Abstract
Global antibiotic consumption and antimicrobial resistance in human and livestock are increasing tremendously. Several factors are involved in developing antimicrobial resistance by using different mechanisms by the pathogens. In the present scenario, food safety, nutritional security, inadequate sanitary facilities and antimicrobial resistance in various pathogens particularly ESBL-producing E. coli (including several ESBL genotypes), NDM and MRSA in human beings and animals are the few challenges. If AMR is not addressed well in time, it may cause havoc in the future. Limited reports are available on the detection of AMR pathogens from food-producing animals and their products from India. Therefore, control/regulations over the counter sale of antimicrobials, development of SOP/standard treatment guidelines for common infectious diseases, awareness, personal hygiene and sanitation, improving immunization coverage; rapid outbreak response, and continuous surveillance of AMR pathogens for monitoring resistance in human, animals and aquaculture is must.
