The Indian Medical Association (IMA) has launched a blistering attack against Yoga Guru and FMCG, Ayurveda businessman Baba Ramdev for comments he allegedly made against modern medicine.
The IMA in a statement urged Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan to either accept the accusation made by Ramdev and dissolve modern medical facilities or book and prosecute Yoga Guru under the Epidemic Diseases Act.
The development comes after a video of Ramdev saying that allopathy is stupid science.
What Ramdev said
In a video that has been going viral on the internet, Baba Ram Dev said, “it is shocking that Remdesvir failed, steroids failed and now plasma therapy has also been banned.”
He also said, “the medicines doctors are giving patients for getting the fever down such as Fabiflu is not doing any good to them.”
“We have lost lakhs of people due to allopathic medicines and not due to shortage of oxygen,” he went on to claim.
Alleging that Ramdev’s comments challenge the wisdom and integrity of the Drug Controller General of India (DGCI) and the Union Health Ministry, the IMA said if action is not taken against Ramdev then the medical body will take legal action against him.
