Supreme Court Dismisses Contempt Charges Against Ramdev
News summary

The Supreme Court of India has closed contempt proceedings against yoga guru Ramdev and his associate Balkrishna in a case related to misleading advertisements for Patanjali products. While the court accepted their apologies, it issued a stern warning that any future violations will lead to severe penalties. This decision follows Patanjali's controversial promotion of its product Coronil as a cure for Covid-19, which the Indian Medical Association condemned as a 'blatant lie'. The court also criticized the Uttarakhand State Licensing Authority for its delayed response to Patanjali's misconduct, calling into question its commitment to public health. Despite the closure of the case, the Supreme Court emphasized the need for genuine compliance with its orders moving forward. The court's actions reflect broader concerns about the integrity of health claims during the pandemic and the need for accountability in advertising.
