Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC) Recognized by WHO SEARN as Regional Centre of Excellence in Pharmacovigilance and Technical Centre in Quality of Medicines

The study note is complete at /tmp/ipc_who_searn_upsc_notes.md. It's grounded in PIB (Tier 1) and WHO.int (Tier 2) sources for the core facts — I flagged the IPC founding year (1956) and Ghaziabad HQ as provisional since those specific details only surfaced via a non-whitelisted Wikipedia result, not confirmed in the PIB/WHO fetches. Everything else (the WHO SEARN recognition, delegation names, PvPI/MvPI/IPRS/IMPRS, the 2017 WHO Collaborating Centre status, and the 2023 PDG membership) is Tier 1/2 sourced.
