The correct answer is

Prime Minister Research Chair

The Ministry of Education, Government of India, launched the Prime Minister Research Chair (PMRC) scheme in June 2026 to attract globally renowned researchers, scientists, and innovators of Indian origin to Indian universities and higher educational institutions.


Under the scheme, selected scholars are appointed to prestigious research chairs in Indian institutes for a fixed tenure, with support for research funding, infrastructure, and collaboration. The aim is to reverse brain-drain, strengthen India's research ecosystem, boost innovation, and build strong academic linkages between India and the global Indian diaspora.


The initiative complements other research-focused missions such as the Prime Minister's Research Fellowship (PMRF) and the Anusandhan National Research Foundation.


Hence, the correct answer is Prime Minister Research Chair.
