"I was invited to speak about Delhi Education reforms at World Education Conference, Moscow. I was supposed to leave tonight but it's unfortunate that Govt of India has not given permission. It's pending 'under process' for last 10 days (sic)," The AAP leader tweeted today.

He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi does not want the Delhi government's work to reach an international platform.

"Delhi's education reforms hv been getting international press coverage in past few months. It's unfortunate that PM Modi doesn't want this to reach int. platforms. Sir! Delhi is also part of India! If our schools get international recognition, it's a matter of pride for India (sic)," he said in another tweet.
