He further said that people of Delhi need to know the actual truth of the government schools.

"Delhi has as many as 1000 government schools, out of which only 79 schools have a principal. Around 20,000 ad-hoc teachers were to be made permanent but the Kejriwal-led government did nothing in this regard," claimed Bidhuri.
