He warned that the BJP’s manifesto reveals their intention to roll back free education, healthcare, and other essential benefits, which could disrupt the lives of millions of residents.

Speaking at a press conference, Kejriwal said, “The BJP has clearly stated That they will stop the free education being provided to 18 lakh children in Delhi. They want to limit it only to ‘needy’ students, which is a direct attack on the education revolution we have achieved in Delhi’s government schools.”

Kejriwal claimed that the BJP’s proposal to discontinue free education for all would force families to bear private school fees of up to ₹10,000 per month for two children. “Today, 1.8 million children are studying in Delhi’s government schools for free. If the BJP implements its policy, families will be burdened with enormous expenses just to educate their children,” he added.
