If your schools are not good, we can fix them together — Kejriwal to Sarma in Twitter spat

“Trust me, if BJP comes to power in Delhi, it will make it the most prosperous city in the world,” Himanta Biswa Sarma wrote in Hindi.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday took a dig at his Assam counterpart Himanta Biswa Sarma and said if schools in the northeastern state were "not good" then "we can together fix them", prolonging the Twitter spat between the two leaders.

The argument between the two leaders in the virtual space began after Mr. Kejriwal had on Wednesday tweeted that a closure of schools is not a solution and there is a need to open more schools across the country, and shared a link to a news report claiming a "closure" of some schools in Assam.

On Sunday, Mr. Sarma took to Twitter to ask Mr. Kejriwal had he not promised to make Delhi at par with London and Paris.

"When you couldn't do anything, you started comparing Delhi with small states of the Northeast. Trust me, if BJP comes to power in Delhi, it will make it the most prosperous city in the world," he wrote in Hindi.

In another tweet, Mr. Sarma said, Mr. Kejriwal was showing a desire to visit Assam, but "I feel sad and regretful that you don't feel such a desire when Assam struggles with massive calamities like flood. And, yes, your deputy chief minister @msisodia has been extended an invitation".

As the Twitter spat between the two chief ministers stretched on to Sunday, AAP chief responded to Mr. Sarma, saying "you haven't answered my question".

"When should I come to see your schools? If your schools are not good, then it is ok. We can fix them together," he wrote in Hindi.
