Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Parliamentary Affairs Rajiv Pratap Rudy on Saturday said Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is using the Dadri lynching case to divert public attention away from his failures.

He also said that Kejriwal was indulging in the politics of provocation by visiting Dadri.

"The biggest mistake which has ever happened in Delhi, by the people of Delhi, which everyone is realising, is Mr.Kejriwal. He should focus more on fulfilling commitments made to the people. He is unable to govern Delhi properly. He does not even have control over his MLAs," Rudy told ANI.

"Now that he has totally failed in governing Delhi, he is trying to divert the attention (by visiting Dadri). First let him become a good leader of Delhi. Kejriwal is indulging in politics of provocation to divert the attention of the people from his failures," he added.

Kejriwal earlier in the day visited Bishada village in Dadri to meet the family of Mohammad Akhlaq, who was allegedly lynched for posessing beef. The Chief Minister was initially stopped by the villagers from entering the village.
