NEW DELHI: Senior Vice Minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia criticized Uttar Pradesh Prime Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday, saying that if he could not provide a good education to the children of Uttar Pradesh, which has a large population, then you should go.
“Now this excuse will not work, Yogi Adityanathji. If you cannot provide a good education to the children of Uttar Pradesh, which has a large population, then it is your disability. What is the fault of the people of the state? If not you can get by, then let it go. People will choose the person who has the ability to give a good education to the children of the great state, “Sisodia tweeted.
Backing Sisodia, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said: “It is the responsibility of our governments to provide a good education and a bright future for children, whether the number is 5 lakh or 5 million rupees. good governments make no excuses. ”
Sisodia’s comment comes after Uttar Pradesh’s chief minister said on Friday that the number of students studying in the state’s basic schools is as much as the total population of Delhi.
The war of words between the political leaders of the two states began when Kejriwal announced on Tuesday that the AAP would contest the next Uttar Pradesh assembly elections in 2022. He also compared the work done in the field of school education in Delhi with the of Uttar. Pradesh.
Following this, Uttar Pradesh Primary Education Minister Satish Chandra Dwivedi invited Kejriwal and Sisodia to visit schools in Uttar Pradesh saying it would “open their eyes”.
Going further, Sisodia said on Wednesday that it had accepted the challenge launched by several ministers in the Uttar Pradesh cabinet, including Satish dwivedi, who challenged the Delhi minister to visit Uttar Pradesh and discuss education and school facilities in the two states.
“I will arrive in Lucknow on December 22. We are going to discuss the Delhi government’s school education system versus that of Uttar Pradesh. You challenged us yesterday so I’m ready. Tell me who will be there in the debate. I ask you not to give a step back, “Sisodia, who is also Delhi’s education minister, said on Wednesday.
