New Delhi, June 26 : The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) Wednesday issued notice to all health secretaries demanding an explanation on the shortage of medicine for tuberculosis (TB).
Last week, the media reported that drugs for treating TB, particularly children, were in short supply across the country.
The NHRC said in a statement that following the media reports, it had "issued notices to the secretary, Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and health secretaries of all state governments/union territories. They have been given two weeks' time to respond".
