Similar improvements were reported in the reading abilities of the students.‘Mission Buniyad’ was launched by the Delhi Government and municipal body schools to improve the reading capabilities of children and to ensure that they can solve basic numerical of Math. These findings were released on Saturday by the Delhi Commission for Protection of Child Rights. The study was done between April and June 2018, and it covered only 30 Government schools in Delhi out of 1030 schools. The study assessed 455 students from classes III to IV and 1,670 students from classes VI to IX and all the schools were located in the north-east district. “It is the most challenging district in the city with a high population density and large numbers of people from minority communities, Dalit communities and economically weaker sections. The schools have a high enrollment. I don’t know if the study is representative of all schools in Delhi but it is representative of schools in the district,” said the principal of DIET, Dilshad Garden, Dr. Anil Teotia, the principal author of the study.The main component of the program was the summer camp which was held in the summer holidays.
