Election is like a 'dharma yudh' for us: Kejriwal on Delhi polls
"This election is like a 'dharma yudh' (battle for truth) for us," Kejriwal told reporters here.
He again asked Bedi for a public debate before the Assembly polls even as the former top cop said that she will do the same on the floor of the Assembly.
"Before the debate, we want a debate on all key issues with Kiran Bedi," Kejriwal said.
He said the debate will be a good move for a democracy as people will be able to choose the right candidate to vote in the upcoming polls.
Inviting Bedi for a public debate, Kejriwal had earlier tweeted: ""@thekiranbedi congrats 4 being nominated as BJP's CM candidate. I invite u 4 a public debate moderated by neutral person n telecast by all."
He also asked Bedi to 'unblock' him on micro-blogging site Twitter.
"@thekiranbedi Kiranji, i used to follow u on twitter. Now, u have blocked me on twitter. Kindly unblock me," the former Delhi CM tweeted.
Bedi accepted the challenge but said she will do it on the floor of the Assembly.
"I am accepting the challenge. I will debate in the assembly," Bedi told reporters.
She said she believes in 'delivering' and not only on 'debating'.
"Arvind Kejriwal has only been debating, I believe in delivering," she said.
Bedi said she had blocked Arvind Kejriwal's Twitter account last year when he called himself an 'anarchist'.
Delhi Assembly elections will be held on Feb. 7.
