The AAP government has bridged the gap between the rich and the poor in Delhi’s education system by improving government schools, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Monday, promising to redevelop all MCD schools in the next five to seven years. He was speaking after inaugurating Sarvodaya Co-ed school in Libaspur village. Its classrooms, labs, library and halls are far better than those in private schools of Delhi, he said. “Earlier, the condition of government schools in Delhi used to be terrible. Classes were held inside tents, ceilings of schools were broken. There were no toilets or facility even drinking water. Poor families were compelled to send their children to such schools but the AAP government bridged the gap between the rich and the poor in education in Delhi,” Kejriwal said. He further said the AAP government has been focusing on improving schools run by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. “We have started focusing on redeveloping MCD schools and it will take at least five to seven years. There are people who received good education but haven’t got a job, we are focusing on that issue as well. We will prioritise creating job opportunities for the youth,” he said.

In a recent statement, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal emphasized the remarkable progress made by the AAP government in narrowing the socio-economic disparity within Delhi's education system. Kejriwal announced the ambitious plan to revamp all MCD schools within the next five to seven years, highlighting the administration's commitment to providing quality education to all. These remarks were made during the inauguration of the Sarvodaya Co-ed school in Libaspur village, where Kejriwal praised the superior infrastructure of the classrooms, laboratories, library, and halls, surpassing even those of private schools in Delhi.

Kejriwal acknowledged the dire state of government schools in the past, lamenting the inadequate conditions such as classes being held in tents, dilapidated ceilings, and the absence of basic amenities like toilets and drinking water. Consequently, families from underprivileged backgrounds were left with no choice but to enroll their children in such substandard institutions. However, the AAP government successfully bridged the gap between the rich and the poor in Delhi's education sector, Kejriwal asserted.

Furthermore, Kejriwal outlined the AAP government's dedicated efforts to enhance the quality of education in schools managed by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. The redevelopment of these schools has become a primary focus, with a projected timeline of five to seven years for completion. Kejriwal also expressed his concern for individuals who have received a good education but struggle to find employment, assuring that the government will prioritize creating job opportunities for the youth.

Through these initiatives, the AAP government aims to create an inclusive and equitable education system in Delhi, enabling all students, regardless of their socio-economic background, to access quality education and future prospects.
