Hi
This has come up multiple times in here in the past, and I don't have a particularly helpful response as the HEC is a separate entity from us.
From what I can tell from a quick online search, you will need to address that with the HEC and there are online portals for making that contact. It is possible that your paper was added to the repository when you did a check before submitting and that's why there is a match? Perhaps look into it from that angle and see if it's possible to delete it?
