Following a threat from the All Food and Drugs License Holders Association (AFDLHA) regarding stopping the supply of medicines to civic-run hospitals, the BMC has decided to reconsider its move of blacklisting a drug supplier.

On Tuesday, BMC's Health department blacklisted Medico Private Limited for its failure to meet the deadline with regard to the supply of essential medicines at civic-run hospitals. The company had, however, already paid Rs 14lakh as compensation for their delay in supplying stock. The BMC had earlier blacklisted another such company for default too.
