Delhi: Armed with fresh ammunition in the form of a letter purportedly
written by the Joint Secretary of the Union Health Ministry, CPIM leader
Brinda Karat today attacked Baba Ramdev of violating licensing and labelling
provisions. Referring to the analysis reports of the samples she said
, "prima facie reveal a violation of licensing and labelling provisions
of the Indian Drugs and Cosmetics Act," and demanded strict action be
taken against him. She further added," we came to know in June-July
last year that herbal ayurvedic medicines prepared by Divya Yog Pharmacy,
owned by Ramdev, contained animal material and human bones. We then
handed over the medicine samples to Department of Ayush and now they
have confirmed our apprehension," This is not the first time that such
allegations were made against Ramdev. A few months earlier, Karat had
accused him of "breaching the trust of common people in the arclights
of growing media popularity." On that occasion Ramdev had opposed the
allegations tooth and nail. Today too was no different as he called
a press conference and refuted the allegations. Karat demanded that
the Uttaranchal Chief minister, ND Tiwari should take swift and strict
action against Baba Ramdev.
