@@_kartik_chauhan Huh? do you think bjp is doing any good in the policing making in the economy of india, instead of liberalizing industries more they are putting import duties and putting price controls everywhere they want, which actually creates monopoly in these industries, and helps some fraction of companies and the only people suffering from this are consumers because they have to pay a larger amount of their income while getting low quality goods. Stop thinking black and white, I accept that INC did no good to the economy except when manmohan singh liberalized the economy in 1991, but I think bjp is also in the same state and maybe much worse because of their communal politics and other stupid policies.

My cousin went to US for his PhD at Carnegie Mellon University in machine learning and computer vision in 2010. It is considered one of world's top computer science universities for research. He completed his PhD in 2014, worked in Meta (Facebook) research for 2 years and then came back to India in 2016. He was frustrated with work culture, lack of research jobs and heavy bureaucracy even in academia. The only reason he came back was to be closer to his parents and family. After 2 years of frustration, he returned back to US in 2018. He received his green card in 2021, and now no longer wants to return to India. He still visits India two times a year to see parents, and his parents visit him once a year. He can easily afford business class tickets for his parents so they are not in discomfort, shows how well paid and respected researchers are.

[@ankurpanchal4971]

I am a physics researcher, graduated from IISER Pune. I just cant express how relatable this topic is to me! It almost made me cry as I am going through the same hardships since last 2+ years. I graduated from IISER Pune(which is a science research institute in India, and probably one of the best after IISc, TIFR etc) in 2021. Since then I have been trying to find a PhD position outside India because of all these reasons stated here in the video. In this process I even got admitted to other IISER-X (name not specified on purpose) where my goal was to upgrade my profile (by publishing my first research paper), then apply outside India for better opportunities. But the situation of research in India is so worse than I expected that, even to leave that institute, it took me 2 years. The research environment, work culture and overall scientific temperament of the crowd there was so disappointing that my research work which was almost finished in 2021 took 2 years because of the lazy environment in X-institute. Finally, I had to resign from my PhD program from that institute and my paper was published recently (July 2023). All this could have been avoided had the environment being better. In fact, I would have liked to continue doing my PhD in an Indian institute too, had the environment of research be anywhere close to my master’s institute IISER Pune. And currently I am again searching for a PhD outside India, because the only institutes I can rely on (basically they must at least of the quality of my previous institution or better) are IISc Bangalore or TIFR Mumbai. I do not intend to say other institutes are bad but considering my research field (particle physics) and my passion for the subject, I haven’t heard about any other institutes which have any equal or better environment, from people studying there. It’s really easy for people to say that all the talent leaves India for money in other countries, but what those people don’t understand is that- it’s not explicitly the money that matters. It’s the respect that the money conveys. Any expert of a particular subject has spent years to earn that expertise and talent. When a government, organisation, institution offers more money it automatically reflects the fact that they respect your expertise and need it. This gives immense satisfaction to anyone who has worked hard to be at that position, and this in turn gives more motivation to study further and innovate. It’s a positive feedback loop. The least these researchers can expect is the motivated research environment where people are passionate about their own fields and aiming to innovate something new. Even if the institute-X would have offered me that environment, I’d have stayed with lesser money… AN UPDATE: I have recently got a research associate(RA) position at IISc Bangalore. I'll most likely be working on muon colliders phenomenology. For those who don't know about RA positions- it's a contract based and usually funded position to collaborate on a small project (1 year-ish). The benefit of this is that I get to build my profile strong working on this position, so a new experience, a new potential research paper at the end and thus higher chances of getting a PhD position at better places.

The exact reason why I was so against doing PhD in India. Unfortunately even I left India to pursure my research in Biotechnology from South Korea. This content is the most relatable problem in India at the present moment. Fun fact I have qualified GATE& CSIR and those exams are more respected outside of India than in India while PhD admission process. Our government asks us to come back to India, they should question themselves why so many Indian students are leaving their comfort zone, their families at late 20s and decide to move to a completely alien country.

One you can take a job in any Biotech company and work your way up or you can stay in Academia and do your Masters then PhD etc. If you want to do Masters in India you need GATE or you can clear CSIR and work in a lab directly, getting your master and PhD. If you want to go abroad find universities you are interested in and mail the professors and students working in the professor 's lab. You will find videos and guides on the internet on how to do that. Just be genuine.

Indian education system is designed to make labours out of us but not the free thinkers and innovators. Starting from the very beginning we are taught to memorize answers and write them exactly word to word in the exams conducted and marks are awarded based on how close your answer is to the answers which were provided to you in the classes. On the other hand it's very opposite in the western countries, even the assignments which gets submitted as part of the curriculum get checked for plagiarism. One of my friend was almost thrown out of her university for submitting an assignment which she copied from the previous year's assignment.

