Mitra–Paul–Sarkar's conjecture on primes in multiplicative intervals

From papers

Let m,n\mathdsNm,n\in\mathds{N}, let π(x)\pi(x) denote the prime-counting function, and let \lceil\cdot\rceil denote the ceiling function. Mitra–Paul–Sarkar's conjecture. If

n1.1log2.5m,n\geq \lceil 1.1\log 2.5m\rceil,

then

π(mn)π(n)m1.\pi(mn)-\pi(n)\geq m-1.

This conjecture gives a lower bound for the number of primes in the interval (n,mn](n,mn]. The source presents it as a conjecture of Mitra, Paul, and Sarkar; its resolution status is not established in the supplied text.
