Drug Control Department Seizes Unlabelled Capsules in Phagwara Inspections
What happened
The Drug Control Department conducted inspections of medical stores in Phagwara as part of the Punjab Government’s anti-drug campaign. During an inspection of Kohli Medical Hall, authorities seized 280 unlabelled capsules for laboratory analysis and five types of allopathic medicines because the store lacked required purchase and sale records. The department also found that medicines were being sold at the premises without a registered pharmacist.

Why it matters
The inspections revealed multiple compliance failures regarding the sale and storage of medicines, leading the department to forward reports to the Licensing Authority for action under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. This action highlights increased regulatory scrutiny over pharmaceutical sales in the region.
