Dear Sir, See this is how Indian research students are suffering from the delayed scholarships. Since from one year, I am waiting for my scholarship. If we call to UGC they are saying no funds are available. Here is one article appeared in Nature.Kindly go through it and resolve the problem. It will help research people.

The common man is often the best innovator gone unnoticed. The Govt. should ensure that enough awareness is spread for common people with bright ideas to report the same to a forum, which would help them with academic and technical assistance as deemed necessary, and finally, if feasible, integrate his innovative ideas or models into the institutionalized system of the country. This will ensure that the untapped innovative talent of the layman is channeled towards national development.

Many school and college students has good innovative idea,even some farmer and common man do some innovation, but it can't reach to all over India. So govermentmovements should do something about this. And all schools has to need to give more focus on practicle knowledge. We need thinkers more then degrees.

- Funding agencies must work in more efficient and time-bound manner. If they are not able to support existing projects, they should not float new schemes every other day.

- MHRD must subscribe to a variety of standard international journals for each and every subject that we deal with in the institutes/universities. These subscriptions must be made available to all academic and research organisations through a national network. This will not only ensure timely availability of all sorts of necessary information required for teaching and quality research but also drastically cut down the expenditure of Govt. of India in this front.

- All research projects, especially those proposed in basic sciences such as life science must be for a duration of 5 years, extendable for another 6 months in extra-ordinary cases. This is because project JRFs/SRFs join for a Ph.D. and usually it takes more or less 5 years to complete a proper Ph.D. work, at least in basic sciences such as molecular biology.

- Today, promotion of faculty members is dependent on their specific contribution in the areas of academics, research and administration. There is a number of old and new institutes/universities etc. Research grants must be made generously available to all the faculty members for writing scientifically valid research proposals. Once a grant has been sanctioned, fund release must be routinely made latest by June every year, irrespective of any discrepancies / ambiguities, if any.
