New Delhi

: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal hit out at Rahul for questioning the Aam Aadmi Party's protest against the demolition, saying that he was still a 'child' in politics.

-"Rahul Gandhi is still a child. I don't think his party has told him that that Indian Railways comes the Centre and not the Delhi Government,-" Kejriwal tweeted.

Rahul had demanded to know the reason behind AAP's 'dharna' since they were the ruling power in Delhi.

Earlier today, AAP and Trinamool Congress MPs protested at the Mahatma Gandhi statue outside the Parliament.

Terming the incident as inhuman, Delhi Minister Satyendra Jain alleged the demolition was carried out -"to teach a lesson-" to these people who had voted for Arvind Kejriwal.

-"Without making any alternative arrangements for them, their houses were demolished. The demolition was carried out to teach a lesson to these people who had voted for Arvind Kejriwal. In the process an infant girl has died and the post-mortem has revealed that she had received severe head injury and that her ribs had broken,-" said Jain.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Government has ordered magisterial enquiries into the demolition and also the death of a six month-old child.

Separate probe will be conducted into demolition drive and the child's death.
