Take action under sedition charges against Ramdev: IMA writes to PM Modi

IMA in a letter to PM Modi, "Misinformation campaign on vaccination by Patanjali owner Ramdev should be stopped. In a video, he claimed that 10,000 doctors & lakhs of people have died despite taking both doses of vaccine. Action under sedition charges should be taken against him."

As yoga guru, Ramdev continues to stoke controversy with his comments about allopathic medicines and Covid, the head of his Patanjali Ayurveda's dairy business has died due to Covid-related complications.

Sunil Bansal, 57, contracted Covid and breathed his last on May 19 in Rajasthan.

Ramdev had sparked an uproar after purportedly calling allopathy a "stupid science". This has led the Indian Medical Association (IMA) to demand that the Union Health Ministry take action against him, but Patanjali denied the allegations against him, saying that he was only reading a "forwarded WhatsApp message".
