Review Process

The journal encourages the submission of original unpublished works.

Hence the JISRS strictly follows the following steps to review the articles.

  • Each manuscript will be primarily examined by the editor, and then forwarded to two referees for blind review.
  • The research paper shall be published subject to recommendation of referees.
  • The review process may take up to two weeks.
  • The Editor relies upon the evaluation reports provided by the reviewers, the originality and relevance of the ideas addressed in the article and the possible contribution to the journal in deciding whether to accept the manuscript for publication.
  • The authors shall be informed about the selection of the article/paper by e-mail only.

Disclaimer

  • The accountability of the article published in the journal is entirely of the author(s) concerned and not of the publisher/editor.
  • The view expressed in the articles of the journal is those of the contributors, and it does not essentially correspond to the views of the publisher/editor.
  • The publisher/editor of the journal is not liable for errors or any consequences arising from the exercise of information contained in it.
