The Lexfolio Journal of Law, Policy and Social Sciences (LJLPS) welcomes submissions from Nepali academicians, LLM and PhD scholars, and legal practitioners. Here’s what Nepali authors specifically should know before submitting.
Scope relevant to Nepali scholarship
LJLPS covers law, public policy and allied social sciences broadly — constitutional law (Nepal’s post-2015 federal constitutional framework is of particular comparative interest), human rights, environmental and disaster-law policy, and India-Nepal comparative legal scholarship are all well within scope, given the close historical and legal ties between the two jurisdictions.
Why publish internationally
University Grants Commission Nepal and Tribhuvan University academic promotion criteria generally reward publication in peer-reviewed journals with proper indexing — LJLPS is built to meet these standards. Nepali scholars publishing in LJLPS also gain direct visibility to an Indian legal-academic readership given the geographic and legal proximity between the two countries.
Submission process and fees
Submit via the online form with your manuscript as a Word file. Standard review is free; a paid fast-track review option exists for a faster decision. Article processing charges apply only after acceptance, and international authors can pay online by card.
Formatting requirements
