রক্তের আড়ালে ৪ কোটির প্লাজমা বিক্রি ভিনরাজ্যে! তদন্তের ইঙ্গিত স্বাস্থ্যমন্ত্রীর

According to a report by Sangbad Pratidin, West Bengal’s health authorities have launched an investigation into allegations of illegal plasma sales involving several blood banks across the state. The controversy centers on claims that plasma collected through voluntary blood donation camps was diverted and sold to entities outside the state for profit.

State Health Minister Sharadwat Mukherjee addressed the issue on Monday, indicating that the scale of the alleged malpractice is significant. According to the minister, preliminary estimates suggest that plasma worth approximately 40 million rupees may have been sold illegally to buyers in other states. The government has signaled that a thorough probe is underway to identify the blood banks involved and the individuals responsible for the unauthorized transactions.

This investigation highlights ongoing concerns regarding the management and distribution of blood components within the state's healthcare infrastructure. As the inquiry proceeds, authorities are expected to review the operational protocols of the implicated facilities to prevent future diversions of medical resources. Further details regarding the scope of the investigation and potential regulatory actions are anticipated as the health department continues its audit of blood bank records.
