Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal has invited former IPS officer Kiran Bedi for a public debate, after congratulating her for being nominated as Bharatiya Janata Party's chief ministerial candidate for the upcoming Delhi Assembly polls.
"Congrats for being nominated as BJP's CM candidate. I invite you for a public debate moderated by a neutral person and telecast by all," Kejriwal tweeted.
Kejriwal further requested Bedi to unblock him from her Twitter account.
Earlier in the day, Bedi indirectly attacked the AAP saying that Delhi needed a strong and stable government and therefore cannot function under a learner's licence.
Both Kejriwal and Bedi were part of the anti-corruption movement led by activist Anna Hazare before the AAP chief decided to form his own political party.
Bedi was named as BJP's chief ministerial candidate on Monday night and will be fielded from Krishna Nagar seat in Delhi while Kejriwal will contest Delhi from the New Delhi constituency.
