Sports Minister Anurag Thakur on Thursday said that the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has restored the accreditation of the National Dope Testing Laboratory (NDTL), which was suspended in 2019 because of its failure to comply with global standards.

The NDTL can resume testing with immediate effect. “National Dope Testing Laboratory  regains the World Anti-Doping Agency accreditation,” Thakur tweeted.
