In the first meeting of the Himachal Pradesh Forensic Science Development Board, the Government created Regional Forensic Science Laboratory, Central Range, Mandi to cover central range districts for quick and timely availability of the scientific reports in crime investigations. Initially in the year 2008 the RFSL, CR Mandi was temporarily housed in a rented accommodation at Gutkar at NH-21 . Recently the RFSL moved to its own new complex in March, 2013, when additional grant worth amounting to rupees 50 lacs was released by the Govt. in February, 2013 to complete the ongoing work. The complex has an area of about 10,000 square feet and constructed as per passive solar principles. The RFSL Mandi is
