Chennai, Feb 28 (UNI) An International workshop on Quality Control and Assurance for Indian Medicinal Plants, Medicines and Value-Added products will be held here from tomorrow.
The two-day workshop is being organised by the Federation of Indian Herbal Industries (FIHI) in association with the Voluntary Health Education and Rural Development Society (VHERDS), FIHI Secretary R Balan said in a release here today.
The meeting was being held on the advice of President A P J Abdul Kalam, who had appealed to the FIHI, when its office-bearers met him, to validate the traditional Indian drugs to meet the scientific demands of the western world.
The workshop would develop a universally accepted analytical format and demystify the scientific protocols as demanded by them.
About 150 delegates, including 20 eminent speakers from Canada, United States and Europe would participate in the workshop, which was expected to bridge the present gaps between the western buyers and Indian exporters and in turn benefit the local herbing farming community.
