Taking a jibe at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over the Aam Aadmi Party's proposed march against the Land Acquisition Bill, Delhi BJP chief Satish Upadhyay on Friday said the former should stop misleading the people of the national capital and do something tangible.

Upadhyay said that Kejriwal should first understand the Land Acquisition Bill as to what has happened after the amendments.

"He [Kejriwal] does not do what he needs to and does what he should avoid. It has been two months that he has been stranded in the AAP rift. Does he want to mislead the people of Delhi? Or he wants to do something tangible for the people," he added.

The AAP, which will hold a protest march against the Land Acquisition Bill on April 22, has also formed a committee in this regard.

The committee comprises senior party leaders Ilyas Azmi, Prem Singh Pahadi, Yogesh Dahiya, Somendra Dhaka, Gurnam Singh and Kiran Vissa.

The committee members have been assigned the task of working out the details of the agitation programme.
