BJP on Wednesday called out Arvind Kejriwal for trying to "draw media attention" after the AAP chief wrote an open letter to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat to target the saffron party.

BJP national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi advised Kejriwal to "learn from RSS" instead of writing letters to its chief to grab media attention.

"Don't write to the Sangh (RSS), learn from it," he told Kejriwal.

He said the Seva Bharati, which is affiliated to the RSS, is the "biggest organisation" in India which works for the welfare of people, including the Dalits living in slums.

"Learn the spirit of service (from the RSS and its affiliates). Leave behind your political moves," Trivedi told the AAP chief.

Earlier today, Kejriwal wrote a letter to Bhagwat asking whether he supports the wrongdoings committed by BJP.

He accused the BJP leaders of openly buying votes in Delhi and alleged that the saffron party is also engaged in a "large-scale" attempt to cut the votes of poor, Purvanchali and Dalit groups in the coming assembly polls.

He asked the RSS chief whether he supports such actions or believes that BJP is undermining democracy by engaging in such activities.

Kejriwal's letter comes at a time when both AAP and BJP are embroiled in a bitter war of words over the issue of Rohingyas.

BJP has accused AAP and Kejriwal of helping illegal Rohingya and Bangladeshis staying in Delhi with documents and money to use them as vote bank in the elections.

AAP has alleged that Union minister Hardeep Singh Puri, who was the housing minister during the second term of Modi government, made public information on where Rohingyas were settled in the national capital.

The elections to the 70-member Delhi Assembly are due to be held in February.
