New technology to be used to check spurious drugs

The use of the latest technology to curb growing menace of spurious drugs has been suggested by Dr. BR Jagatshetty, Drugs Controller of Karnataka.
The Karnataka government has called for utilization of computerized techniques, enhance co-operation and co-ordination between states and empowering the drugs control department with more powers.
The drugs control department works in close tandem with the intelligence department of the state which provides it with the tip off of ongoing spurious trade.
