Tour with Kejriwal

Delhi CM Kejriwal and KCR visited a government school in the national capital's Moti Bagh area on Saturday to take stock of improvements made in the public education system by the AAP dispensation.

The delegation visited classrooms, labs and the students' playing area among other facilities. Briefing Rao about the Delhi government's "remarkable improvements" in education, Kejriwal said many private school students were taking admission in government schools because of the quality of education being imparted.

"We have around 1,100 schools and nearly 18 lakh students studying in them. Earlier, this number was 16 lakh, but now, due to remarkable improvements in the education sector, many students of private schools are joining our government schools," Kejriwal told Rao.

Officials of the Delhi education department also gave a presentation regarding improvements being done in the sector by the AAP government.

Why the tour

The TRS leader has been at loggerheads with the saffron party on issues of paddy recruitment, and on several occasions, claimed that the BJP is adopting divisive politics to cover up its failures.

The assistance will be given to the farmers' families belonging to Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi.

On May 26, KCR will reach Bengaluru to meet former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda. He will go to Ralegan Siddi from Bengaluru the next day to meet noted social activist Anna Hazare. From there, he will travel to Shirdi and offer prayers to Saibaba.
