Plagiarism Policy

Submissions of manuscripts are accepted for publication with the stipulation that the work must be original, unpublished, and unsubmitted for publication elsewhere. Every manuscript that is received is run through "Turnitin" for a similarity check, where the maximum similarity index allowed is 18% (Pakistan HEC) . If the submitted manuscript contains plagiarism or is based on false information (such as photo or graph manipulation), sanctions and/or blacklisting could be applied, which could have significant repercussions.
