Theses submitted to various universities are not available most of the
time for reference due to various reasons. Comparing notes on research
already done is a difficult proposition. And this has led to repetition
of research on the same topics causing wastage of human resources, money
and time.
To provide an open and easy access to Indian theses and dissertations to the academic community worldwide and to avoid repetitions, the University Grants Commission in collaboration with Inflibnet (information library network) has come up with an innovative concept called ‘Shodhganga,’ a repository of Indian theses.
The system
The theses submitted by research scholars of Indian universities will be uploaded on the repository. One can go through the entire gamut of theses of choice and refer other theses too, with the help of Shodhganga. Digitisation is also part of the project wherein universities are given funds to digitise old theses.
Plagiarism in research can be avoided to a great deal with Shodhganga. The universities will be provided softwares to detect plagiarism.
