My DBA Professor Told Me to AVOID INDIAN RESEARCH PAPERS. Here’s Why That’s a Wake-Up Call. 🤔 Currently pursuing my DBA (Doctorate of Business Administration), and a recent comment in a live class from a professor hit me hard. The advice? "Don't read Indian papers for research; the quality is so poor. Stick to Australian, American, and European papers." Honestly, that's a bitter pill to swallow. It sparks some critical questions for us: ✅ The Uncomfortable Truth? This advice came from an Indian professor teaching at an international institution. While we all know and celebrate the excellent research that does come out of India, her perspective makes one seriously question: is there a broader, systemic issue with quality that even our own academics working at global standards feel compelled to give such dark warnings? ✅ Impact on "Brand India": If this is a common perception, what does it mean for our intellectual capital, our global academic standing, and the credibility of our homegrown innovation? ✅ Fueling Brain Drain?: If our own best minds are told to look outward for quality research, how do we build a robust, self-reliant R&D ecosystem here? The Path Forward: This isn't about defensiveness; it's a wake-up call. We need a serious push for: 👉 Investing in and promoting quality over quantity in research. 👉 Stricter academic integrity and peer-review processes. 👉 Better global showcasing of high-calibre Indian research. This isn't just an academic issue; it impacts our entrepreneurs, businesses relying on cutting-edge knowledge, and our nation's overall innovation journey. What are your experiences? How do we collectively raise the bar and change this perception?
