AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal terms BJP's Lok Sabha Election manifesto "new set of jumlas"

Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal on Monday called on BJP's Lok Sabha Election manifesto "new set of jumlas". He demanded to know from the party whether it fulfilled its 2014 promises and attacked the party for demonetisation.

"BJP unveils a fresh set of jumlas without telling the country what is the fate of its 2014 jumlas. Modi-Shah don't have the courage to speak on why demonetisation was done ? What happened to two crore jobs ? Why were farmers pushed towards destruction?", he tweeted.
