teaching. He emphasised the need to develop internal locus among graduates and
postgraduates and also re-orient the curriculum in a way to cultivate the
entrepreneurial skills among them. He accentuated the gravity of promoting Make in
India and by-India products so that India does not remain a nation of merely
assembly lines.
The guest of honor Prof. V.R. Sinha talked about success stories of home-
grown brands like Nirma and Redbus. Building on Prof. Sharma’s insights, Prof. Sinha
accented the substance of entrepreneurial instincts and attitude, rather than
professional degrees, to devise pioneering business ideas.
