Search every verified Yogesh Singh interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. In mid-July 2026, University of Delhi Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Singh spoke at multiple events, including the Diamond Jubilee celebrations of Shaheed Bhagat Singh College and a ceremony organized by the University of Delhi Foundation. At the college event, Singh reflected on the institution's 60-year legacy, paid tribute to Shaheed Bhagat Singh, and encouraged students to read Bhagat Singh's Jail Diary. He urged students to become "givers" rather than "takers," to be "players" rather than "spectators," and to focus on becoming job creators. He also quoted poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar, asking students to decide whether they would be a "flower" or a "stone." At the University of Delhi Foundation event, Singh spoke about the importance of philanthropy, stating that "giving is perhaps the most difficult things in life" and that Indians are "not trained tuned for giving" to universities. He said that "the greatest joy comes from what we contribute" and praised a donation from the family of alumna Rita Bhargava Mukerje, noting that such contributions "will not only construct infrastructure, but also build aspirations." Singh also referenced a story about a Stanford University student organizing a concert to pay fees, and called on alumni to remember the classrooms "where dreams were born."
