Solution

The correct option is B Ghaziabad
In its 2018 edition of Indian Pharmacopoeia, the Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC) approved modern, animal-free tests for drug manufacturers. This step would spare animals from suffering due to drug experiments. IPC is an autonomous institution of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare which sets standards for all drugs that are manufactured, sold and consumed in India. It is headquartered in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh.
