Atishi, who is also the chairperson of the Delhi legislative assembly’s standing committee on education, visited KV Government Senior Secondary School, Bulbuli Khana, Chandni Chowk, SKV No-1, Government Girls Senior Secondary School, Zeenat Mahal, Kamla Market, SBV Government Boys Senior Secondary School, Zeenat Mahal, Kamla Market and Government Girls Senior Secondary School, Lambi Gali where she also inspected the quality of infrastructure.

During the visit, Atishi interacted with both students and teachers to seek feedback. “Teachers should prioritise improving the foundational skills of our students. If their foundation is strong, the quality of our education will automatically improve. This will lay down a strong foundation for their future,” Atishi said.

She advised students to not just be job seekers but also try to create new employment opportunities for others. She also encouraged students to participate in governance and play an important role in nation-building.

Atishi also appreciated teachers for their efforts toward shaping well-informed students. “It is heartening to see that instead of just finishing the syllabus the teachers are focusing on improving the foundational skills of the children,” she said, discussing the importance of co-curricular activities in a student’s overall development.
