Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal promises free education if Aam Aadmi Party elected to power in Gujarat
The HinduIn another pre-poll guarantee for Gujarat, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on August 16 announced free and quality education to the people of the poll-bound State and auditing of private schools if the Aam Aadmi Party was elected to power in the year-end Assembly elections. The AAP convener also promised to improve infrastructure of the existing government schools and open new ones in large numbers across the State if his party comes to power in the State currently ruled by the BJP. Mr. Kejriwal said if the AAP forms the next government in Gujarat, all private schools will be audited and made to return "extra money" collected from parents like what has been done in Delhi, where his party is in power. The Delhi CM said an AAP government will ensure that the practice of private schools selling textbooks and uniforms to students is stopped forthwith.
