Plagiarism is nothing short of stealing and publication is another author's work. It is an act of dishonesty and a crime.  Only cowards resort to  such evil act,this kind of dishonesty.

Such deeds should be discouraged by all means

It used to be rampant so much so that article writing sites began to take extra measures to detect plagiarism. A few years ago I used to write articles​ for a UK based travel site and other sites as well. I was shocked to see several if my travel experience s being posted on another site by a member. I complained and it was set right..

In fact copy pasting from the net without acknowledging the source is also a crime which some here do regularly..

A few years ago. quite a good number of Books which were plagiarised were caught. The thing is these plagiarised books are available cheaply. Poor librarian was taken in to custody for keeping the plagiarized books in the public library.

Plagiarism is a stealing and stealing is not, of course, a good thing to do. This type of activity is done by that person who is not interested in doing hard work

and wanted everything to come to him itself which is not possible at all.

It also shows the mentality of a person who is extremely selfish and has no morals and ethics and one can find such people  everywhere ..even here !

There's a famous phrase- 'pot calling the kettle black'. I wonder who that applies to...

How are plagiarized available cheaply? Is there any difference in the price tag of original work or that of plagiarized one? I think you are confusing the plagiarized work with pirated version. 

Plagiarism is an unethical and should not be done. But I guess fame is more important than following ethics to some people. Bollywood has often been plagued with cases of plagiarism. Even very famous music composers like Any Malik has been accused with plagiarism.

Yes, even Pritam has been involved in most cases of plagiarism. I don't know why they even try to copy.
