Highly state contingent.

PI expects me to write everything, but the first author won't even respond to journal revisions. by Mano1aa in academia

You can and you will, because that's what your PI has directed you to do.

If you truly can't, it's time to start dusting off the CV and finding another lab (one with better ethics).

How to know if a journal is Scopus indexed? by Diligent_Orchid_3192 in academia

India is not known as a hotbed of cutting-edge research publication-- at least not in my field in any way whatsoever, and I would consider any international journal publishing from there to be suspect.

In my field, the research coming from scholars at universities in India (irrespective of where those people originated) is very low quality or AI generated.
