Give death penalty if we are found spreading falsehood: Ramdev

Thursday 23 November 2023 | PNS | DEHRADUN

Patanjali Ayurved co-founder and Yoga guru Swami Ramdev said the death penalty should be given if Patanjali is found to be spreading falsehood. A day after the Supreme Court cautioned Patanjali Ayurved against making “false” and “misleading” claims in advertisements about its Ayurvedic medicines being able to cure various ailments, Ramdev alleged that the medical and pharmaceutical mafia is spreading propaganda against Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy.

Addressing the media on Wednesday, he said that the Supreme Court decision had not been received but propaganda was already being spread by vested interests. “We respect the Supreme Court and the law of the land but the medical and pharmaceutical mafia is against Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy. They state there is no treatment in the synthetic world for conditions like BP, diabetes, thyroid imbalance, liver and kidney degeneration.

We at Patanjali have used Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy to cure patients of these conditions and even cancer. We have cured patients suffering from bone, breast and blood cancer. Patanjali has all scientific, clinical and real-world evidence along with documentation and research papers published in various international journals. We have followed all scientific protocol and have collected evidence to show that such ailments can be cured. If needed, I am ready to appear in the Supreme Court with all documentation, evidence and a number of patients who have been successfully cured of various ailments using Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy. We also respect allopathy when it comes to surgery, emergency treatment and life saving medicines but curing various diseases and sustainable health is possible through integration of Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy. We are not lying and we have all the documentary, scientific and real world evidence to prove it,” he reiterated.

Ramdev also introduced various individuals who he claimed had been cured at Patanjali of type-I diabetes, complete vision loss and other lifestyle disorders and ailments using Yoga, Ayurveda and naturopathy.

Acharya Balkrishna said, “We are addressing the media to counter the propaganda being spread through the media. The court proceedings will be pursued in the legal manner. The decision of the Supreme Court has not yet come but propaganda is already being spread. The AYUSH ministry and various institutions are doing good work in Ayurveda, naturopathy and Yoga but their work doesn’t appear to be adequate to influence the global community. We are doing such work and hence are being targeted by vested interests. We do not oppose allopathy but are against the fraud being perpetrated in its name.”
