The World Health Organisation recently announced a ‘global health crisis’ of increased antibiotic resistance. The studies done by WHO have marked India as one of the countries to be suffering from the consequence.

Three medical researchers working as an Associate Professors at R D Gardi Medical College, Ujjain, Dr. Ashish Pathak, Vishal Diwan and Dr. Megha Sharma, conducted a study in Ujjain to get to know the real cause of the problem and to find out solutions for the same. 


A part of their study also looked after the impact of antibiotics on environment around, specially focusing on animal husbandry and fisheries. The team was in Bangalore to present a seminar on ‘Antibiotic Resistance: No Action Today, No Cure Tomorrow’ last week. The seminar was organised by Environment Support Group.
