As the Himachal Pradesh government contemplates legalising the growing of cannabis in the State, a team of legislators on Saturday visited neighbouring Uttarakhand to explore the possibility of legal cultivation of the flowering plant.
State’s Revenue and Tribal Development Minister Jagat Singh Negi, who heads the committee of MLAs constituted to study the possibilities of cannabis cultivation, told The Hindu that the report surrounding all aspects of the same would be submitted to the State government within the next two months.
The Himachal Pradesh government recently formed a five-member committee of MLAs to conduct a thorough study about each aspect related to cannabis cultivation in the State.
