Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday paid tributes to Mahatma Gandhi on his 146th birth anniversary at Rajghat in the national capital.
Kejriwal visited Rajghat in the morning and paid floral tributes to Mahatma Gandhi. Afterwards, he visited Vijay Ghat to pay homage to late prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. Later, he participated in a Gandhi Jayanti programme at the Delhi Vidhan Sabha here.
"Gandhi's birthday 2day (sic). Let's pledge to put an end to divisive politics. Beef ban murder outcome of divisive politics. Plzzz. Let's stop this," he later tweeted.
Kejriwal also took potshots at the Narendra Modi government over its 'Swachh Bharat' mission and asked for information on the money spent on it in the last one year.
"1 yr of Swachh Bharat. Which streets got cleaned as a result of this campaign? How much budget spent on it? Time to question symbolism?" he tweeted.
