Prof. Singh also briefly showcased the outreach and research activities performed by NLU Tripura in last one year when university started its journey.

Speaking at the event, Chief Justice of the High Court of Tripura, Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh, praised the swift advancement and progress of the National Law University (NLU) Tripura and conveyed optimism about its potential to become a leading legal education institution in India. During a gathering, Justice Singh expressed his pride, stating, “Today, as I stand here in front of you, I feel a sense of pride that NLU Tripura has kicked off in such a grand fashion and is on the course of making a mark on its own.” He highlighted the importance of both infrastructure and academic environment in the growth of any institution.

Justice Singh commended NLU Tripura for excelling in both aspects, noting, “Today, we can proudly say that Tripura has a full-fledged teaching faculty, and the first and second batches of NLU Tripura are performing exceptionally well.” He acknowledged the efforts of all stakeholders in the university’s development.
