Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia met and interacted with 45 students from Delhi government schools who secured above 98 percentile in JEE Main exam. Lauding the students, Sisodia said, “There is no dearth of talent in Delhi government school students; if given an opportunity, they can also work hard and crack tough exams like JEE.” 

“Our schools come from varied socio-economic backgrounds and have seen the toughest times in their lives, but still they are determined to achieve their goals. Hard work of students and teachers along with facilities such as upgraded libraries, free coaching classes, and reading rooms have contributed to this success,” Sisodia said.
