Dr J A Jayalal, National President, IMA, in an interview with Outlook, alleges that Ramdev’s claim is a bunch of lies and the presence of a Health Minister in such a function will send a wrong message in society.

Here’s all about the row over Coronil, and the “WHO certification scheme” cited by Patanjali

The Ministry of Ayush has recognised Coronil Tablet as a medicine for 'supporting measure in Covid-19,' said officials

Besides Patanjali, companies like Jio, Amazon, the Tata group, Dream11, Unacademy and Byjus have reportedly expressed their desire to bid for the IPL sponsorship rights

Ramdev said in a press conference that Patanjali had procured a licence for the medicines but did not use the word "treatment" for their use.

'We said that we had made medicines and used them in clinical controlled trials which cured corona patients. There is no confusion in it,' Patanjali's CEO said.

The Rajasthan government has clarified that the drug cannot be not used as a medicine in the state without the permission of the Ministry of AYUSH.

The Licence Officer of Ayurved department said he will issue Patanjali a notice asking how they got permission to make the kit that claims to treat Coronavirus.

The Minister also said that AYUSH Ministry will clear its stance on Patanjali's 'Coronil and Swasari', claimed to cure Coronavirus, after reviewing the report sent by it.

The firm claimed that their two Ayurved-based medicines have shown 100 per cent favourable results during clinical trials on COVID-19 infected patients.
