REVIEW AND PUBLICATION POLICY

PEER REVIEW PROCESS:

The journal follows standard double-blind peer-review procedures with regard to all academic articles. This involves sending scripts out to one national and two international reviewers. The anonymity of both the contributor and the reviewers is maintained.

DECISIONS:

Manuscripts are evaluated anonymously by outside experts, whose recommendations are considered in the editorial decision. The decision-making and review process can take about 3-6 months. The contributors are communicated and informed about progress on their submissions and decision with regard to the publication of their papers.

Authors are requested to STRICTLY OBSERVE THE SUBMISSION GUIDELINES (AUTHOR’S GUIDELINES) to avoid rejection of manuscripts.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE REVISED MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION:

The authors must ensure that they have responded to all the comments by the reviewers and/or the editor, in detail, in the author’s response letter. The author’s response letter must not contain the author’s name.
The authors must ensure that they have sent the revised manuscript files.

CALL FOR PAPERS AND SUBMISSION DEADLINE:

The research papers for the issue of a year are accepted by the end of June. The papers received after this are considered for the subsequent issue.

PUBLICATION FEE:

In order to meet publication and related expenses, the authors are supposed to pay the prescribed amount of publication fees after the acceptance of their papers.
