Coming down hard on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over his body language during a crucial meeting presided over by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the prevailing Covid-19 situation in the country, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has said that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader has no manners and questioned whether this is how a CM should behave at an important meeting.
The Delhi unit of the saffron party shared the video snippet on Twitter and slammed Kejriwal, calling him 'Mannerless CM of Delhi'. In the video, it appears that Kejriwal had no interest in the content of the meeting and that he was getting bored. Kejriwal could also be seen stretching his arms as the PM Modi spoke on high fuel prices in states that are ruled by non-BJP parties.
