Aamir Khan and the Parliamentary panel met over to discuss core issues related to the medical fraternity including FDI in pharmaceuticals on Thursday. Sources of a news channel have revealed that the meeting concluded on a successful note.

The actor, who was in the capital with his research team made a comprehensive presentation to the committee headed by Rajya Sabha MP Shanta Kumar of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

The news channel reported that the actor refused to divulge details of the meeting. However, sources from the committee informed the media house that the key issue that was discussed was about the FDI in pharmaceuticals and the price factor of drugs.

Khan looked happy to be a part of the committee meet and to have given his inputs to formulate a better system. He also appreciated the governments of Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan for their efforts for providing quality healthcare to the civilians of their respective states.

MP Shanta Kumar is of the opinion that the meeting with Aamir will bear fruits.
