He also said in series of two tweets in Tamil “When I visited the school in Delhi today, I was amazed to see the initiative #BusinessBlasters to promote the skills of the students there. Students and teachers have soaked me with their love. When someone presented the teacher with a sketch of the lead artist, I was moved.” He also stated “Tamil Nadu students and teachers need to go beyond textbooks and further develop their knowledge and skills. The world is just outside the window! Innovate it with your skills! Enrich!”
Kejriwal tweeted “I am very delighted that Thiru MK Stalin visited Delhi Government’s schools and Mohalla Clinics today. This country can only progress if we all learn from each other’s good ideas.”
