‘Need to create happier planet for children’: Atishi unveils fourth issue of Delhi child rights body’s journal

The latest edition expands the journal’s thematic focus to embrace a broader range of concerns related to child rights and children’s well-being. The issue presents nearly 30 writings and research papers, including six by children, and also includes paintings of children from all over the country.

Atishi said that the recent murder has left everyone questioning what society, the country, and educators can do to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Atishi also highlighted the Delhi government’s investment in school infrastructure under the leadership of CM Arvind Kejriwal. This, she said, was aimed to give students a sense of self-worth. Additionally, the government has prioritised addressing emotions such as unhappiness, anger and anxiety among students from underprivileged backgrounds in Delhi government schools through the Happiness Curriculum, Entrepreneurship Mindset Curriculum and Deshbhakti Curriculum, she added.
