Delhi BJP president Satish Upadhyay told Mail Today that he would seek a clarification from the parliamentarian.

The bonhomie between BJP MP and AAP minister Kapil Mishra at a joint fumigation drive in the Capital on Tuesday has not gone down well in to the BJP camp. Sources said the Delhi unit of the party is not happy that Tiwari shared stage with the 'PM basher'.
According to sources, some party leaders have reported the matter to BJP's central leadership. The sources said following the complaing, a top BJP functionary called up the Lok Sabha MP and pulled up Tiwari for his photo-op with Mishra at a time when BJP-led MCDs and the AAP government are locked in a bitter battle over dengue and chikungunya.
Delhi BJP president Satish Upadhyay told Mail Today that he would seek a clarification from the parliamentarian.
"This does not send across a right message within the cadre and the party. I will speak to him (Tiwari) and seek clarification. Party leaders in general must be sensitive to the political position of the BJP," Upadhyay said.
Another office bearer pointed out that the BJP MP had the entire MCD machinery at his disposal to promote sanitation and fumigation, and but it was surprising that he chose to share the opportunity with the AAP minister.
Tiwari could not be reached despite repeated attempts. Sources close to him said the MP had left for Singapore two days after his public appearance.
FUMIGATION DRIVE
On Tuesday, Tiwari had gone for a fumigation drive with Kapil Mishra, who has viciously attacked Prime Minister on several occasions in recent times. In one of his tweets, Mishra had even termed Modi an 'ISI agent'.
Delhi BJP leaders said this act of Tiwari has not only embarrassed the party but also left its leaders in MCD demoralized. The BJP, which controls all three MCD zones in Delhi, has been facing severe criticism for the spread of dengue and chikungunya, which have so far claimed 20 lives in the city.
Sources said that plan for the joint fumigation drive was finalized by the two leaders at Tiwari's official residence in North Avenue. According to a BJP insider, the two had met over lunch on Tuesday, where Mishra is said to have convinced Tiwari to show a united front in the fight against dengue.
A senior leader also questioned the timing of the photo-op. "The AAP ministers are globe-trotting when Delhi is reeling under the mortal threat of Chikungunya and dengue. Such an act unjustly provided a positive advertisement to the AAP government," he said.
This is not the first time when Tiwari has landed himself in trouble with the top brass. Earlier, he faced flak for his unsavoury comments against Kiran Bedi, who was BJP's chief ministerial face against in the 2015 assembly polls. "We don't need someone like a thanedar (policeman). We need a leader who can take everyone along," he had said.
