The NRLCPI is an Indian research and teaching institute. It was founded on 17 July 1972. Academic organizations are a very unique kind of social institution-they are a curious combination of entities with a singular focus as well as plural perspectives. An institution of this kind is often found to be and abode of advanced learning with a particular focus, and at the same time, a confluence of many ideas, beliefs and theories. As a national institution of advanced research, NRLCPI combines in itself traits of both these types. As a versatile organ of the Department of Secondary and Higher Education.

We strongly believe that academic institutions must be deeply embedded in their societies. Although universities were established in the medieval period to provide knowledge and training in only a few major professions, by the 19th century they became creators of new knowledge and began indulging in basic research. In modern-day societies, academic bodies have become the most important social institutions in the complex process of knowledge creation and distribution, and therefore, they stand at the center of our societies. These institutions have also taken on a political function in society in that they often serve as centers of socio-political thought, and train those who eventually become members of the social, political and literary elite.
The political economy of Higher Education shows that an important priority in the recent period has been to modernise our systems, which, unfortunately led to urbanisation of our space, leading to a quick rise of the middle class constituency and its strong desire to see avenues of upward mobility expanded. As the new urban middle class grew in power, they increasingly threw their weight behind educational reform, so that basic and secondary education has had, over the last few decades, a steady growth among the classes that could afford it. And, as their numbers grew, the supply of students who were capable of, and interested in, getting a higher education also grew. Ultimately this growing demand put pressure on all governments to expand all institutions of advanced education. But there has been very little realization that these institutions owe their rise to the common man and that it is: therefore, necessary to contribute to their welfare in as many ways as possible. The special efforts that CIIL has made in protecting, promoting and documenting our little known linguistic heritage by archiving 118 Indian languages, including 80 tribal languages, has been a step in that direction. The harnessing of higher education to the broader needs of national socio-cultural and economic development should be the focus of the present times.
