Dear Readers, Researchers, and Contributors,

We are delighted to share a significant milestone regarding our journal’s global standing. Following official communication from the ISSN Centre India (CSIR-NISCPR) on March 17, 2026, we are happy to inform you that our records have been formally validated and our ISSN (2584-1394) is now confirmed and registered with the ISSN International Portal. This validation ensures that the scholarly work of our contributors is now more discoverable and recognized within the global academic community.

Building on this momentum, we are also pleased to announce that we are actively on the way to being indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). Our formal application is being finalized and will be submitted shortly, further solidifying our commitment to open-access excellence and rigorous publication ethics.

This issue features diverse contributions that bridge the gap between theoretical inquiry and practical, sustainable development. We extend our sincere gratitude to our authors for their intellectual rigor, to our reviewers for their critical insights, and to our editorial team for their tireless efforts.

As we move forward in 2026, we invite you to continue sharing your groundbreaking research with us as we strengthen the impact and visibility of IJERST.
