How Indian Universities Became Paper Tigers: 10 Radical Ideas to Save It Before It’s Too Late

The Great Indian Education Scam: How Universities Became Paper Tigers & What Comes Next

For years, NAAC accreditations, NIRF rankings, and QS/THE global standings were seen as symbols of prestige.

Today, they are red flags.

• Professors publish research they never wrote.
• Patents exist only on paper, never in the real world.
• Rankings are manipulated, not earned.
