UPL SAS supports India in its fight against Malaria & Denague with its public health solutions
New Delhi: Ahead of World Malaria Day, UPL SAS has reaffirmed its commitment to national health through its Public Health Solutions aimed at eradicating malaria and curbing the rising case of dengue.
This initiative marks a significant step in supporting the Government of India’s comprehensive strategies – National Framework for Malaria Elimination (NFME) and National Strategic Plan for Malaria Elimination – which target zero indigenous malaria cases by 2027.
In line with this mission, UPL SAS is driving public awareness and prevention programs in collaboration with municipal corporations across the country. The company has been undertaking projects in both urban and rural settings, including a recent intervention in Udvada village, Gujarat, in collaboration withClean and Green Charitable Trust, and another with the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) in Hyderabad focused on reducing mosquito-borne disease cases.
Building on these successes, UPL SAS is currently in discussions with various municipal bodies and state governments in Gujarat, Telangana, Maharashtra, and Karnataka to scale its public health efforts across more regions. Through these partnerships, the company aims to impact millions of lives, particularly in vulnerable urban and rural communities.
Speaking about the initiative and new solutions, Mr. Ashish Dobhal, CEO of UPL SAS, stated, “UPL SAS’ public health initiative goes beyond agriculture—we are committed to community well-being and environmental sustainability. By offering reliable, effective, and scalable solutions for mosquito control, we aim to support India’s public health goals and create healthier, safer living environments for all, potentially benefiting millions of people across India. We believe collaboration with local authorities and communities is key to achieving lasting impact and driving progress toward a malaria and dengue-free India.”
Speaking about UPL SAS’ solutions, Mr. Subrata Pal, Head of Public Health Business of UPL SAS, said, “UPL SAS, along with its partners, has a comprehensive approach that combines public awareness, habitat modification, larval and adult mosquito control by focusing on sustainable prevention of mosquito population. The first step in UPL SAS’ public health solutions strategy is to identify mosquito breeding grounds and eliminate larvae at the source. UPL SAS is also soon introducing unique green chemistry molecules, approved by the WHO and safe for human health and potable water – for the first time in India. These larvicides are used in stored water sources like tanks, ponds, wells, and in flowing water bodies, both at homes and public places. By controlling mosquito populations at the larval stage, UPL SAS aims to significantly reduce the risk of vector-borne diseases like dengue and malaria.”
The cold fogging machines offered by UPL SAS are lightweight, energy-efficient, easy to operate, and designed to minimize air pollution while effectively targeting mosquito breeding areas. These interventions are powered by formulations approved by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP), ensuring safety for humans, animals, and aquatic ecosystems.
