105 IMA-Bihar units to file cases against Ramdev

PATNA: The Bihar branch of Indian Medical Association (IMA) on Sunday directed all its 105 units spread over the 38 districts to file separate cases against yoga guru Ramdev for his alleged comments against the modern medicine and its line of treatment.
In Patna, there are 13 branches of IMA.
The decision for filing separate cases was taken at a meeting chaired by acting president Dr Ajay Kumar following a call from the IMA.
The national president-elect of the IMA, Dr Sahjanand Prasad Singh, was also present in the meeting.
He said similar cases were being lodged in other states of the country.
The IMA’s national body has also started chemical examination of Coronil in a government lab in New Delhi.
It is an Ayurvedic medicine promoted by Ramdev as immunity booster and effective against respiratory problems and fever caused by bacteria or virus.
“The Covid-19 pandemic came as a big challenge for the medical system of the world and all countries fought with most of the common measures, medicines and line of treatment.
India did its best and also became the leader in developing the vaccines and launching the immunisation drive,” Dr Sahjanand said.
He, however, lamented that Ramdev’s derogatory tone and sceptical remarks against allopathic treatment, oxygen administration to severe Covid patients and even the vaccines being administered to protect people created an environment of doubt and suspicion in the society at a time when the medical fraternity was rendering tireless services and many of them and their kin died.
“Ramdev should set up a Covid hospital, like many private hospitals, and help people in trying times instead of raising doubts on modern medicine,” Dr Sahjanand said.
IMA Bihar secretary Dr Sunil Kumar said the state branch would lodge a case within a few days and all other units would do the same soon.
A grant of Rs10 lakh from the IMA’s national Covid Martyrs Fund was presented by Dr Sahjanand to Sugandhi Devi, wife of Dr Anil Kumar Singh of Muzaffarpur, who died of the Covid recently.
The meeting also urged the state government to make provisions for appointing all the unemployed doctors by relaxing some of its conditions for building up a better healthcare system.
Dr Sunil also expressed condolences over the death of 151 doctors in Bihar due to the Covid infections.
