"He is welcome to debate on any issue of his choice which he may feel to be national", said Capt Amarinder , adding, "for me the issues concerning the common man of Punjab are as important as those Jaitley thinks are national, even if someone like him (Jaitely) finds them less interesting".

Arun Jaitley on Wednesday stated that Amrinder Singh does not have any vision on national issues, and wants to recognize his presence by very impolite language.
