The threat posed by antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to public health as well as global health security has been reiterated in umerous World ... Assembly (WHA) resolutions.

The Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, and the Hon’ble Union Minister for Health, Shri J.P. Nadda have reiterated government’s commitment to tackle AMR.
