The Ministry of Railways is undertaking a noteworthy effort to create Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Kendras (PMBJKs) at railway stations across the nation.
The core goal of this initiative is to guarantee the accessibility of high-quality medicines to the general populace, while also ensuring affordability.
This well-thought-out choice is designed to establish a strong basis for enhanced availability of Janaushadhi products, catering to both travelers and individuals visiting these busy stations.
The locations for PMBJKs will be identified by Railway Divisions, and the stalls will be allocated through an E-auctioning process facilitated by the Indian Railways E-Procurement System (IREPS).
The design of these stalls is entrusted to the esteemed National Institute of Design (NID) Ahmedabad.
