West Bengal Bans 137 Medicines Due to Quality Concerns

The West Bengal government has banned 137 medicines because they weren't good enough.

Think of it like a teacher checking homework and some were graded poorly.

The government is worried about fake or low-quality medicines, and has been finding them in raids.

They're making sure all the stores and wholesalers check their medicines too.

Some medicines for important things like blood pressure are affected.

The government is also telling people to be careful and is checking hospitals to make sure only safe medicines are used.

The government is taking action because of problems they've seen in the past.
