Gandhinagar (Gujarat), Dec 19 (ANI): Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on December 18 complimented Prime Minister Narendra Modi for bringing the health and pharmaceutical ministries under a single minister. He said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi, for the first time, entrusted health as well as pharma ministries in one person. This is so beneficial because all policy of health is dependent on pharma and vice versa.” He further added, “So, when I was pharma minister (chemicals minister), if I would put forth a proposal (before the DCGI), I would have again to go to the health minister for approval. With both combined, it has become holistic because PM Modi saw everything in totality.”
