The Himachal Pradesh government has decided to make an anti-chitta (drug screening) test compulsory for all candidates applying for government recruitment positions.
In a significant move to combat drug abuse and trafficking, the Himachal Pradesh government has announced that an anti-drug screening test will be made mandatory for all future government recruitments.
This decision is part of the state's intensified campaign aimed at curbing the pervasive issue of drug-related problems.
The mandatory screening is expected to act as a deterrent and ensure that individuals entering public service are free from substance abuse.
