Meghalaya's Education Minister Lahkmen Rymbui, along with Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, was a student on Wednesday in a "happiness class" at a government school here. Mr Rymbui said he has come to the national capital to learn about the Delhi's government's "Happiness Curriculum". "The happiness class is very important for the youth of today. I have come here today to see how we could replicate this in Meghalaya. I have formed a task force to revise the state curriculum framework.
"I have come to see whether this could be replicated there or if it could be modified based on our own culture and identities. I will also send my officers here to understand the curriculum," said Mr Rymbui after attending the class at Sarvodaya Bal Vidyalaya, Rouse Avenue, here.
