'Politics of abuses and hooliganism': Arvind Kejriwal's response to Yogi Adityanath 'namoona' comment

New Delhi/ IBNS: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal has shared a video of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s star campaigner Yogi Adityanath calling him "a sympathiser of terrorism" during a rally in poll-bound Gujarat.

Kejriwal said he stands for "development" as against the BJP's "politics of abuses and hooliganism".

"If you want dirty abuses, hooliganism, corruption, or dirty politics, then vote for them. If you want schools, hospitals, electricity, water, roads, then vote for me," the Delhi Chief Minister tweeted in Hindi.

He retweeted a video that his UP counterpart had captioned: "This namoona (specimen) from the Aam Aadmi Party who has come from Delhi is actually a sympathiser of terrorism."

In the video that Kejriwal shared, Yogi Adityanath said that the AAP leader had "opposed the construction of Ram Temple, and even sought proof for the Indian Army's surgical strike in Pakistan".

He said corruption and terrorism are "the same thing"

Gujarat, which is also Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state, will go to polling in two phases on Dec 1 and Dec 5.

The results will be declared on Dec 8.
