Beware of Cloned journals
UGC-Cell for Journal Analysis, Center for Publication Ethics (CPE) at Savitribai Phule Pune University(SPPU), Pune, has been notified of cloned and online versions of print-only, authentic Journals on its UGC-CARE List. The ISSN, title, logo, etc have been cloned.
Scholars are cautioned against such cloned versions of Journals on the UGC-CARE List and are requested to verify with the CPE whenever they are in doubt about the veracity of any Journal. We also request that news of such cloned Journals be reported to the CPE at the earliest.
