Tripura detects 19 illegal de-addiction, mental health rehabilitation centres
Tripura’s State Mental Health Authority has served show‑cause notices to 19 centres operating without authorization for de‑addiction and mental‑health rehabilitation. The action follows a recent violent incident at a rehabilitation facility in Agartala, prompting the authority to scrutinise compliance with licensing rules and ensure patient safety across the state’s treatment establishments. They must respond within a fortnight, else face penalties.
