HPMOA for case against Ramdev

NURPUR, MAY 23

The HP Medical Officers Association (HPMOA) has taken a strong exception of the alleged remarks of yoga guru Ramdev against the allopathy.

Dr Pushpinder Verma, state general secretary of the HPMOA, has termed his remarks disgusting.

He urged the government to register cases of sedition and under the Epidemic Disease Act against Baba Ramdev. It was an insult to 1,030 doctors who had sacrificed their lives while discharging their duties in treating Covid patients during the ongoing pandemic in the country.

In a video that went viral in the social media yesterday, Baba Ramdev had stated that ‘Allopathy ek stupid aur diwaliya science hai’

Verma said Ramdev’s statement at this juncture, when a large number of Covid patients were battling for their lives and doctors were treating them in the dedicated Covid centres, had demoralised the frontline warriors.

He dared the Baba to treat critical Covid patients, who were battling for life in the hospitals, with his Patanjali’s Coronil tablets, if he had faith in his treatment.
