A scholar, who is having h-index, has published h number of papers, where each of the papers has been cited in other papers at least h times. Thus, the h-index reflects both the number of publications and the number of citations per publication. The index works properly only for comparing scholars working in the same field.

Thanks Ms. Chakrabarty for explaining the issue in very simple & understandable language.

Such ways of explanations are getting extinct day by day.

Sincerely,
