Multiple outlets report that researchers affiliated with Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU) and GM University have been recognized in a global ranking of the world’s top 2% scientists. Times of India states that 25 MDU researchers are included among the top 2% in their fields, while The Hindu highlights a GM University researcher’s placement in the same category.
The reports frame the recognition as an external validation of research impact based on bibliometric indicators used in the ranking. While both articles focus on inclusion in the top 2% list, the coverage differs in emphasis: Times of India centers on the number of recognized researchers at MDU, whereas The Hindu spotlights an individual researcher from GM University. Both describe the acknowledgment as bringing institutional visibility and reflecting sustained scholarly output.
Across sources, the core point remains that the named researchers are listed among the world’s top 2% of scientists, according to the methodology of the ranking referenced by the outlets. The specific name, field, and ranking cohort details are not provided in the excerpts shared here.
