Which among the following is the consortia for higher education e-resources linked to the digital initiatives ?
e-Shodh Sindhu
Under its digital initiatives for higher education, the Ministry of Education created several platforms managed by the INFLIBNET Centre, Gandhinagar.
e-ShodhSindhu is the consortium for higher education electronic resources. It was formed in 2015 by merging the UGC-INFONET Digital Library Consortium, the NLIST programme and the INDEST-AICTE Consortium, and it provides member universities and colleges with access to e-journals, e-books and databases.
Shodhganga is the repository of Indian theses and dissertations, not a consortium for e-resources, while 'e-Shodh Yamuna' and 'e-Shodh Saraswati' are not names of national digital initiatives.
e-Shodh Sindhu option is correct.
