Instructions for Authors

Publishing ethics

Varad Publishing House abides itself in ethical responsibility towards the confidentiality, coherency, and respect to the manuscripts submitted to it for consideration for publishing in its volumes. The manuscripts are essential parts of its knowledge platform and are in fact the means of its existence. Varad Publishing House accepts that manuscripts are knowledge assets of the authors and are the direct reflection of their research works and achievements. We accept that the manuscripts are outcome of joint efforts and inputs from authors, co-authors, and associated institutions. Looking into the sensitivity of the research content, Varad Publishing House accepts the need of ethical behaviour for all stakeholders (authors, reviewers, editors, coordinators, achievers, and others) involved in the process of publishing of research manuscripts.

General Instructions for Authors:
