Karnataka FDA seizes drugs worth ₹4 lakh from illegal storage

The Drugs Enforcement Wing of Karnataka's Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA) conducted raids on unlicensed e-commerce storage facilities, seizing large quantities of unauthorized medicines. Intelligence reports led to the crackdown due to serious compliance breaches. Two teams were involved in the operation - one led by Manohar, Assistant Drugs Controller (ADC) from the State Intelligence Branch, and the other led by Vibha, a Drugs Inspector based in Bangalore Rural.

Manohar's team raided Amazon Seller Services Private Limited in Anekal, seizing medicines worth ₹2,45,352 that were stored without a valid drug license. Simultaneously, Vibha's team in Devanahalli seized ₹1,57,000 worth of illegally stored medicines from another unlicensed Amazon facility at Aerospace Park.
