Reality against Myths (PCI book)😢
What PCI has to say?
Drugs Control officers can not take action for non compliance with PPR or Pharmacy Act.
Incidentally, the term " Pharmacy" contemplated under Rule 65(15)(c) refers to establishments complying with Schedule N of Drugs and Cosmetics Rules. For records, establishments possessing license for " Pharmacy" in compliance with Schedule N is in single digits, may be TWO or THREE in the entire State of Karnataka. Even these two or three need not comply with PPR. They have to comply with Schedule N.
Let me also clarify that the medical shops where D.Pharm holders are engaged and whose number in the State is more than 30000 and for whose upliftment you are fighting for are referred as " Chemists and Druggists " under Rule 65(15)(c).
I have been saying PPR has no legal sanctity. None has bothered to look into this and everyone harps on implementing PPR.
Lastly, :
1. To implement SECTION 42 of Pharmacy Act separate authority is contemplated. State Councils are accountable if they have not appointed inspectors to implement Section 42 for decades.
2. Your observation Drugs regulatory together with State pharmacy Council can make the system water tight for violators is a wishful thinking."...

Attn:#PCI
This has happend is happening because:
1.PCI administrators do not know how to administer the office.
2. PCI do not follow Government Office Manual and PCI is being managed without due documentation and #Accountability, otherwise how the President's resignation letter was accepted without scrutiny and someone takes over without any fuss.
4.PCI is playing irresponsibly with the life of millions of youngsters leaving them Blindfold!
5. PCI is luxurious jambooree to the members to make family trips.
Poor pharmacists 😢
