Senior AAP leader Sanjay Singh on Friday alleged that the BJP is going to demolish a government school adjacent to its new central office on Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg and take its possession.
Speaking at a press conference here, Singh claimed that the BJP is now “planning to run bulldozers on it” since its new headquarters encroach on a nearby government school. “A government school that is right next to the BJP’s new office will be destroyed since the party wants to occupy the property. By taking the school, they first constructed a party office, and now they intend to demolish it with bulldozers. AAP won’t permit that, asserted Rajya Sabha member Singh.
The future of over 350 children will be at stake if the school is demolished, he said. “As long as the AAP government is in Delhi, no school will be allowed to be demolished. The BJP is planning to get that school demolished in the name of redevelopment. The party has its own private schools, and in order to do their business, they are closing down government schools,” he alleged.
Referring to Manish Sisodia’s letter from prison, Singh said that the former Deputy Chief Minister has expressed his concerns over the Prime Minister’s lack of education and said the country cannot be run by someone who “does not understand the importance of education.” Earlier in the day, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal posted a letter on Twitter in which his former deputy said, “It is very dangerous for the country if the prime minister is less educated.”
