NEW DELHI: Indian Overseas Congress chief Sam Pitroda is of the opinion that a party needs "political will at a national level" to work towards education and healthcare for citizens in the country.

Speaking to IANS on Thursday, Pitroda called AAP national Convenor Arvind Kejriwal's free education model "bogus".

"It is all bogus. They have no idea. No, what I'm saying is you need the political will at a national level. You can't do these things in isolation in one college here or two colleges there or in one state. Not possible, " he said.

"You need a vision of a nation saying, I am going to take responsibility for education and health. As a nation, I will make sure that every kid gets almost free education."
