Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday, August 16, said, "I offer Union government to use our services. Keep politics aside. Use our services-you, we and 130 crores Indians will together improve all schools. All governments (states) will do it together. And stop calling this a freebie, providing quality education isn't a freebie."
