the reviewers don’t know who is authoring the work. The review process takes
two months and the status would be known within two months of submission of
the article. It is mandatory to mention a valid email address with

while sending a query about a paper submitted online. In the first page

full addresses (institute’s address along with designation and

accompany the manuscript on separate pages. The article should mention the
time period in which the research was conducted. The corresponding author
should send a signed soft copy of the Author Disclosure Form for Reviewal
