The cover story in this edition is about Sputnik, the third vaccine to get the go-ahead from the Drug Controller of India for emergency use. At least five Indian pharma firms are on track to manufacture 852 million doses of the controversial Russian vaccine. The Hetero Group, for instance, has committed to manufacture 100 million doses.

That apart, this issue is also a ‘Sustainability Special’ and has stories on efforts across industries to make the planet greener.
