Remarking that ''Indians are very poor team players'', he urged teachers to create an environment of collaboration.

Delhi University Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh on Thursday said students should be taught the ”art of collaboration” to help them find good job opportunities.

Remarking that ”Indians are very poor team players”, he urged teachers to create an environment of collaboration.

At the inauguration of a three-day job fair organised by the Central Placement Cell of the university, the vice-chancellor urged the students to be ”loyal, committed and honest to the company”.

”I would request the dean of students’ welfare to strengthen this platform. It should be a perennial activity. Whenever a company wants to come to Delhi University at any time of the year, they should be allowed. We should work very hard towards this,” Singh said.
