New Delhi [India], December 23 (ANI): Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Anurag Singh Thakur on Thursday said that National Dope Testing Laboratory (NDTL) has regained the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) accreditation.
"National Dope Testing Laboratory (NDTL) regains the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) accreditation. Restoration of accreditation is a boost to India's efforts to achieve the highest global standards of excellence in sport. This is the result of untiring efforts by GOI," he said in a tweet.
"Last week in Parliament, we introduced 'The National Anti-Doping Bill 2021', which is another step in India's quest to become a sporting powerhouse," he added.
Earlier in July, WADA had suspended accreditation of NDTL in New Delhi for the second period of up to six months.
An original six-month suspension had been imposed on the NDTL in August 2019 due to non-conformities with the International Standard for Laboratories (ISL) identified during a WADA site visit, in relation to the laboratory's isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC/C/IRMS) analytical method, as regulated by the relevant WADA Technical Document (TD2016IRMS).
