Jaipur: The government of Rajasthan is set to revive Rajasthan Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Limited (RDPL), a Central Public Sector Undertaking (CPSU) based in the state.  RDPL is jointly owned by the Central government, which holds a 51% equity stake, and the Rajasthan state government, which owns the remaining 49%.

The decision to revive RDPL was announced earlier in the budget, and the Department of Medical and Health has begun follow-up measures. As part of this effort, Neha Giri, Managing Director of Rajasthan Medical Services Corporation Limited (RMSCL), recently conducted an inspection of the RDPL.