[@rutvikrs]

India needs more labourers first. They enable the free thinkers and innovators later. Japan, Korea and China were sweat shops first, industrial giants later and today IP/product owners.

I was a Masters Research Scholar at IIT Madras. As a GATE cleared MS scholar we were paid merely 12400 rupees per month by MHRD. I joined IIT after leaving an engineering job with a higher pay, because I really wanted to do research and become a scientist. I managed to publish my paper in a reputed international conference (after months of waiting to get accepted). However, since the stipend is for a fixed duration, I had to work for a few months without any stipend. I spent all my savings to survive and had to ask money from parents. It was a shame since I joined research after leaving a job and my parents supported throughout. I want to do a PhD now but not from India.

[@hillcipher1688]

There is another caveat. The grading system provides higher rank to those who have pursued PhD from any university outside India that is ranked within the top 500 QS University Rankings. However, the Indian central universities have continuously contested the validity of these rankings. They say that the rankings do not respect and understand the Indian education system and thus the rankings are not suitable to rank Indian institutes (because all that make it to the list of Top 1000 is merely 10-20 institutes). That said, if they don't believe in it, why ask for it?

I am a material scientiest and I completed my masters and PhD from TU Delft, Netherlands, and have closely collaborated with IISc Bangalore and IIT Roorkee during my thesis. I have seen a stark difference in the atmosphere of labs and access to infrastructure. Very apt video showcasing the research environment and situation in India.I feel there is a strong hierarchy in Indian universties which results in somewhat fearful environment. And I have been long critique of the academic publication system which has so many cons. A research (or collaboration) done with the aim of publication does not result in a fruitful contribution. Being a reviewer of scientific articles myself, I see even the best journals accept somewhat poor quality of articles, just because of contacts and other polical reasons. In my case, I did not want to publish papers before finishing thesis and wanted to make videos instead, and my supervisors agreed to it. I have a chapter on reviewing youtube video, which is absolutely uncommon in technical thesis. Doing this in India is unthinkable in current atmosphere. I have shifted back to India after decade of living in netherlands, and I truly belive that India has a great potential, but research and universities are still lacking the positive trend as seen in other sectors.

How do you motivate people without having the means to inspire them? What have these professors done with their careers and how many industry experts do they know? Blaming it on the education system has become a crutch when the problem is we are a feudal society being given post industrial revolution education. Simplest demonstration: when was the last time you calculated the area of a triangle(5-6th standard syllabus)? This kind of education makes sense to a kid who lives in atleast an industrial society where standardisation is the norm. Even if our parents are carpenters, they will ask us to buy "wood". In the global north the same family asks the kid to buy a 2-by-2. Teaching geometry without enforced standardisation is useless. India needs to focus on becoming the factory of the world before we can think of creating a world class general education.

I am a PhD in France, and the labs are well funded here. We don't need to think twice before buying a 1000 EUR chemical. It also gives us enough freedom to explore as an individual. I have pursued my master's at IIT Roorkee in Chemistry Department, and we were dealing with toxic nanomaterials. But, for the sake of lab, we had a huge room where 9-10 of us were sitting in the middle and performing our experiments on the benches surrounding us. That's how much they care about one of the top institutions for research; I can't even imagine how it would be in other institutes. Although, I hear many positive things from IISc, JNCASR, and IISERs. One more thing is the work-life balance which is very difficult to imagine as a PhD in India where Saturday is a normal working day IITs. In the case of Citations, I think China is even worse than us in having faulty research, buying paper citations, and many others.

