ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CHEMICALS AND FERTILIZERS

(SHRI BHAGWANTH KHUBA)
(a): Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices Bureau of India (PMBI), a society under the aegis of the Department of Pharmaceuticals, the implementing agency of ‘Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Jan Aushadhi Pariyojana’ has decided criteria/ norms for setting up Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Jan Aushadhi Kendras (PMBJKs) in the country. The details regarding eligibility criteria, requirements for opening of Kendras, margin & incentives, etc. are available on PMBI’s website, viz., janaushadhi.gov.in.
(b): As on 31.12.2022, about 9,000 PMBJKs have been opened in the country. State-wise and district-wise list of these Kendras is enclosed as Annexure.
(c) and (d): The government has fixed a target to have about 10,000 Kendras all over the country by March, 2024. No municipal body/ sub- division headquarter level target to open PMBJKs has been decided. There are already over 1100 kendras approved in Government premises. PMBI has recently invited online applications from 651 different districts of the country where the coverage of the Kendras is relatively low.
(e) and (f): There is no state/ district wise target of opening PMBJKs. Ajmer District has presently only 3 Kendras, and hence PMBI has invited online applications for additional kendras from the Ajmer district, including other districts in the country.
