International Journal Ayrurveda and Pharmaceutical
Chemistry does not utilize the services of eminent or senior
scientist for its editorial board and its decision are
independent, unbiased by scientific or national prejudices
of particular individuals. However, quick decisions and
publications is our motto. The judgment about paper

readership is made by our editors and not by referees. We
believe that referees see a fraction of the papers submitted

editors, who see all the submitted papers, have a broader
perspective and a wider context.
