Arvind Kejriwal takes a jibe at Shah, says 'I have taken care of Delhi like an elder son'

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday took a jibe at Home Minister Amit Shah over his tweet after visiting Delhi BJP worker's residence. Amit Shah in his tweet had thanked the worker's family and spoke about "BJP's power" in Delhi. In reply to this, Kejriwal slammed the Home Minister stating all the things that his government has done for the people in the national capital.

His tweet in Hindi roughly translates to: "You must ask the BJP supporters, who took care of their children's education for 5 years, who provided electricity to them for 24 hours? When you have increased all the prices, who provided them with free electricity, water, bus rides? These are all the people of my Delhi family, Sir, I have taken care of them as their elder son."

In another tweet, he said, "Sir, you remembered them before elections for your use. We are all like a family of 2 crore people in Delhi. In the last five years, together, we have changed Delhi."
