He said this policy aims to establish Odisha as a strategic entry point for India’s healthcare manufacturing and life science sectors. It will create a planned roadmap for strategic and cluster formation, aligning with the vision of a prosperous Odisha by 2036 and a developed India by 2047, he added.
He said the policy envisions the setting up of the Odisha Pharma Park and Odisha Medtech Park to provide necessary industrial infrastructure.
