The Delhi Assembly's Leader of Opposition, Vijender Gupta, has accused the AAP government of orchestrating a significant education scam under the guise of an 'education revolution.' He demanded a thorough investigation into the matter.

In a rebuttal, AAP criticized the poor conditions of schools in BJP-ruled states like Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana, highlighting their low budgetary allocation to education compared to Delhi. AAP claims to spend 24% of its budget on education, while BJP states allocate only 14-15%.

Gupta argued that institutions like Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU) are plagued by corrupt practices and recruitment scams, accusing the government of cronyism and misuse of funds. The controversy puts a spotlight on the educational policies and governance in both Delhi and BJP-ruled states.
