What the evidence says
Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP government made education a top priority, allocating the highest share of the budget to transform Delhi’s government schools into free, modern institutions with world-class infrastructure, innovative curricula, and improved learning outcomes. The reforms delivered visible results — better buildings, facilities, teacher development, and strong academic performance (pass percentages above 97-98%) — making government schools a preferred choice for many parents.
