Medicine stores will remain open 24hrs: Health Minister

Medicine stores will remain open 24 hours, Health Minister Zahid Maleque said.

There is no bar on sale of medicines and pharmaceuticals products after 12am, he added.

"No such instruction has been given. If City Corporation has said something like this, then there will be a discussion. They did not take this decision after discussing," the minister said after a briefing on hospitals at the Secretariat.
