Supreme Court to hear Patanjali misleading ads case shortly, Ramdev present
The Supreme Court will on Tuesday hear the contempt case against Patanjali Ayurved, Baba Ramdev and the company’s managing director Acharya Balkrishna in connection with the misleading advertisements of Patanjali’s medicinal products.
A two-judge bench comprising Justices Hima Kohli and Ahsanuddin Amanullah will preside over the hearing today.
Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna have been ordered to be present in court.
On April 10, the Supreme Court dismissed Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna’s “unconditional apology”, saying their actions were “wilful, deliberate and repeated violations” of the top court’s orders.
The petition against Patanjali Ayurved has been filed by the Indian Medical Association (IMA).
During the hearing on April 10, the same bench of Justices Kohli and Amanullah came down heavily on Patanjali Ayurved and criticised it for “taking contempt of court proceedings lightly”. The court had said that it was “not satisfied with anything said in the affidavit”.
The top court also blasted the Uttarakhand government for providing a licence for Patanjali products and asked the state’s licensing authority, “Do you have the guts to do what you are doing? You are acting as a post office.”
“We have strong objection to use of word ‘bonafide’ for officers. We are not going to take lightly. We will rip you apart,” Justice Amanullah said.
