies...But Delhi is watching AAP's fake claims crumble...#KejriwalExposed" 

Sharing a four-minute-long video on Twitter, the Amit Shah wrote, "Arvind Kejriwal Ji, you had called me to visit the schools run by the Delhi government. Yesterday, eight MPs of Delhi had toured different schools and showed the conditions. The ground situation has exposed the claims of 'revolution in education'. Now you have to give an answer to the public of Delhi."

Kejriwal challenges Amit Shah

Ahead of the Delhi polls, Kejriwal in a press conference had challenged the BJP and gave Amit Shah an invitation to visit the schools in Delhi to see the improvement in schools after the five years of AAP government. "I invite Amit Shah Ji, you (Amit Shah) tell me the time, I will cancel all my appointments and come to you. I will take you to the schools in Delhi. You tell me which school you want to visit and I will take you there", Kejriwal had said asserting confidence on the improvement of schools and education during the AAP government's regime in Delhi.
