We follow a double blind peer-review process i.e., the identities of both the author and the reviewer are concealed throughout the peer review process. We are dedicated to prompt evaluation and publication of fully accepted papers in all our journals to ensure a high-quality publication, all submissions undergo a rigorous review process. The manuscript is checked by the journal’s editorial office to ensure the files are complete. Once this is done, the manuscript is assigned to an Editor/Reviewer on the basis of their subject expertise for a recommendation to accept or reject it, or else with a request for revision before it is published. Based on the recommendation of the reviewer’s and editor’s after review, the author is intimated about the acceptance or rejection, major/minor changes of an article.
