Addressing the workshop, Prof. (Dr.) Sudhir Tyagi, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, said that in today’s time, when the Prime Minister of the country envisions making India a developed and prosperous nation by 2047, it becomes the duty of all of us associated with the field of education and the youth to contribute to realizing this vision through innovative and meaningful discoveries and research. He emphasized that today’s youth must pay more attention to research. Organizing a workshop on such an important topic as research paper writing by the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication is commendable. For this, Head of Department Dr. Preeti Singh and her team deserve appreciation.
Addressing the participants, subject expert Dr. Aniruddh Srivastava, In-charge of the Publication Cell, said that there is a dire need for high-quality research work in the present time. However, in the rush to complete research papers quickly, researchers often leave certain shortcomings that prevent their work from getting published in reputed journals. He pointed out that today there is a significant lack of originality and ethics in research papers. Dr. Srivastava elaborated on various aspects of research paper writing and patiently answered all the participants’ questions. He stressed the need to introduce research-related knowledge to undergraduate students from the very first year of their course so that by the time they graduate, they can publish high-quality research papers.
In the concluding session, Head of Department Dr. Preeti Singh thanked all the participants and said that the information provided in this workshop would greatly benefit young people interested in research. She expressed her gratitude to all participants for attending the event.
