The Manipur Chemist & Druggist Association (MCDA) has appealed to the authorities concerned to take up necessary steps for the safe arrival of trucks carrying medicines which are stranded on the highways due to the communal clash prevailing in the state.
MCDA president Rakesh Rajkumar said in a release that the organisation has been seeking quick intervention from the state government to provide all kinds of medicines abundantly as most of the life saving drugs are out of stock.
