The Delhi government's new promotion policy mandates that students of classes 5 and 8 will not be promoted if they fail to clear the annual examinations, doing away with its earlier 'no detention' rule. Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said the 'no detention policy' was very progressive but the education system could not take its full advantage due to lack of preparation.