Hi, Mohak. This is Shyam. Thanks a lot for highlighting a very important topic which should be discussed. I have also gone through the immense pressure of publications during my academic career. I am living in Brazil from last 8 years. I am working as a post doctoral researcher here in Fiocruz, Rio de Janiero. Here, I work in modeling of vector borne diseases such as dengue. I am living here with my wife and daughter. I did my PhD ( applied mathematics) in India from Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai in 2013. After my PhD, I applied for pdf position in department of mechanical engineering., IIT Bombay. Initially they gave me three month position. From begining there was só much pressure to publish a research paper. After one month, they told me my pdf application was denied. One professor humiliated me too. During my stay at IIT, I got a pdf offer from one university in Portugal. I accepted the offer and moved to Portugal in May 2013. After, Portugal I got a pdf offer from Brazil. Since, then I am here in Brazil moving from one universities to other. Now, I have more than 10 years post PhD experience. In 2016, I have applied in many Indian universities for the position of assistant professor in mathematics. Only two of them shortlisted me for the interview. In the interview, most of them are only interested about the teaching. They are not intersted in the research and innovation. Even though, they dont have online interview process. Later I realized it will be too difficult for me to find a faculty position. I came to knwo that if you have strong network ( I mean if your supervisor is influential) then there is some possibility to get a teaching position. Later, I stopped searching in India, I decided to search in Brazil and other countries. Then after pandemic, I thought to reapply in different universities in India for the faculty position. I came to know that since, I did not did have a PhD from IIT or NIT therefore it is very difficult to be shortlisted for the faculty interview. I have seen in my home state Odisha, in many universities and degree colleges, there are many faculty psoitions are not filled for many years. The situation is very bad. Regarding publications, it is now difficult to publish in a good journals both in Elsevier and Scopus indexed journals. In my research area of mathematical biology, the top journals are asking around $1200 to publish papers. Now a days, publishing a research paper is a full buisnee. If you or your professors have lot of fundings, they you can publish in top research journals. I knew some professors in brazil, they have published in good journals by paying publishing fee. Its really frustrating and sad to see such commercialization in the research. In Brazil too the govt. did not give much money to researchers. From last 10 years they did not increase the researchers fellowship. The previous goverment was a nightmare for research. Now this new goverment has only increased 25% of the fellowship. Here in Brazil, the situtation is same. I hope, both in India and Brazil things will change. Thanks again, for covering a very important topic.

Even though it's a good guarantee for the students and scholars, I can see how scholars don't even have their own room to do their research and How Our Professors are tortured with load of works that they don't even have time to take classes for us. Just because they're grateful for the job they got immediately doesn't mean that they are happy, they deserve more.

There is 180 degree difference between Indian companies and risks or innovation. Indian students are trained to follow already drawn or planned path but not to make their own path. Indian can be runner-up at best but never be winner. Also, Govt want top talents to work outside Indian so that they can get effortless foreign currency as remittance to compensate for trade deficit.

In American universities, also, mostly placements don,t happen there. They find their jobs by means of networking and off - campus placements. Even in IITs also, govt. pay crores of subsidies, to give that infrastructure, quality of education and for more opportunities there etc. Everyone father's pay taxes, but the benefits of those taxes only given to limited students or candidates, to respect their hardwork and talent. But most of the peoples, there only go for placements and packages in MNCs. Some candidates also for govt. Jobs, 😅😅 And majorly go for those clerical types of jobs, which is mostly should given to the graduating students of lower colleges, where govt. spend less support packages like NITs, majorly, IITs, etc. And even in police exams, which is imp. for security purpose, corruption was happen in there, then what can we expect from that police, for security which roots are black.....😅.

[@officeofdesigndevelopmenta3685]

The current focus in India's system is on promoting literacy rather than comprehensive education. This approach leads to the development of highly literate individuals who possess the skills to code, tackle mathematical challenges, and perform intricate cognitive tasks. Conversely, individuals with lower levels of literacy are constrained to fundamental reading and writing abilities.

[@nil.shiv.1064]

That was a really great explanation, In my college time for the final year project our professor forces for do publication and involve their name in it otherwise they do not pass us in project viva.

That cannot happen because even if one tries to do good opposition parties will oppose to it. Like they opposed NEP 2020 & even Digital India!! And India cannot have any PM do such because our systems and structures are not like that. "Right" things most of times are not "popular" things. Communal(Religious, castiest, ethic, linguistic) cards prepare solid vote banks. And if not that then there's "party society " model of West Bengal which is going for last 40 years. And of course subsidies exist as a cheap way. In current West Minster democracy model citizens are vote banks. Every developed nation of last 60 years(formerly developing) practised some sort of benovelent dictatorships. Our neighbour Bangladesh is growing faster than us where opponents are virtually absent(96% votes go to Awami League and elections are controlled by their cadres and state machineries). Everyone knows about PRC- social transformation by Mao's dictatorship and economic one by Deng dictatorship. Similarly for south Korea (Park Chung), Singapore (Lee Kuan), Turkey(Attaturk). They were famous benovelent dictators who magically transformed their nation. Also in India there's another problem- federalism. PM is nowhere close to the amount of power and authority of the Chinese President over the country. There are issues divided into central, state and collateral (joint) lists resulting in centre vs state, state vs state struggle. So a revolutionary change in all of our systems and structures under a benovelent strongly centralized authoritarian rule a poor country India can be transformed into a powerful country.
