AAP raises concern

On December 13, Kejriwal called the situation 'extremely serious and worrying'. Taking to X, he wrote,“If this continues, how badly will it affect the children? What will happen to their studies?”

On the other hand, Delhi CM Atishi attacked the Central government and said that the BJP-ruled central government has failed in its only task of providing security.“After the daily incidents of ransom, murders, firing in Delhi, now threats of bombing of schools are being received. The law and order situation in Delhi has never been so bad before. The BJP-ruled central government has failed in its only task of providing security to the people of Delhi,” she wrote on X.
