On Wednesday, Congress Chairman of Media and Publicity Department Pawan Khera addressed a press conference in Jaipur, Rajasthan and praised the CM Ashok Gehlot led Congress government of opening English medium schools. Attacking BJP on the same, Khera said: “When Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot opened English medium schools, BJP got into trouble.”
“The children of BJP leaders themselves study abroad, but they do not want the poor child to study in an English medium school. Gehlot government has invested in the next generation. Those who are against English medium schools are against the next generation of Rajasthan,” said Khera.
“I ask the BJP leaders that when are they calling their children back from abroad?,” asked Pawan Khera.
