Haryana:CIn the race to create APAAR ID, government schools beat private schools
The education department has geared up to create APAAR IDs for the students of the state. Although APAAR IDs have to be created with the consent of the parents, the department has decided to link as many students as possible to APAAR IDs.

APAAR IDs have been created for 17,56,676 students studying in 14,297 government schools across the state, while the total number of students is 21.28 lakh. That is, APAAR IDs have been created for 83 percent of the students. On the other hand, if we look at the data of private schools, 34.68 lakh students study in 9,254 schools of the state, out of which APAAR IDs have been created for more than 23 lakh, that is, 67.6 percent of the students have come under the purview of Apaar.
