SRINAGAR: A three-week international-level workshop on interdisciplinary research methodology started at the University of Kashmir on Monday.

Stressing on the need for promoting interdisciplinary research in academic institutions, Prof Talat said the flagship National Education Policy-2020 lays great emphasis on interdisciplinary research and young researchers, therefore, need to gear up to meet its objectives.
