The official also informed that the details of research work and findings of scholars will be kept confidential and will not be added to the online portal.
Currently, all the work-related records of Ph.D. programmes including admission, research report, interview, attendance, viva, thesis, marks, progress report and others are maintained manually.
The official added that this manual file system will soon be replaced by the online portal. This will save time and resources of the DU authorities and will enable the Ph.D. students to keep a track of their progress via the internet.
