Why researchers use us
The frustration isn't rejection. It's silence.
Most scholars will take a clear "no" over six months of nothing. What makes journal submission miserable is the absence of information — no acknowledgement, no status, no named person to write to, and no idea whether the paper is under review or lost.
We run our journals on the opposite principle. Every submission is acknowledged, every author knows who their editorial contact is, and review periods are stated up front rather than discovered by waiting.
That is not a claim about how selective we are. It is a claim about how we treat the people who send us work.
What you can expect
- Acknowledgement of every submission, with a reference number.
- A named editorial contact you can actually write to.
- Stated review period, communicated when your paper is logged.
- Reviewer comments passed on in full, whatever the decision.
- A clear decision — accept, revise or decline. Not silence.
- Publication certificate and citation details on acceptance.
The process
From submission to publication
01
Submit
Email your manuscript with an abstract, keywords, author details and affiliation. Include a declaration that the work is original, unpublished and not under consideration elsewhere.
02
Acknowledgement and initial screening
You receive a reference number within 48 hours. The editorial desk checks scope, completeness and formatting before anything goes to review — so a paper isn't sitting in a queue it was never right for.
03
Peer review
Your paper goes to subject reviewers. You are told the expected review period when the paper is logged, and if it slips, you are told that too.
04
Decision and revision
Accept, revise or decline, with the reviewers' comments passed on in full. Where revision is asked for, you get a clear list and a date.
05
Publication
Accepted papers are typeset, proofed with you, and published in the next available issue. You receive citation details and a publication certificate for your record.

Scope, frequency and submission windows for each. Write to the editorial desk if you're unsure which fits your paper — we'd rather redirect you early than review you into the wrong venue.

What we ask of authors
Originality, stated plainly
Every submission must come with a declaration that the work is your own, previously unpublished, and not simultaneously under review elsewhere.
- Cite properly. Quoted, adapted or translated material must be attributed and, where it is substantial, cleared with the rights holder.
- Declare prior publication. If any part has appeared before — a conference paper, a preprint, a thesis chapter — tell us in the covering note.
- Name all authors. Everyone listed must have agreed to the submission, and nobody who contributed should be left off.
- Disclose funding and conflicts where relevant to the work.
On predatory publishing
Indian researchers have been badly served by journals that promise indexing they do not have and review that does not happen. It has made scholars rightly sceptical.
So check us the way you should check anyone: ask for the ISSN, ask what indexing we actually hold, ask what the review period is, and ask who the editorial board are. If a journal will not answer those four questions in writing, that tells you what you need to know.
We will answer them.
