New Delhi: Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal participated in the Republic Day celebrations at Chhatrasal Stadium here. Addressing the public here, he said that today when we are celebrating the 74th Republic Day. 

CM further said- In the last 1 year, GST was imposed on many food items and all these things have become expensive. I hope that the central government will remove GST on these and give relief to the people of the country. GST has been made so difficult that many businessmen are worried. People don't understand. He said- I had just gone to Telangana, Their CM called me. I saw that the government there is getting four crore people tested for their eyes. The government will give glasses to those who need glasses, and those who need an operation will get their operation done free of cost. I will get it done in Delhi also. Eye checkups, operations, and other facilities will be provided free of cost to the people of Delhi. The CM of Punjab is also going to do this.

The Chief Minister said- We need to learn from each other like this. If we learn, then all the problems of the country will be solved. Instead of learning, we are working to fight. He is fighting with governments, judiciary, businessmen, and other people. What is the need to fight? Everyone together can make the country number one. He said- Delhi has become the start-up capital of the country. Last year 5000 start-ups started in Delhi. Delhi has become the city with the highest number of e-vehicles in the country, more than Karnataka. Delhi has the largest number of trees in the country. Delhi has become the education capital of the country, and 5 of the top 10 schools in the country are from Delhi. Delhi government spends 25 percent of the budget on education, which no state does. There has been an increase of 25 percent in the number of students in schools in Delhi. When our government was formed, there were 14 lakh children, now there are more than 18 lakh students. Kejriwal said that Delhi has become the health capital, There are 3 doctors per 1000 people in Delhi, which is more than in America. 2.5 lakh CCTVs were installed in Delhi, which is more than in England.
