"Recently, a government school was opened in Rohini and 900 students took admission in it. Of these, 750 were from private schools," he said while addressing a gathering in Rithala here.
"Earlier, the condition of schools was such that even the poor did not want to send their kids to these schools. Even if they didn't have money for food, they wanted to send their kids to private schools," he added.
Kejriwal, also the Chairman of Delhi Jal Board, was addressing the gathering after inaugurating the work of laying down a sewer line in Budh Vihar group of colonies in Rithala.
