BJP says Kejriwal 'schizophrenic' for speech on Centre as Punjab hikes VAT on petrol, diesel

BJP's I-T department head Amit Malviya said Delhi Chief Minister and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal "seems to be suffering from schizophrenia" over his speech slamming the central government over inflation in the country. Speaking at the AAP mega rally at Delhi's Ramlila ground against the Centre's ordinance, Kejriwal said, "They (Centre) ruined the country. Prices have risen everywhere, the price of petrol has reached Rs 100, diesel is priced at Rs 90."
Kejriwal's remark came on the same day that the Punjab government under CM Bhagwant Mann hiked the Value-Added Tax (VAT) on fuel by 10 per cent, leading to an increase in the price of petrol and diesel in the state by 92 paise per litre and 88 paise per litre, respectively.
