Union health minister Mansukh Mandaviya while speaking at an event 'Indian industry interaction with G20 Health Working Group delegates' in Gandhinagar said on Sunday that healthcare is more than just a sector - it is a mission.

"(It is) a mission to provide the highest quality healthcare to every citizen of our great nation. Our pharmaceutical and medical devices industry stands as a vital partner in this mission," Mandaviya said.

India, the minister said, is recognized as a global pharmaceutical hub, with its industry playing a pivotal role in improving health outcomes worldwide by serving, as a dependable supplier of affordable and high-quality drugs.

He added India has played a significant role in enhancing global accessibility by providing approximately 60 per cent of the global vaccine supply and 20-22 per cent of generic medicine exports. (ANI)
