After 17 children died in Chhindwara from drinking adulterated cough syrup, MP CM Mohan Yadav said, "We have collective accountability on this." "When negligence happens...and we lose our people, then it causes a lot of pain...State health minister also visited the affected children," he added. The state has banned 'Coldrif’ syrup after finding it adulterated with over 45% diethylene glycol.
