The University Grants Commission (UGC) and the Information and Library Network (INFLIBNET) Centre have established the Shodh Chakra project to aid research scholars and their supervisors in performing their studies. Researchers will be able to collect, organize, save, and reference their findings using the newest technology. Mamidala Jagadesh Kumar, the chairperson of the UGC, unveiled it.
Benefits for scholars:
The INFLIBNET website stated, “It (Shodh Chakra) will enable scholars to build profiles and maintain their preferences.” The software will assist research scholars and their advisors in managing their whole research lifecycle, from literature review through manuscript submission.
