Explanation
The Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan (RUSA) is a centrally sponsored scheme to fund and reform state public universities and colleges, with objectives including affiliation, academic and examination reforms (B), correcting regional imbalances in higher-education access (C) and fostering research and innovation (D).
