In paper "Robust reversible data hiding scheme based on two-layer embedding strategy" published in INS recently, Kumar et al. proposed an Robust Reversible Data Hiding (RRDH) scheme based on two-layer embedding. Secret data is embedded into Most Significant Bit (MSB) planes and sorting strategy based on local complexity is adopted to reduce distortion. However, Kumar et al.'s RDH scheme is not as robust as stated and can not be called RRDH. In this comment, we give a brief description of Kumar et al.'s RDH scheme at first and then show robust testing experiments by analysing the changes in each bit plane after Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) compression and the changes in pixel value ordering.
