the dental council of india has been insisting that all post-graduate teachers must have "40 Points"..for publications.....

and what is this "40 Points?"

its a total of points you get when your articles are published in a journal.

and what is the criteria on which this point system is based?

international journals are allocatted 10-15 points, as also any speciality journal.

university journals have 10 points, so also national dental association journals, and other state dental associations, and others get 5 points.

its muddling and extremely complicated.

so what happens to those who give lectures in conferences, conduct wokshops, hands-on etc.?

there is no credit given for this..
