Arvind Kejriwal said states should learn from each other on good practices transcending party politics.
The Tamil Nadu government on Monday launched the Schools of Excellence and Model Schools Scheme, which is broadly based on schools in Delhi with upgraded infrastructure and improved learning opportunities.
Launching the scheme in Chennai in the presence of his Tamil Nadu counterpart M K Stalin, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said states should learn from each other on good practices transcending party politics and called for Centre-states cooperation to give fillip to the school education sector.
If state and central governments came together, Mr Kejriwal said that within five years, all government schools in the country could provide best education to students. The Delhi Chief Minister inaugurated the scheme in an event held at the state-run Bharathi Women's College in Chennai.
Though everyone wanted the country to become developed, he wondered if it was possible if 66 per cent children get "rotten education" in state-run schools.
