Karnataka orders anti-drug committees across RGUHS-affiliated colleges
Why it matters
RGUHS-affiliated institutions now face an immediate governance and compliance requirement to set up formal anti-drug bodies, creating a clear enforcement hook for inspections and penalties. Colleges without committees risk administrative measures that can disrupt campus operations and approvals. The state also signaled a parallel expansion of organ retrieval centres in government hospitals, which would require budget allocation, staffing, and procurement planning once formally approved.
