Padma Forum condoles sad demise of Prof Ranjit Roy Chaudhury, the face behind clinical trial regulations

His loss is a big blow to clinical research and the healthcare industry in India. Under his guidance, the county saw the introduction of new regulations and policies built on the principles of scientific research and a framework based on quality, ethics and patient safety. 

He was the head of the Committee to Formulate Policy and Guidelines for Approval of New Drugs, Clinical Trials and Banning of Drugs formed under the ministry of health & family welfare.

He  passed away in Chennai yesterday morning, where he was there to deliver speech in a conference on Pharmacovigilance, organised at Sri Ramachandra University, Chennai.

He developed the "Delhi Model" of Rational Use of Medicines and took steps to provide almost 90 per cent of medicines prescribed by the government hospitals, free to the patients. He is the founder of Delhi Society for the Promotion of Rational Use of Medicines. 

He also was responsible for Task Force preparing the "Antibiotic Policy" of the Government of India.

He was the Founder President of Delhi Medical Council, and was in the expert committee of Indian Council of Medical Research. 

The Indian Society for Clinical Research (ISCR) also has expressed its condolences over his death.

A great man, a respected friend and a visionary and leader for the all doctors.  I am shocked at his sudden demise. 

My heartfelt condolences to all ‘near and dear ones’.  While we are extremely saddened by his demise, his smiles and deeds will always be alive with us.  May his noble soul rest in peace.

Sudden demise of Prof Ranjit Roy Chaudhury is a National loss and a big void for the medical fraternity. He was a symbol of par- excellence. May his noble soul rest in peace and God give strength to his family more particularly Mrs Chaudhury to bear this sudden loss.
Since I am on duty travel, I will not be able to attend the prayer meeting on Saturday.

It is a very very sad news. The sudden and untimely death of Prof. Ranjit Roy Chaudhary is a huge loss. Such a lively optimist, full of enthusiasm, never to say die man.
It was a pleasure to have worked together in MCI and several committees, including at ILBS. I would personally miss him a lot.
Hope God blessed that soul  rests in Heaven in peace and the family can bear the loss

I am extremely sad to learn about the sad demise of Prof Ranjit Roy Chaudhury who left for heavenly abode. I had few chances to meet with him. I very clearly remember meeting him in PGI Chandigarh when Prof. K.K. Talwar was the Director there and I was highly impressed with his vision, forward thinking and selfless dedication.

We pray to Almighty God to rest his soul in peace.

Ashok
