Telangana CM applauds Delhi education model
NEW DELHI: Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao on Saturday complimented the Delhi government’s work in the field of education and said that he will send school teachers to the Capital for training so as to replicate the education model in his state.
“The Aam Aadmi Party government’s efforts in the field of education are commendable. Instead of focusing on just marks, the government here has made efforts to make students more enterprising. Delhiites are very lucky. This should be replicated all across India. They sent their teachers to foreign countries to train them so that the quality of education provided to the students can be improved; now we will send our teachers to Delhi to get oriented,” said Rao, who was given a tour of a government school in south Delhi's Moti Bagh and two mohalla clinics by Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia and health minister Satyendar Jain.
During his visit, Rao also interacted with students from the school, and said that he was “impressed by the mindset of leadership that students have developed”. Rao is currently in Delhi for a week to attend political meetings and social programmes.
Kejriwal said that it was a matter of “great pride for the Delhi government” that the Telangana government was interested in the work being done in the field of education and health in the city.
“It is a matter of great pride and joy for us to welcome Telangana chief minister and his entire team of ministers to Delhi to see our schools and clinics. Being a CM, he showed so much interest in our system. He also asked questions and we were delighted to see his interest,” said Kejriwal.
