The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader’s comments come in the backdrop of increased concerns over students’ safety in schools, following the brutal killing of a seven-year-old boy in a Gurugram school and alleged rape of a five-year-old girl by a school peon in Delhi. Sisodia, who is also the education minister of Delhi, had last week asked the school principals to send a list of liquor shops located close to their campuses. As per norms, a liquor shop cannot function within 100 metres of a school.
Have already asked all school Principals - Govt and Pvt - to let me know if any liquor shops (even beyond 100m) is causing trouble (2/n)
