What is the simple and less cost way to do PhD. And after completing PhD. can I prefix doctor before my name.

Ans: Dear Anmol,

Few options to consider-
Look for universities or institutes that offer fully funded Ph.D.
Seek out for scholarships grants, fellowships, and other funding opportunities to help cover other expenses.
Look for part-time and online programs- they have lower tuition costs and allow the student to study remotely.
Opt for collaborative research -with government agencies, NGO's etc
Look for distance learning or open universities- they have low tuition costs
Look for a sponsorship- maybe your current employer if you are working. Few organizations support it.

Regarding the use of the title "Doctor" before your name after completing a Ph.D., it's generally accepted practice to use the title "Dr." as a prefix once you have earned a doctoral degree. Well, it differs from country to country.

Hope this helps. All the very best.
To Your Success
Thanks and Regards

Relationship
My wife posts everything on social media. Earlier she used to post about food and travel and our kids. Now if we have a fight or argument, she turns it into a funny reel or feminism post and everyone on her feed starts commenting. I am not on social media but when we meet socially, our common friends have started making fun of me like I am the villain. She calls herself an influencer and says it is helping her reach a wider audience. I told her she shouldn't post without my permission and it is leading to big arguments. I feel it is unfair. What should I do? Please help me sir
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand where you are coming from; it's not just the post. It's about your private life being turned into public content and mockery. Your reaction is valid and yes, it is unfair. I understand her interest in building an online presence, but it has to be separated from your right to privacy. Start with a calm conversation about this; express, verbally, how her posts make you feel. Instead of saying, "You can't post about is," try saying, "When our problems become content, it hurts the relationship and me." Or, you can say, "I am so happy that you are making content, but not when it involves our problems." It's the best way to frame the expression without sounding accusatory. Be clear about your boundaries: no posts about private matters, and consent is key. Give her real-word examples, like how your friends mock you. Try to keep the conversation as less accusatory as possible, to avoid a bigger conflict. Start with communicating your feelings.

Best Wishes
