The UGC 2009 Ph.D. regulation has set the minimum standards for admission procedure, allocation of supervisors, eligibility criteria for supervisors, course work duration and minimum number of students admitted to those programmes. The present study is related to evaluation of implementation of University Grants Commission (UGC) regulation [Minimum Standards and Procedure for Awards of M.Phil. /Ph.D. Degree, Regulation 2009] for doctoral (Ph.D.) programmes in various State and Central Universities of Central India in terms of allocation of supervisor. A survey was carried out on a sample of 64 supervisors and 128 research scholars of different Universities of Central India. There is no uniformity in the procedure for allocating a supervisor to a scholar. Different department of Universities follow their own rule for the allocation of supervisor. These rules depend on the situation and condition of course programme of particular departments. Different Universities follow different pattern for allocation of supervisor. The findings have implications for policy makers and educationists for enhancing the quality of research work.
