This Act amends the original 1998 legislation governing the National Academy of Legal Studies and Research (NALSAR) University. Its primary purpose is to align the university's governance and admission policies with the state of Telangana. Key changes include designating the Chief Justice of the Telangana High Court as the Chancellor and updating the composition of university bodies like the General Council and Finance Committee to reflect the state's jurisdiction. Crucially, it introduces a 25% reservation quota for resident students of Telangana in university courses, establishing specific residency and educational criteria to qualify for this benefit.
