the Supreme Court has repeatedly criticised Ramdev for not complying with its directives in an ongoing case to stop misleading advertisements
The Uttarakhand government has suspended manufacturing licenses for 14 products of Baba Ramdev’s Divya Yoga Pharmacy and Patanjali, citing misleading advertisements, sources said on Monday.
This action comes amid growing scrutiny over allegations of false claims regarding traditional Ayurvedic medicines sold by Yoga Guru Ramdev. The move follows escalating legal challenges facing Ramdev’s enterprises amid concerns over questionable advertising practices.
The Supreme Court repeatedly criticised Ramdev for not complying with its directives in an ongoing case to stop misleading advertisements of some of his traditional ayurvedic medicines. The manufacturing permits of Ramdev’s companies were suspended in an April 15 order by the drug regulator of traditional medicines in Uttarakhand.
The case against Ramdev in the country’s apex court relates to the Indian Medical Association’s allegations that his firm, Patanjali, continued publishing misleading ads despite a court directive to stop them.
Ramdev has said his actions were a lapse and his company has taken out newspaper ads apologising to the public. In recent weeks, he has appeared before judges at the top court dressed to ask forgiveness, but the judges have so far not accepted his apology. The judges are considering whether to press contempt charges against Ramdev or not.
