Adjunct Senior Lecturer at University of Sydney visits Jan Aushadhi Kendra at AIIMS Delhi
New Delhi: Dr Ann Liebert, Adjunct Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney, visited the Jan Aushadhi Kendra at AIIMS, New Delhi, to gain insights into the Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP) and explore potential avenues for knowledge-sharing and collaboration in the field of affordable healthcare solutions. Dr. Ann is on a visit to Delhi for a media conclave.
Pradhan Mantri Bharatiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP) is an amazing initiative that can be represented in many countries, said Dr. Ann. She added that there are many remote communities in Australia that don't have easy access to pharmacies, and this model of PMBJP could be followed there to provide affordable medicine.
Dr. Ann Liebert commended the efforts of the Government of India in ensuring affordable and high-quality medicines reach citizens. She emphasized that universal access to essential medicines is critical for public health and expressed her appreciation for India’s commitment to this cause.
Dr. Liebert was provided an overview of the Jan Aushadhi initiative, explaining its core objective of making quality generic medicines accessible at affordable prices, where she was given a guided tour of the Kendra, where she observed the range of PMBJP products and gained a deeper understanding of their impact on public healthcare in India.
