Launching the Aushadhi Express: Advancing Pharma Cold Chain Connectivity The inaugural reefer rake carrying pharmaceutical products—Aushadhi Express—from ICD Sanathnagar (SNF) to Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNPT) was flagged off on 2 May 2026 at 12:30 hrs by Shri Sanjay Kumar Srivastava, IRSE, General Manager, South Central Railway (SCR), and Shri Sanjay Swarup, CMD, CONCOR. The event was attended by senior leadership and dignitaries including Smt. K. Padmaja, IRTS, PCOM/SCR; Smt. Ity Pandey, IRTS, PCCM/SCR; Shri R. Gopalakrishnan, IRTS, DRM, Secunderabad Division; Shri R. Sudharshan, IRTS, CFTM/SCR; Ms. G. Gayatri, IRTS, Area-III Head, CONCOR; Smt. Anita Barik, IRTS, Cluster Head, Hyderabad; and Shri Girija Shankar, Shri Jaibhaskar Kothandaraman, and Shri Ashish Agrawal, Directors, Maersk. Senior officials from Railways, CONCOR, and Maersk Shipping Line, along with logistics partners and key stakeholders, were also present. The flag-off from ICD Sanathnagar marks a key milestone in strengthening rail–port integration in pharma logistics, ensuring faster, safer, and more efficient movement of temperature-sensitive pharma cargo to JNPT Port, Mumbai. Hyderabad, often referred to as the “Pharma Capital of India,” continues to be a major driver for such initiatives, with key clusters including Genome Valley (Turkapally), Jeedimetla Industrial Area, Patancheru, Nacharam and Cherlapally, Pashamylaram Industrial Area, and Mucherla in Ranga Reddy district—home to one of the world’s largest integrated pharmaceutical industrial parks spanning over 19,000 acres. Inauguration of the Aushadhi Express from ICD Sanathnagar bridges these production centers with JNPT, India's premier maritime gateway. By integrating rail and port logistics, this initiative ensures the rapid, secure, and highly efficient movement of temperature-sensitive pharma cargo to international markets.
