About Us

Policy making is challenging and critical given the dynamic nature of India’s polity and society. Information overload is a common feature of any economy which is striving towards effective policy formulation and implementation. Often the first information which a common man receives might not be the complete information which is backed by intensive research. Half information is worse than having no information. Most of the citizens today are plagued with half information. Any policy formulation first generates an energetic exercise of information searching and in the process of the same a policy maker encounters bewildering amount of raw and sometimes processed knowledge. Information overload without effective knowledge to analyse and process has the capacity of misleading policy makers thereby choking an economy’s development goals.
