Ravi Shankar Prasad slams Arvind Kejriwal for calling PM 'coward'

New Delhi, Dec 15 (IBNS): Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Tuesday Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal should apologise for calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi 'coward'.

"The use of the expression coward for our popular PM is totally uncalled for unwarranted ," Prasad said while addressing a press conference here, hours after Kejriwal alleged that his  office was raided by the CBI.

"He should apologize to the PM for using such words," Prasad said.

Prasad said the CBI conducted raid after proper 'search warrant by a competent court'.

He said the CBI should  be allowed to do its work in a free and fair manner.

Prasad said the CBI does not need to take permission before carrying out its raids.

Kejriwal earlier in the day tweeted that  his office was raided by the CBI and launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling him a "coward and psychopath".

"When Modi cudn't handle me politically, he resorts to this cowardice," Kejriwal tweeted.

"Modi is a coward and a psycopath," he said.

The AAP claimed that officials have been stopped from entering the Chief Minister's office on the third floor of the Delhi Secretariat and the CBI has not given any reason for its move.

The CBI denied reports of conducting raids at Delhi CM's office and called the allegation as 'completely baseless'.
