We Want Teaching To Be The Most Sought-After Profession, Says CM
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his Deputy Manish Sisodia felicitated and awarded 87 teachers in various categories for their “selfless service and rigorous efforts in making qualitative changes in the education system in Delhi and shaping the future”, on the occasion of Teachers’ Day.

Addressing a gathering of principals and teachers at Thyagaraj Stadium, Mr. Kejriwal said, “Till 1830, before the introduction of British Education System, teaching was the most sought-after profession in India. The Delhi government plans to revive that unique system in the Capital to ensure that the creamy layer of the society will take up the profession.”
