The Dharmashastra National Law University, Jabalpur (DNLU) established the Centre for Research in Competition Law and Policy on February 24, 2020, following the Competition Commission of India’s appointment of DNLU to a panel of reputed institutions with expertise in law, economics, finance, and management for Competitive Assessment of Economic Bills and Legislations.
In order to foster legal dialogue and research in the topic of competition law, the Centre for Research in Competition Law and Policy (CRCLP) has launched a student-run blog, the CRCLP Blog. The blog’s goal is to raise knowledge of current topics in competition law while also encouraging discussion about those concerns. In addition, the blog serves as a venue for delving into areas relevant to competition law that have not previously been thoroughly studied.
