To develop this approach, Delhi MCD has formed a five-member expert committee. The committee will suggest ways to incorporate values such as honesty, discipline, compassion and social responsibility in the daily learning of students.
The initiative, titled "Education with Values – The Foundation of a Better Future," aims to combine classroom learning with character-building and responsible citizenship. It seeks to help students grow into well-rounded individuals who are not only academically strong but also considerate, disciplined and responsible members of society.
