GUWAHATI: In the wake of the global spread of the pandemic, the only option for the people is to remain inside the home and safeguard themselves from the disease by frequently cleaning their hands besides maintaining the physical distance with each others. There have been a lot of news in the media about non-availability of sanitizers and other related products in the market.

In a statement to media president Dr. NL Agarwala and secretary Jitu Barman of the Chemists & Druggists Association of Assam (CDAA) has clarified and informed that corona related hygiene products including hand sanitisers, masks, etc. have been made available by members of this association at all retail Chemists counters that too at MRPs fixed by the government in larger public interest. CDAA would like to inform the consumers that they can contact pharmacies in their respective areas to procure hand sanitizers and other products like handwash soaps, disinfectants from Dettol, Savlon, etc. at the prices (MRP) fixed by the government across the state.

It is significant that local manufacturers of Assam took the lead in making available these products at government recommended prices while maintaining the quality. The ‘Handuser-C’ of the GRD Pharmaceuticals was the first brand of the N.E. Region which not only made available the sanitizer but also matched the prices recommended by the government.
