The Role of AI in Research and Academic Publishing in Indian Universities

Abstract This review paper explores the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in research and academic publishing within Indian universities. As AI tools increasingly permeate academia globally, Indian higher education institutions are integrating technologies like machine learning, natural language processing, and generative AI to enhance research design, data analysis, manuscript preparation, peer review, and academic integrity. The study systematically examines literature and policy documents from national educational bodies, highlighting both opportunities and challenges of AI integration. Key findings indicate that AI enhances research efficiency, democratizes access to scholarly tools, and supports quality assurance in publishing processes. However, regulatory and ethical gaps persist, particularly concerning authorship attribution, data bias, and misuse of generative content. The paper underscores the need for AI literacy among faculty and students, as well as the development of culturally relevant and transparent AI tools tailored to the Indian academic context. It further critiques the limited policy frameworks currently available, advocating for comprehensive guidelines by UGC and AICTE to manage AI's ethical use in research. The review concludes with strategic recommendations for stakeholders, including academic institutions, publishers, and AI developers, to foster a responsible, inclusive, and future-ready AI-driven academic ecosystem in India.
