Telangana: Drugs Control Administration, Telangana has raided a quack's clinic in Thimmapur Village, Jagdevpur Mandal, Siddipet District, and seized drugs illegally stocked worth Rs 50000 for sale.
On credible information, Drugs Control Administration officials, on 24th August, 2025 raided the premises of a quack/unqualified practitioner H. Ramesh, situated at D. No. 1-1, Thimmapur Village, Jagdevpur Mandal, Siddipet District, who was conducting clinical practice without proper qualifications at his clinic.
During the raid, DCA officials detected 32 varieties of medicines, including antibiotics, steroids, analgesics, IV fluids etc. stocked at the premises without a drug licence.
