In his keynote address at the 10th anniversary of the OP Jindal Global University at Sonipat, Haryana, he said one must not see whether an institute is public or private, but whether it is being run on not-for-profit basis. He also called for one community field work semester for students, creation of a national academic credit bank and monitoring of research to maintain quality.
