Foreword
From The Desk of The Principal
Teachers, Research and Extension work are three important functions of an educational
institution, where knowledge is disseminated to students. Research creates new knowledge,
new principles and new theories. The most successful companies in the world are those that
invest in research and development, why should it be any different in the field of education?
We took a small step in the year 2001, when we first started our inhouse academic journal
'Anveshan'. In endeavour to reach out to more teachers and encourage serious research. We
took a big step forward that of officially registering 'Anveshan' as “Research Horizons”. Research
Horizons aims at providing a much wider platform for the teachers to publish their research
papers, articles, book reviews, and creative writing. In the journey we gradually have ahead with
ISSN number, than International multilingual multidisciplinary peer review journal with national
and international advisory members, including subject expert and later on with impact factor and
EBSCO database. During the journey invited articles from only from SNDT University's affiliated
colleges but also with affiliated colleges of Mumbai University and colleges of Gujarat,
Maharashtra and international level writers too. We had publications of papers presented at
International Conference to be held at China and Indonesia.
We were having publication of articles in the areas of humanities, social sciences and
commerce, till volume - 7 Sept. 2017. With the great demand from the writers. We have ahead to
registered separate volume of 'Research Horizons' with ISSN, for the Humanities. Happy to
place before you volume of Research Horizon and No-1 publication of articles exclusive for
humanities now in a true sense 'Research Horizons' be proved as a wider horizon with separate
publication. We proudly state that ours is the only the unique institution having two research
publication in a year. This proves that institute has a strong research culture and teachers been
cultivated research aptitude. Now research can have the strongest pillar of higher education
institution.
We extend our gratitude towards the research paper contributors, our panel of experts,
senior editor, editorial and advisory board and managing editorial team. We congratulate the
contributors of papers/articles for passing through the test of editorial review board.
We are thankful to Shri Chandrasen Merchant for generously supporting us financially for
last fifteen years. Without this moral support and active encouragement it would not be possible
for our team to trying out such an intellectually enriching publication. We especially thanks our
Managing Trustees and other members for being constant source of motivation for us.
Dear Researchers, start preparing your research papers for the next year and submit
them to us by 15th April 2019.
With warm regards
Yours truly,
