Answer: Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR)
Notes: Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh announced the indigenously developed "Paracetamol" by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) during the 40th Foundation Day of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. CSIR's new technology aims to produce paracetamol domestically, reducing dependence on imported raw materials. Karnataka-based Satya Deeptha Pharmaceuticals Ltd will manufacture affordable paracetamol using this breakthrough. The initiative supports India's self-reliance in pharmaceutical production and aligns with PM Modi's "Atmanirbhar Bharat" vision. The development addresses the current import dependency for key raw materials used in paracetamol production.
