Pharmacy Council of India Identified 45,355 Cases of Duplicate Profiles on Digi-Pharmed Portal Using Same Aadhaar and PAN
The Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) raised concerns over widespread data falsification on the Centre's DIGI-PHARMed portal for teachers. Around 45,355 cases of duplicate or invalid profiles have been identified.
There are over 42,000 pharmacy colleges with around 11.2 million pharmacists being registered with the council. Pharmacists are at the forefront of healthcare, often serving as the first point of contact for those seeking health advice or primary care. Their roles extend far beyond merely dispensing medications.
