THE GOVERNMENT HAS gone back on a plan to make it mandatory for pharmaceutical companies to spend a certain portion of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds towards providing free drugs to medicine banks for use by the central government during health emergencies, disasters, or any other circumstances.

In a recent meeting of the Drugs Technical Advisory Board (DTAB), the panel discussed the proposal to amend Drugs Rules, 1945 to include mandatory provisions for pharma companies to spend at least 1% of their net profit on providing free medicines.
