Delhi Education Minister Manish Sisodia on Thursday attacked Union Home Minister Amit Shah for transferring a bureaucrat “without consulting” the State government.

“Within a week of government schools getting a pass percentage of 98%, central government has transferred Delhi education director to Andaman. The Home Ministry did not even consult with the state government. @AmitShah ji! Is this a punishment for giving good education to the poor children of Delhi? [sic],” Mr. Sisodia tweeted.

An official statement on Thursday, meanwhile, said: “Today Deputy Chief Minister interacted with some Class XII students placed in ‘Essential Repeat’ category to assist them to prepare better and implement it for better results next year.”
