The requirement of two or three publications for PhD scholars stems from the UGC's directive that guides must have a minimum of three publications in the relevant research area to qualify. However, many guides fail to meet this requirement, making them legally ineligible to mentor PhD candidates. This jeopardizes scholars' futures. Consequently, scholars collaborate with their guides to publish articles, ensuring compliance with the UGC's guidelines. While research dissemination is often emphasized, scholars sometimes struggle to publish due to insufficient expert input. The solution lies in understanding the problem, not in conflict, but in collaboration and collective effort to confront reality. So find a subject matter expert, get input and publish Most institutes have over 1000 to 15,000+ candidates waiting in line for publication, and it's a severe problem .... there is a shortage of subject matter experts. Pls, understand. There is a massive shortage of reviewers, too. The publication waiting time has gone beyond ten months and more.
It is possible that the requirement is to test skills and knowledge of PhD scholars such that they are prepared for field practice. I personally think it is a good idea
