About the PRS Legislative Research

PRS is a leading research group with the mission to strengthen India’s democracy by helping Parliament and state assemblies be more effective.  These institutions make laws, hold the governments accountable and allocate public funds.  It is important that they have information and analysis to perform their functions well, and that citizens have channels of engaging with their elected representatives.

About the Internship

PRS offers rolling internships throughout the year.The PRS staff consists of a team of dedicated professionals with different areas of expertise and is broadly divided into the research and outreach departments.

While the research team analyses legislative and policy issues of topical interest, the outreach team tracks the working of the legislatures and legislators, manages citizen engagement, and is PRS’s interface with the MPs and MLAs.

The duration of the internship is flexible, but is normally between four and eight weeks.  Interns are expected to report to office for the internship.

A prospective intern can apply for an internship in either/both departments.
