He revealed that the main objective of making this agreement was to enable ‘maximum utilisation of resources’. He clarified that the teachers would teach in both the universities. However, it does not mean that they move from DU to Jamia and vice-versa. Today, technology has given scope for various innovative ideas. The details regarding this partnership will be announced soon.

Talat Ahmad, Vice-Chancellor of Jamia Millia Islamia, stated that most of the DU students stay near Jamia and similarly many students of Jamia stay near DU colleges. The agreement between the two universities will benefit the students. He assured that the library of Jamia would be made available to DU students who stay nearby.
