The Delhi High Court on July 3 directed Patanjali to withdraw advertisements that allegedly disparage Dabur’s chyawanprash.

The interim order was passed by Justice Mini Pushkarna in response to a lawsuit filed by Dabur accusing Patanjali of falsely misleading consumers about the quality of its chyawanprash. Representing Dabur, Senior Advocate Sandeep Sethi argued that Patanjali falsely claims that their Chyawanprash is made with 51 herbs instead of the real number of 47 herbs, along with placing it as inferior and ordinary.

Until further proceedings, the court has barred Patanjali from publishing or broadcasting any such advertisements.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
