Delhi to have 94 more government schools

New Delhi: The Delhi government will open 94 new schools in the national capital in the current academic session, a Delhi minister said on Friday.

The capital currently has over 900 government schools.

"Ninety-four new government schools will be opened in different parts of the city in the current academic session," Delhi's Education Minister Arvinder Singh Lovely said here.

"This major step has been taken in view of the growing demand for admission to government schools," said a government official.

The government would also set up modern playgrounds in all the nine districts of Delhi, said Mr Lovely.

The minister made the announcements while inaugurating a new school in Gandhi Nagar in east Delhi. 

Built at a cost of Rs. 2 crore, the school has 27 classrooms and five labs.
