It is a proof of anarchic nature of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's party," Bharatiya Janata Party's Delhi unit President Manoj Tiwari told IANS.Earlier on Saturday, Tiwari has shared a letter on Twitter urging the SEC to block AAP leader and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's Facebook account for breaching election code of conduct.Tiwari while speaking to CNN-News18 also rejected the Sisodia's claims that the municipality elections were a referendum on the 10 years rule of BJP in the municipal corporations of Delhi.— With agency inputs
