If India wants to continue being the pharmacy of the world there can be no laxity on the quality of pharmaceutical products, said Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya speaking at the 8th international conference on the pharma and medical device sector on Friday.
He added that India’s products should be affordable and competitive in the global market. The Minister said that India’s pharmaceutical sector will be contributing more in the coming years to domestic needs and will also continue to cater to global demand.
“Our competitive advantage over other nations is price competitiveness and quality. India’s pharmaceutical industry is robust, resilient, and responsive. Because of these qualities we not only met our domestic demand during the pandemic, but were also able to supply medicines to 150 countries,’‘ he said.
