Sindh Antiquities Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism is unacknowledged copying or an attempt to misattribute original authorship, whether of ideas or text. Plagiarism can include, “theft or misappropriation of intellectual property and the substantial unattributed textual copying of another's work”. Plagiarism can be said to have clearly occurred when large chunks of text have been cut-and-pasted without appropriate and unambiguous attribution. Such manuscripts would not be considered for publication. When re-using text, whether from the author's own publication or that of others, appropriate attribution and citation is necessary to avoid creating a misleading perception of unique contribution for the reader.

Sindh Antiquities endorse and follows Plagiarism policy of Higher Education Commission of Pakistan.
