Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has announced that Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University will be established soon in the national capital.

The first board meeting of this university was held today,” the chief minister said at an online press conference. “Students will be imparted skills and training at the university so that they can easily get a job as soon as they pass out from the institute or can pursue business by getting hands-on business training,” Kejriwal said.

Dr Neharika Vohra, the head of the Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE) at IIM-Ahmedabad, has been appointed as the vice-chancellor of the University.

‘“We have appointed the vice-chancellor of the university and its board members. I spoke to all the board members and told them that the only objective and ideology of this university will be ensuring jobs for every student passing out from this university, or they should be able to pursue business,” Kejriwal said. “The first academic session is expected to start next year, in close consultation with companies who will be treated as customers in this endeavour, so that courses are in tune with industry demand,” he added.
