"Who says this? You are taking Sukhbir Badal seriously, he is a retarded child," Mann said in his reply. When the journalist tried to ask another question, the AAP leader said: "Have you taken a contract to ask all the questions?"
Later, Mann stood up and charged towards the journalist. However, he was stopped by his party leaders.
