New Delhi, April 15: Delhi BJP President Manoj Tiwari on Sunday accused the AAP and the Congress of trying to "defame" his party and alleged that they were disturbing the country's social fabric.
Addressing the media along with Union Minister Prakash Javadekar, Tiwari said: "The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress are trying to defame the BJP. They are trying to break the social fabric of the society."
He said that development was not an agenda for the two parties.
"They cannot compare themselves with the development work of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and they are always trying to spread riots in Delhi and in the country," he alleged.
The BJP MP alleged that in east Delhi "on the occasion of Ramnavmi, a group people, passed in front of a mosque, stopped there and raised slogans of Jai Shri Ram.
"Two people from that group have been identified as AAP leaders Nandlal Kannaujiya and Manish whose pictures are available on the social media with several senior leaders of the party," he added.
"Thanks to the people of Delhi and the residents of that colony where the incident happened, they didn't react. Otherwise something worse would have happened," he said.

Pakistan reports two more polio cases; Total tally now 52
ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.
“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.
The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.
“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.
Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.
There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
