Nursery admissions in Delhi will begin from February 18, the Directorate of Education (DoE) announced on Wednesday. The application process will begin on February 18 and the first list is expected on March 20. The entire process will conclude on March 31, Yogesh Pal Singh, Assistant Director of Education, said.
Usually, nursery admissions in around 1,700 schools in the national capital begin in the last week of November.
