The open access publishing through internet is an effective tool for knowledge distribution more widely however, this publishing also goes through the processes of proof reading, editing, digital presentation and archiving of your work, indexing etc. which still needs some costs. Therefore, we charge Article Processing Fee (APC) for the submitted articles to be published cover these costs, ensuring their work is properly evaluated for quality and made easy to find, download and read., although these charges are required only once after your manuscript has gone through the peer review and accepted for publication and are irrespective of the length h of the article or number of Figures. Compared to the charges for print version of the publications these charges are only a fraction of that.
