Clone journal web pages are a forged replica of an authentic journal that exploit the title and ISSN of legitimate journals with slight variations in text, numbers, or website URL. Earlier it was quite a task to identify which one is a cloned journal and the authentic one. Still, University Grants Commission (UGC) recently released a list of 24 clone journals that are allegedly operating online on the appearance of original and believed to have misguided the entire research community for an extended period.  This article will list the cloned journals in Group I and Group II of UGC CARE approved journals. **[MS after Engineering – Complete Guide](https://blog.foreignadmits.com/ms-after-engineering-complete-guide/)** #### **What is UGC – Care?** The UGC CARE takes responsibility for preparing the UGC CARE Reference List of Quality Journals (UGC CARE List). UGC CARE has made two Groups of Journals. This list includes the Indian and Global Journals from disciplines of Arts, Humanities, Languages, etc. The UGC CARE Group I is updated regularly every quarter. #### **List of Cloned Journals (UGC-CARE) Group I** **Sr.No.****Print Journals** **(Included in UGC-CARE List)****Cloned Journals** **(Not Included in UGC-CARE List)**1.
