Abstract
Data and Information are an integral component resulting to form the knowledge. In terms of research information management (e-resource), the Institutional Repository (IR) has played an immense role. Research data is another important asset of research which needs to be properly managed. The situations of research data management in European, American and Australian continents is very much advanced and are having a well research data management platform for their researcher. But when we study the research data management aspect basically in Indian context, then the situation is quite different than the other countries of the world. In Indian universities, a lot of research data has been collected by the researcher which is unutilized after the completion of research. This paper explores that what is the present status of research data management policy in Indian context. It also highlights on how India can have the research data management policy in the field of academics. It further reflects the proposed policy on how INFLIBNET centre can act as a national platform or nodal centre to build the anticipated IARDR. The paper at the end shows the merit and limitation of the proposed IARDR and the role of libraries.
