This year, around 92,000 applications were received for admission at 37 Dr. B R Ambedkar Schools of Specialised Excellence, which have been established to enable students in grades 9th to 12th to concentrate on their preferred academic areas. This indicates that the initiative has been successful, Arvind Kejriwal, chief minister, Delhi, said.
