Business: Malls to replace municipal schools in Delhi

To meet the educational expenses of over nine lakh children, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi has hit upon a unique plan. The civic body proposes to auction 60 school campuses for construction of malls and hotels. A proposal to auction 15 of the identified schools has been forwarded to the MCD commissioner even as the corporation faces increasing pressure to cater to more students. While the decision is in itself controversial, what might trigger suspicions of a scam is that MCD had originally planned to sell off nine schools but has now increased this number to 60.
