Need to strengthen pharma research: Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya
New Delhi: Union Chemicals and Fertilizers Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Monday said there is a need to strengthen research in the pharma sector and ensure close collaboration between research institutions and the industry.
He also highlighted the progress made by the pharma sector in the country and said it has emerged as the ''Pharmacy of World''.
"...We are ahead in formulations, but are lacking behind in research. How do we move ahead in research? For this a road map should emerge from the lecture series organised by NIPER...," Mandaviya said.
National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) should also come up with a roadmap on how they can collaborate with the industry. So that they can share their knowledge with the world, he said while virtually inaugurating the celebrations of the iconic week, under Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, by NIPER Mohali.
The Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers is organising a week-long gamut of activities to celebrate Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav during October 4-10.
