Coronavirus outbreak Pharmacists demand escape from police raj

Nagpur | Friday | 27th March, 2020

Summary:

Major depots in Bhiwandi, Pune and Nagpur that have carrying and forwarding units have started sending stock to retailers across the state. I have received complaints that police beat up employees and raided warehouses from where medicines were despatched to retailers. During their discussion with the police and FDA, it was decided to issue transit passes to pharmacists and owners by local police stations. There are people in each family who need medicines regularly. We don't want any social unrest when we are able to function in association with government agencies,” said Shinde..
