The motivation for this book comes from long term experience in teaching and supervising doctoral research, where I have repeatedly observed that students often struggle not with subject matter, but with citation, originality, journal selection, and basic awareness of research misconduct. This book is written especially for Indian PhD scholars, with direct reference to the UGC’s Research and Publication Ethics course, plagiarism regulations, institutional repositories, UGC CARE related considerations, and the everyday challenges of thesis writing and article publication. Each chapter is structured as a ready to use module, complete with explanations, checklists, and practical scenarios, so that the content can be used in coursework, self study, or classroom teaching. # book publisher in Haryana# Hisar
