The Indian government has taken several measures to control the sale of spurious medicine in the country:

• The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) has issued stringent guidelines for drug manufacturers and sellers to prevent the production and sale of counterfeit drugs.
• The government has set up a Drug Authentication and Verification Application (DAVA) to enable consumers to check the authenticity of medicines before purchasing them.
• Authorities have partnered with pharmaceutical companies and stakeholders to conduct regular raids and crack down on manufacturers and sellers of counterfeit medicines.
• The government has also set up a nation-wide online platform called SUGAM to monitor and regulate the supply chain of medicines in the market.
• The drug regulatory authority in India, CDSCO, has been strengthened with an increase in the number of inspectors and equipment to enable them to detect counterfeit medicines more effectively.

These measures taken by the government have helped to reduce the sale of spurious medicine in India and improve the accessibility of authentic medicines for the citizens.
