Bidasar (Rajstahan): A foreign-based pharma company allegedly tested their medicines on humans instead of animals, leaving labourers ill in Rajasthan's Bidasar.
The victims were admitted to the Jalpani Hospital in Churu district.
It is reported that the company lured the labourers for money and offered them Rs 500 per day for serving people.
A victim said, "We came here on April 18 and it's been three days. They offered us money so we came. 16 out of 21 people are suffering from it and are admitted to the hospital."
"After having the medicine, we felt sleepy," said another victim.
