New Delhi: Borrowing a line from the Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Jawan’, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Wednesday took a dig at the Centre claiming that there’s was the only party, which has the moral courage to ask for votes on the promise of better education and healthcare. The Atlee directorial, which has been on phenomenal run at the box office in the country and overseas, has a monologue from the protagonist, Shah Rukh, exhorting people to ask leaders, who come asking for votes, as to what they plan to do for them and their children if elected for the next five years.

Talking to the media, the Delhi Chief Minister said, “In the movie 'Jawan', Shah Rukh Khan said not to give votes on the basis of religion and caste and instead ask the candidates if they can provide good education and medical treatment. Today, there is only one party - AAP - that asks for votes on the promise of providing education to their children.”

Jawan Movie में Shah Rukh Khan ने कहा कि अगली बार जब कोई जाति धर्म के नाम पर Vote मांगने आए तो उससे पूछना कि- मेरे बच्चों को अच्छी शिक्षा दोगे, हमें अच्छा इलाज दोगे?

आज 75 साल के बाद भी AAP इकलौती पार्टी है जो ठोक बजाकर कहती है कि हमें VOTE दो क्योंकि हम आपके बच्चों को अच्छी… pic.twitter.com/X3ZYYIxMyM

Kejriwal, accompanied by his Punjab counterpart Bhagwant Mann, were in Amritsar to inaugurate a ‘School of Eminence’.

“We had promised before the elections that it is my responsibility to educate your children. Construction of 117 schools has already been started, admission process is complete. There are 4200 seats in these schools and one lakh children have filled the applications for admission. Earlier, there were recommendation for private schools but under the AAP government, there are recommendations for admission in government schools,” Kejriwal said.

हमने चुनाव से पहले वादा किया था, आपके बच्चों की पढ़ाई की जिम्मेदारी मेरी है। आपके बच्चों को, अपने बच्चों को अलग नहीं मानता।

Speaking to the media, Punjab CM Mann said, “Our dream of providing education is for the whole country. We are already delivering on this goal in Delhi and Punjab. Arvind Kejriwal recently coined ‘One Nation, One Education’, in which children of the rich and the poor will study in the same school and receive the same education.”

हमारा नारा है
"One Nation One Education"

चुनाव के समय हमने Guarantee दी थी कि सरकारी स्कूलों को शानदार बना देंगे।
