Review policy

The Indian Journal of Legal Affairs and Research follows a transparent and rigorous double-blind peer review process to ensure the highest academic standards. Our process includes:

Initial Editorial Assessment: Upon submission, all manuscripts are first evaluated by the editorial team to ensure they meet the journal's scope and quality criteria.

Double-Blind Peer Review: Manuscripts passing the initial check are sent to at least two independent experts in the field, where both authors and reviewers remain anonymous to ensure objectivity.

Reviewer Feedback: Authors are provided with detailed reviewer comments to guide manuscript improvements.

Revision and Resubmission: If revisions are required, authors must respond to each comment with a revised manuscript. Failure to address the feedback adequately may result in rejection.

Final Decision: The editorial board makes the final publication decision based on the reviewers' recommendations and the quality of the revisions.

Our review process typically takes 4-6 weeks. The Indian Journal of Legal Affairs and Research is committed to a fair and timely review process to maintain academic integrity and author satisfaction.
