Union Minister and Former Delhi BJP President Vijay Goel today slammed Delhi CM Kejriwal for his inaction and lack of proper planning in improving Delhi’s education system as a result of which Delhi students have performed poorly as compared to other states. According to latest data, Delhi Region is among the worst performances with only 78.6 % pass percentage.

Goel said that the performance report card for CBSE Class 10th board examinations is out and it is not too re-assuring. Goel stated, “Of the 10 regions, Delhi Region is amongst the worst performers with only about 78.60% students recording a pass grade. Other regions have also performed much better than Delhi Region. Chennai has recorded a pass percentage of 97.37% whereas Ajmer has recorded a pass percentage 91.86%. Foreign Schools have recorded a pass percentage of 98.32%.”

Goel added that this is due to Kejriwal led Delhi government’s poor planning and lack of vision which is hampering the future of students. Goel also slammed Kejriwal and his team for engaging in publicity and drum-beating rather than on-ground action. Earlier this month, Goel had exposed how one particular Delhi government school in Delhi’s Mustafabad had no space for students but 2000 students are compelled to study under the same roof with almost zero amenities.

Goel emphasized that Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia highlight one swimming pool or one so-called state of the art school building whereas the on-ground reality is quite grim as there is no proper roadmap to revamp the Capital’s education system. “They must act before it’s way too late”, Goel added.

in the world of radio where people from all parts of the country get to
know about PM's visionary ideas and also share their thoughts and ideas
with him. He stated that through the medium of Mann Ki Baat, PM
Modi has created a unique communication system that enables people to
know about the dynamic ideas and vision that is taking India forward.

various positive work, schemes, policies that the government has taken
up in the last four years which are transforming the lives of all. Goel said
that the pace of development in 48 months of Narendra Modi
government has outweighed 48 years of Congress rule. “The
government has transformed the lives of each section and has brought a
positive change with welfare schemes that has earned us global
recognition as well. We are sure that people will choose PM Modi’s
“Vikas” agenda in 2019 too,” Goel added

farmers, downtrodden and backward sections of the society to bring
them at par with others. “The nation has experienced a renewed spirit and everyone is motivated to work for a New India.

Union Minister and former Delhi BJP President Sh. Vijay
Goel today wrote a letter to North MCD Commissioner after being informed by local
residents about demolition of certain havelis in the Kucha Paati Ram area of Sitaram
Bazar in Chandni Chowk. Goel said, “I am deeply pained with the alarming situation
prevailing in the precincts of Chandni Chowk, Old Delhi. It is one of the oldest
heritage city built in the 17 th Century but is now on the verge of being destroyed by
unauthorised construction and demolition of historical structures which cannot be
rebuilt in their actual form.”
Goel stated that the MCD Commissioner must visit these spots and take immediate
corrective measures. Goel further stated that Chandni Chowk in recent times has
witnessed rapid unauthorised and illegal constructions capable of altering the basic
character of this Heritage City. “Havelis are being destroyed and converted into
commercial complexes. The traditional look and feel of Chandni Chowk is being
played with blatantly and no effort has been made for heritage protection and
conservation. The roads, by lanes and streets have been mercilessly encroached upon
and there is no plan by the Delhi Government, Shahjahanabad Development
Corporation and the local Government i.e. North Delhi Municipal Corporation to
restore the area to its glorious past.” Goel added.
Goel expressed deep concern with the prevailing scenario of Chandni Chowk and
emphasized that the current situation in which the Chandni Chowk finds itself is only
because of connivance of officials of various authorities responsible for the
governance and upkeep of this Heritage City. He said, “There is no policy for the
safeguard of the unprotected Heritage Buildings from destruction, illegal construction
or encroachment.”
Goel said that there is a need to constitute a heritage cell for Chandni Chowk for the
conservation and promotion of heritage structures. He also mentioned that Chandni
Chowk is endowed with rich Cultural Heritage and it is our duty to protect the same
and restore it to its past glory and with these efforts Chandni Chowk will surely
become a major tourist destination.

hundreds of people from all walks of life wrote good luck messages for BJP to form
government in Karnataka. Goel said that he is sure that the BJP will emerge as the

Narendra Modi.
