With Arvind Kejriwal blaming Prime Minister Narendra Modi for Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) raiding his office, Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Venkaiah Naidu on Tuesday said that it has become a 'fashion' for the Delhi Chief Minister to bicker with the Centre and blame them for everything.

"It has become fashion for Delhi Chief Minister to quarrel with Central Government and to take Prime Minister's name for everything. Prime Minister has nothing to do with this. There is a law, there is a Constitution and law has to take its own course," Naidu told reporters here.

Naidu added that he did not have details of the raid as they do not monitor the CBI.

Kejriwal slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the raid and accused him of resorting to 'cowardice'.

"CBI raids my office...When Modi cudn't handle me politically, he resorts to this cowardice," he tweeted.
