IRPC CHAPTERS
IRPC Started establishing Chapters in several countries since its inception in 1999. The main role of IRPC chapters is to work hand in hand to achieve the mission and objectives of IRPC. In some of the Chapters, the honourable members have been retired and IRPC is in the process of selecting or nominating new faculty. The Chapters have the autonomy to function based on the rules and regulations existing in a country
