Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism Policy

The International Journal of Research and Review in Applied Science, Humanities, and Technology (IJRASHT) has zero tolerance for plagiarism. We are committed to protecting the integrity of the academic record.

1. Detection & Software

All manuscripts submitted to IJRASHT are screened for plagiarism before the peer-review process. We use professional tools such as Turnitin, DrillBit, and iThenticate to ensure that the content is original.

2. Permissible Limits

The journal generally accepts a similarity index of less than 15% (excluding references and bibliography), provided there is no direct copy-pasting from a single source.

3. Action Against Plagiarism

Before Publication: If plagiarism is detected during the submission or review stage, the paper will be automatically rejected. The Editor reserves the right to ban the author(s) from future submissions.

After Publication: If plagiarism is found after the paper has been published, the journal will retract (remove) the article from the website and issue a formal retraction notice.

Apology: The Editor reserves the right to ask the author(s) to submit a formal letter of apology to the original author(s) and the journal management.
