HC suspends courses on electro homoeopathy in Punjab

The petitioner had averred that electro homoeopathy is not a recognised system of medicine and had not gained the recognition from the Government of India.

In the petition that came up for resumed hearing on Wednesday, the High Court made it clear that any institute commits fraud, the Punjab Police will be at liberty to lodge an FIR and carry out investigations. No arrest will, however, be made without the prior permission of the court.

While the petitioner has submitted that these institutes are duping people by imparting courses in electro homoeopathy, the Association of Electro-Homoeopathy maintains that though the technique has not been recognised, the institutes are not committing any fraud and have not duped any person. The case has been adjourned till January 28.
