Punjab Congress Chief Amarinder Singh on Friday rubbished Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's charges against him over the circulation of AAP leaders' posters along with Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale, accusing the latter of being a "congenital and compulsive liar".

"Given the fact that he (Kejriwal) is a congenital and compulsive liar, I am not surprised over his backing out himself and blaming me for what his party has done," Amarinder said in a statement issued.

"It is a classic case of running with the hare and hunting with the hounds," the former Chief Minister said, adding, "first they (AAP) circulated posters asking people to celebrate Bhindrawale's birthday and when it boomeranged on them, Kejriwal tried to back out in his characteristic fugitive manner he is well known about".

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind on Thursday had rejected Amarinder's allegation that his party AAP had nexus with Khalistanis.

"It is Amarinder who is doing this. He is doing photo shopping--of juxtaposing our photos with Bindrawale-and putting them on posters," Kejriwal had said on Thursday in the national capital.

Amarinder dared the Aam Aadmi Party to lodge an FIR and get the matter investigated and if it (AAP) does not do so, he will get it done after the Congress forms the government in Punjab.

"We will not allow them to play the double game of stealthily playing the extremist agenda and publicly denying it later," he warned.

The PCC president said if the AAP was really not behind the posters issue then why did the party convener in Punjab, Sucha Singh Chhotepur backed out from filing a complaint.

"You have always tried to survive on rumours by first flashing a rumour and then backing out", he said while adding, "we are yet to hear any truth from you since you came into the public life".

The former Chief Minister said instead of "crying and cribbing", the AAP should have lodged an FIR under various sections of the cyber law.
