NEW DELHI: Delhi government's Specialised School of Excellence will now be known as BR Ambedkar School of Specialised Excellence, chief minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Thursday. Kejriwal said this at an event to launch one such school on the occasion of Ambedkar's birth anniversary.

दिल्ली के सभी स्कूल ऑफ स्पेशलाइज्ड एक्सीलेंस आज से बाबा साहब अम्बेडकर जी के नाम से जाने जाएंगे। भविष्य में इन्हीं स्कूलों से पढ़कर बच्चे डॉक्टर, इंजीनियर, वैज्ञानिक बनेंगे। यही तो बाबा साहब का सपना था। मुझे खुशी है कि हम उनके सपनों को उनकी मंज़िल की तरफ़ लेकर जा रहे हैं। pic.twitter.com/gqRtL2sIQv
