Use of Anti Plagiarism Software for Detection of Plagiarism in Research Work in the North East Region with Special Reference to Gauhati University

Abstract

This paper discusses the uses of the anti plagiarism software and its impact on research work. This paper attempts to make an extensive study of its use in the NE region with special focus on Gauhati University. The study would show how Urkund has been highly used by the University of Gauhati and the Central University of Tezpur compared to other universities of the NE Region, where it is still in a preliminary stage. Importantly the use of Urkund, as our study shows, has been highly beneficial to almost 85% research scholars in Gauhati University for improving their research work.
