‘Govt passed the buck to U’khand on Patanjali ads’
The New Indian Express
|May 15, 2024
IT wasn't just the Uttarakhand authorities, the Ayush Ministry, and the Health Ministry that failed to take any action against Yoga Guru Ramdev's Patanjali Ayurved for repeatedly violating an act dealing with misleading advertisements of Ayush products, but also the Consumer Protection Authority, which, despite having more powers, merely forwarded the RTI complaints to other regulatory bodies for action under weaker laws.

Kerala-based KV Babu, who has been persistently pursuing misleading advertisements issued by Ramdev for Ayush products claiming cures for various conditions from blood pressure and diabetes to liver ailments, said the only time the CCPA took action was in 2022.
The CCPA, under the Consumer Affairs Ministry, informed him two years ago that they had issued a notice to Divya Pharmacy and Patanjali Wellness and forwarded the complaint to the Ayush Ministry.
