India is facing international condemnation
India is facing international condemnation following the deaths of 19 children in Madhya Pradesh after consuming contaminated Coldrif cough syrup manufactured by Sresan Pharmaceuticals.
Tests revealed the syrup contained diethylene glycol at nearly 500 times the permissible limit, exposing severe lapses in the country’s pharmaceutical regulations.
S. Ranganathan, the Tamil Nadu based owner of Sresan Pharmaceuticals, has been arrested and will face further legal proceedings in Chhindwara.
Meanwhile, authorities have intensified efforts to remove contaminated medicine, recalling hundreds of bottles from retailers & homes in affected areas.
The Tamil Nadu government has revoked Sresan Pharmaceuticals manufacturing licenses, effectively shutting down the
Company.
The Enforcement Directorate is investigating multiple company premises on allegations of money laundering, including homes of officials linked to drug regulation, raising serious questions about systemic corruption & negligence.
India, often called the pharmacy of the world, supplies 40% of generic medicines to the US & over 90% of essential drugs to many African nations.
Yet, this tragedy exposes the stark vulnerabilities in India’s domestic pharmaceutical oversight.
Even with legal mandates requiring testing of every batch & additional scrutiny for exports, contaminated syrups continue to reach consumers, highlighting regulatory failures that risk lives at home & abroad.
The World Health Organisation has flagged India’s regulatory gap in screening medicinal syrups, noting the potential for other contaminated products to circulate.
Authorities have also issued warnings regarding two additional syrups, Respifresh & Relife, manufactured in Gujarat that contain the same toxic chemical, further emphasising the scale of the problem.
This crisis underscores the urgent need for India to enforce strict pharmaceutical safety standards, hold negligent parties accountable & restore global trust in its drug industry.
The loss of young lives in Madhya Pradesh is a stark reminder of the deadly consequences of systemic regulatory failure.
