CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal : Higher Education, Technical Education, and AYUSH Minister Inder Singh Parmar stated that pharmacy students need to work harder and dedicate themselves to expanding the trade and production of indigenous medicines. Many countries around the world already use medicines produced in India, and the goal is to increase the global adoption of Indian pharmaceutical products.
Minister Parmar was addressing the inauguration of the two-day 12th Vision Pharma National Convention at Oxford International College, Indore, themed “Indian Pharmacist Innovation to Impact for Developed India-2047.” The event was attended by national-level council officials Chhaganbhai Patel, Aniket Selke (National Coordinator, Pharma Vision), Virendra Solanki, along with Chairman of Oxford International College Akshanshu Tiwari, Principal Priya Jain, and State Convener of Pharma Vision, Ms. Kamaksha Goud.
Minister Parmar highlighted that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the country is progressing toward the vision of Developed India 2047 across multiple sectors. He urged the students to adopt this national vision as their personal mission and emphasized that pharmacy students can make a significant contribution to increasing India’s strength and production capacity.
He added that by 2047, India will become self-reliant in the energy sector and will be capable of supplying energy to several countries globally. He also noted that farmers have made India self-sufficient in food grains, filling the nation’s granaries, and by 2047, India will have the capacity to feed other countries as well.
Minister Parmar announced that Ayurveda syllabus integration into pharmacy education will soon take place, with expert consultation ongoing. He further stated that in the future, a common syllabus for all streams — allopathic, homeopathic, and Ayurvedic pharmacy courses will be developed according to need.
He highlighted that under Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s leadership, 11 new Ayurvedic colleges were sanctioned in Madhya Pradesh, with 8 colleges already recognized by the Government of India, and the new colleges will begin operations next year.
To enhance transparency in examinations, all exams will undergo digital evaluation, allowing students to view their answer sheets online. Minister Parmar emphasized that India is moving forward to reclaim its position as the world’s knowledge leader.
Principal Priya Jain of Oxford International College mentioned that the convention includes numerous sessions related to pharmacy, while Ms. Kamaksha Goud expressed gratitude. A large number of pharmacy students from colleges across India attended the program.
