NITI Aayog Report Triggers Debate Over Gujarat Education System, AAP Attacks BJP

AAP accuses the BJP government of neglecting rural education, citing teacher shortages, school closures, and lack of transparency in education spending.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has launched a sharp attack on the BJP government in Gujarat after citing findings from a recent NITI Aayog report that allegedly highlights serious shortcomings in the state’s education sector.

According to posts shared by AAP Gujarat on X, the report exposes major weaknesses in the much-publicized “Gujarat Model,” especially concerning the condition of government schools and access to quality education in rural areas.

Teacher Shortage Highlights Crisis in Gujarat Education System

AAP leaders claimed that the current state of the Gujarat education system is alarming, alleging that out of 2,936 schools in the state, only one teacher is available in each school. The party argued that such conditions directly impact the quality of education being provided to children, particularly in villages and remote regions.

The opposition party further alleged that the BJP government has shut down 5,612 government schools across Gujarat over the years. According to AAP, these closures have deprived thousands of village children of their fundamental right to education and have weakened the overall Gujarat education system.

The party also questioned the utilization of the state’s education budget. Gujarat reportedly allocates around ₹63,134 crore toward education, but AAP leaders claimed there is little transparency regarding how these funds are being spent. They argued that despite such a massive allocation, the ground reality of the Gujarat education system reflects staff shortages, inadequate infrastructure, and declining access to government schooling.

AAP Demands Urgent Reforms in Gujarat Education System After NITI Aayog Findings

AAP stated that the NITI Aayog findings should serve as a wake-up call for the state administration. The party demanded greater accountability from the government and called for immediate steps to strengthen the Gujarat education system, recruit more teachers, and reopen schools in rural areas where students are struggling to access basic education.

AAP leaders said improving the Gujarat education system should become a priority, especially at a time when educational inequality and school dropouts remain major concerns in rural communities.
