Ramdev News: Dr. R V Asokan, president of the Indian Medical Association (IMA), criticized Baba Ramdev for claiming he could cure COVID-19 and disparaging modern medicine as "stupid and bankrupt." Asokan stated that Ramdev s statements led people to believe him due to his high profile, which was unfortunate. The IMA s comments come ahead of a Supreme Court hearing regarding Ramdev s misleading advertisements. Asokan expressed disappointment with the court s criticism of the IMA and private doctors, saying it demoralized them.
