He also said that the research contribution from India has improved significantly in last couple of decades and with around 3.5 lakh published papers, it is third highest after China and the US. “Apart from the most familiar research areas like technology, engineering and health, Indian researchers are exploring new areas like agriculture, biotech, electronics and space science. The country is doing much better in terms of quality and integrity,” he said.
