Visakhapatnam, Oct 25:
Power has been restored to almost all the units in the Jawahar Pharma
City at Parawada in Visakhapatnam district by Saturday and the units are
making all preparations to resume production after the damage wrought
by Hudhud cyclone.
Dr. P.P Lal Krishna, the head of operations, Ramky Pharma City (India)
Ltd, said here on Saturday that at present 54 units were functioning in
the pharma city including major ones such as Eisai Pharma, Hospital and
Mylan. "Power has been restored to all the units except one or two due
to some technical problems and normalcy has been restored. We are also
receiving the required quantum of water for the units. The common
facilities such as the effluent treatment plant are back to normal. It
is for the units to revive production and it may take a few days," he
said.
Even though the damage to each unit is yet to be enumerated, apart from
the production loss, the total loss to the pharma city may roughly be Rs
500 crore or so, according to industry sources.
