"Ouriginal" - THE ANTI-PLAGIARISM TOOL

OURIGINAL (formerly known as URKUND) is a plagiarism detection tool provided by INFLIBNET.

Please read the instructions carefully before submitting your documents to Ouriginal

Please ensure you are ready with the final draft of your research work before submitting it for plagiarism check.
Once document is submitted to Ouriginal, it becomes part of Ouriginal database and may cause issues, if the same document is submitted multiple times. Hence, the tool must be used carefully.
All the documents must be prepared using Unicode compliant font(e.g. for Hindi, use Mangal font) otherwise plagiarism check cannot be performed.
According to UGC Regulation, 2018, the similarity checks for plagiarism shall exclude the following:

i.All quoted work reproduced with all necessary permission and/or attribution.

ii.All references, bibliography, table of content, preface and acknowledgements.

iii.All generic terms, laws, standard symbols and standards equations.
OURIGINAL will not accept e-mails without an attachment. Nothing that is pasted into or written directly in the body of the email will be analyzed. It is advised to write "Plagiarism Check - Thesis" or "Plagiarism Check- Research Article" in the subject area.

Step 1: Prepare your document in one of the supported file format by Ouriginal [See section "Supported File Formats"] with your name and department e.g. Santosh_LIS.pdf; Ritesh_Psychology.docx; Abhishek_LIS.doc; Shashank_Management.ppt etc. All Chapters should be in a single file.

This service is available only for students, teachers and researchers belonging to BHU. Users uploading their document should use their e-mail id of 'bhu.ac.in' domain and provide their complete details of their affiliation, including department and supervisor name with supervisor's email id (in case of students).

For documents in Hindi, Sanskrit or other Indian Languages, the typed text should be Unicode compliant. No analysis will be performed for such documents. Google Input Tool supports typing of Indian language text in Unicode compliant format.

Analysis for a document can be performed only upto two times. Hence, please ensure you are submitting the final draft of your work.

All Chapters should be combined to make a single file for analysis. Otherwise separate reports for each chapter will be generated and similarity index cannot be figured out.
