The Tamil Nadu government has ordered an immediate ban on the sale and distribution of the popular ‘Coldrif’ cough syrup after reports linked its consumption to the deaths of several children in the state. The directive was issued on October 4, 2025, following investigations by state health authorities and the Food Safety and Drugs Administration (FDA). Preliminary reports suggest that the syrup may have contained contaminants or incorrect formulations, prompting urgent public health action. Hospitals in affected districts confirmed multiple cases of adverse reactions in children, leading to fatalities. Authorities have urged parents to immediately discontinue the use of the syrup and report any symptoms such as nausea, difficulty breathing, or convulsions to medical facilities. The FDA has launched a broader investigation into the manufacturer and is coordinating with central health agencies to ensure accountability and prevent further incidents. Meanwhile, hospitals and health departments are distributing alternative, safe medications and providing guidance to pediatricians and caregivers across Tamil Nadu. The state government has also called for a review of over-the-counter drug monitoring and quality assurance to prevent similar tragedies in the future. #TamilNadu #ColdrifBan #ChildSafety #DrugSafety #PediatricHealth #FDAIndia #PublicHealthAlert #MedicalSafety #HealthAuthorities #SafeMedication
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin has criticized the Union government over the recent Goods and Services Tax (GST) reforms, alleging that states are shouldering half of the financial burden without receiving due recognition or compensation. Stalin pointed out that while Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that citizens would save ₹2.5 lakh crore through GST and income tax relief, the Centre has failed to acknowledge that state governments are contributing 50% of this relief. He further accused the Union government of denying funds to states like Tamil Nadu, citing the withholding of Samagra Shiksha funds as an example of punitive measures against states resisting "Hindi imposition" The GST Council's recent decision to rationalize tax rates has led to significant reductions in the prices of essential goods and services. However, opposition-ruled states, including Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and West Bengal, have expressed concerns about the financial implications of these changes. They have called for a robust revenue protection framework to ensure that the benefits of GST rate cuts are passed on to consumers without adversely affecting state revenues #GSTReform #StateFinances #MKStalin #TamilNadu #GSTRelief #TaxPolicy #Federalism #EconomicImpact #newsone #GSTDebate
