Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday (25 February) expressed his desire to build world-class schools in the state and alleged that Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is trying to stop his development works.
"They (BJP) tried to stop the construction of schools and hospitals in Delhi. They do not want the poor to get the same level of education as their children. Only I know, how am I running the government in Delhi, I should get a Nobel prize for this," he said.
"BJP people and LG (Lieutenant Governor) created troubles for Delhi people and I, Delhi's son, solved these problems. I should get a Nobel prize for this but my Nobel prize is you people," Kejriwal added.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
