Jhanvi Behal, the 15-year-old girl who was honoured during Republic Day for her contribution to the ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan’, on Sunday, challenged Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union president Kanhaiya Kumar for an open debate over his allegations on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
In an open challenge, the 15-year-old challenged Kanhaiya Kumar to meet her ‘wherever and whenever’ for the debate. “It is very easy to criticise someone while sitting at home. Kanhaiya should concentrate on working like PM Modi,” said Jhanvi.

“Whatever Kanhaiya ji said against PM Modi is completely wrong and unacceptable. It would have been better if he had spoken against those ‘Deshdrohis’ who raised anti-national slogans rather than PM Modi,” Behal was quoted as saying.
