Sharma questioned who gave Kejriwal the right to call a meeting of the officials of Punjab when Bhagwnat Mann is the chief minister of the state.

Sharma said Kejriwal has proved within a month that Mann was his “puppet”. The Punjab BJP chief accused Kejriwal and Mann of going back on their pre-poll promises.
