Sir,
First of all, thank you so much for these valuable information. Can you please give some information regarding M.PHIL/Ph.D in Distance mode. For some time, I have not seen any advertisement/notification for admission in M.PHIL or Ph.D in Distance mode (by Open Universities).
Kindly give me some suggestions on this matter .
Thanks Dr. Barman for a very detailed description. It is indeed a very handy tool for intending researchers. It seems that UGC is gradually tightens the criteria of quality/standard.
