Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has said that Aam Aadmi Party convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's tongue should have had his tongue trimmed earlier, while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said this could have stopped his frequent bouts of verbal diarrhea.

"Some people have verbal diarrhea and Arvind Kejriwal classifies under that category. So, I don't think Parrikar has said anything wrong," BJP leader Shaina NC told ANI.

Shaina said that Parrikar has only commented on trimming of Kejriwal's tongue, which should have been done long ago.

Yesterday, Parrikar said that Kejriwal's tongue had to be trimmed as it had grown long due to speaking too much against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and him (Parrikar).

Kejriwal recently underwent tongue surgery at a Bengaluru clinic as the position of his tongue was held responsible for his consistent bouts of coughing.
