i really "want" delhi model to succeed everywhere else. i have been to delhi, i regularly do. the number of random kids on the streets during the day in many places has gone down, as per my anecdata so there is that....

in my community at least,the government run schools are essentially zero. they do have an enrollment but students dont go there, teachers dont care, parents who send their children do so when they dont have the funds to pay for private schools and it is very difficult for these children to get a good future because their education has been very poor from the get go.

in my area, the government schools pass percentage is like in 50-70% at best while private schools regularly have 90-100% in government board exams in 10th and 12th class.
