Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh has expressed concern that youth from the state were not making it to judicial services, saying the matter needs to be pondered upon.
"From last many years, none of the youth from Himachal Pradesh has qualified for the judicial service. It is a matter of concern and needs to be pondered upon," he said at a function hosted by Dehra Bar Association last night at Dehra, 60 km from here.
