Peer-Blind Review and Publication Process
The editor receives the submitted paper or article from the authors.
The editor verifies the article's relevance to the journal’s policy for publishing such an article, i.e. whether the paper satisfies the needs and technical standards of the journal.
Each paper is checked for plagiarism in the Turnitin Software. A maximum of 10% similarity is allowed as per the UGC and Journal norms. In the event that more than 11% to 20% similarity is found, the author gets a chance to revise and resubmit the paper. If the similarity is greater than 20%, the paper gets rejected.
For linguistic aspects, a preliminary review takes place by the editor through licensed version software.
If the paper successfully gets through the preliminary review, the managerial editor sends the article to two selected reviewers for blind review. The reviewers have the power to select and reject the paper.
The review results received from the reviewers are compiled.
The results will be communicated to the corresponding author, and s/he will be asked to respond to the comments raised by the reviewers.
The corresponding author must respond in due time and clarify ambiguities, if any.
If the editor is satisfied by the author's responses, an acceptance or rejection letter is sent to the corresponding author.
The paper/article gets published, and the print journal copy is delivered to the address of the corresponding author.
Plagiarism Policy
The publisher accepts papers with a maximum 10% similarity, as per the Turnitin report. If a submitted text is found with more than 10% plagiarism, it will be rejected for publication.
Linguistics Policy
The publisher accepts papers with a minimum of 90% accuracy in the linguistic aspects of the submitted paper as per the Grammarly report. If a paper is found with less than 90% accuracy, it will be rejected for publication. The publisher also engages the editors for a manual check of linguistic aspects. The author may be asked for revisions if the editorial board is not satisfied with the quality of the content.
