The Centre for Policies, Laws and Agenda, NUSRL (CPLAN) has been established in the year 2023 at the National University of Study and Research in Law, Ranchi (NUSRL). In an era marked by dynamic global challenges, the need for thoughtful and informed policy decisions has never been greater. CPLAN is poised to emerge as a leading think tank, working at the intersection of policy, law, and national development. The primary objective and idea behind the inception of the Centre is to promote and facilitate research and activities in the field of Constitutional Law, Legislative Drafting, and Policy Research.
