Plight of Indian Ayurveda Journals

We read with much interest about the plight of Indian research journals in a Guest Editorial in Current Science by Lakhotia¹. He has precisely pointed out the schizophrenic aptitude of Indian scientists when it comes to publishing their research articles. It is highly relevant to see how we prioritize the journals to publish our work. Publishing in journals that are considered ‘international’ or at least non-Indian seems more attractive compared to journals with Indian or national names. It is highly relevant to analyse the impact and consequences of this practice to the whole research process.
