The Comptroller and Auditor General of India inaugurated the ‘Chadwick House: Navigating Audit Heritage’ Museum at Shimla on June 24. A significant milestone in the preservation and celebration of the institution’s rich heritage and contributions to the nation’s governance.Chadwick House, a significant landmark in Shimla, boasts a rich and extensive history. Its historical significance is further highlighted by Mahatma Gandhi’s stay in 1946 during his visit to Shimla for the Cabinet Mission. Post-independence, in 1950, a training school for the Indian Audit and Accounts Service was started here. With the training establishment moving, Chadwick House gradually fell into disrepair.
