During his meeting with the PM Modi, Mr Mann said the previous governments have left a whopping burden of Rs 3 lakh crore.
BJP leader Manjinder Sirsa on Thursday targeted AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal after Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann sought Rs 1 lakh crore financial package from the Centre, saying the party was seeking money for the freebies it announced at the time of state polls.
Mann has sought the special package for the revival of the state's economy and ensuring its holistic development during his first meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi after assuming charge.
"Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party's convener Arvind Kejriwal's lies have been exposed by the demand of Rs 1 lakh crore by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann from Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his meeting today," Mr Sirsa said in a statement.
Mr Sirsa alleged that Kejriwal always resorts to lies for seeking votes from people and he did same in Punjab during last month's elections.
