Days after the BJP alleged a scam in Government schools being run by the Delhi Government, things took an ugly turn on Wednesday after leaders of AAP and BJP argued on camera in the streets of the city, outside Kautilya Government Sarvodaya Bal Vidyalaya in South Delhi’s Greater Kailash area.
On Wednesday, AAP’s Saurabh Bharadwaj and the BJP’s Gaurav Bhatia tweeted videos of their versions of the brawl. The spat started when Gaurav Bhatia visited a school on the invitation of Saurabh Bharadwaj, because he had challenged the AAP Government to take him to a 'single school' out of the 500 new ones built by the Arvind Kejriwal Government as promised in the AAP’s manifesto.
The dare was accepted by Bharadwaj during the TV show, where it all began on Tuesday. Bhatia claimed that the AAP spokesperson could not bring the list of 500 schools while Bharadwaj said that Bhatia had run away in the middle.
“He (Bharadwaj) took us to a school which was built in 1966. We have come to a second school that is still not constructed. This is the reality after eight-and-a-half years. Thanks, the truth has come out,” said Bhatia in a video.
Taking to Twitter, Bhatia shared two videos. “As promised reached the Kautilya school at 11 o'clock to get a list of 500 new schools from your spokesperson.”
“The spokesperson did not give the list even after asking for it. Called the old school as his own then was caught lying.” Education model of fanatical beacon Arvind Kejriwal see for yourself,” Bhatia tweeted, while sharing video of the school.
Meanwhile Bharadwaj also took to Twitter and said that the BJP spokesperson did not enter the school but ran away.
“Despite repeated requests, Gaurav Bhatia did not enter the second school and ran away. We told that we have to see 498 more schools now, but he refused and ran away,” Bharadwaj tweeted.
