Conmen who spread all kinds of quackery and sermonize gullible followers to discard western medicine
But when their own lives are in danger, they run to a modern hospital &/or take help from qualified doctors!
Good morning.
The weekend witnessed a massive hate campaign directed against me by the pseudoscientific Ayurveda community as well as large account Indian right-wing influencers including "fellow doctor colleagues."
They doxed my work place, threw religious slurs at me, morphed my images, made vulgar racist comments, defamed my family, called us organ traffickers, and named my public health awareness efforts "rabid."
By doing that, they have exposed themselves more. My work and it's importance have become even more valuable.
I appreciate and thank my follower-friends (you know who you are🫶) and doctor colleagues (you know who you are 🫶) here on Twitter for supporting me and helping my voice echo longer and stronger. The public support against pseudoscientific alternative medicine was even stronger and it gladdened me.
ONE event, and now everyone knows how dangerous alternative medicine such as Ayurveda and Homeopathy are. Everyone knows how the practitioners and their supporters are the real rabid cultists.
Why do I strongly oppose Ayurveda and Homeopathy and such alternative medicine practices? Because it has real world outcomes.
Shown in the image below are the various alternative medicines, herbal and dietary supplements that many people took because of advertisements, promotions on anecdotes and health misinformation on social media. They came to me with severe liver injury and some in liver failure for treatments. My team painstakingly retrieved these products from them. Sadly and to my terrible sorrow, most of these patients did not make it. They are survived by their young children or spouses, or aging parents only.
You think your massive hate campaign will deter me? It only makes me stronger. Keep 'em coming. You have no idea of the gargantuan beast you have created with so much hate. I'll keep educating people and public as long as I can, as much as I can. Jai Hind.
As Imphal remains shut because some in the valley want to protect people who orchestrated murders, arson and what not, zero network in most of Tamenglong for weeks. Parts of this region have not seen electricity in more than a month. Let's not lie, Manipur's priorities are clear
You can’t even get from one part of Manipur to another. Bangladesh is unfriendly and Myanmar is in turmoil. The rhetoric should have some connection with reality.
The Caravan contributor Greeshma Kuthar (@jeegujja) has won the 2025 Danish Siddiqui Journalism Award (@DSFAsiaOrg), in the print category, for the investigative report “Saviour Complex: Why the Biren Singh government gives a free hand to Arambai Tenggol.”
Greeshma’s award recognised her on-the-ground reporting from Manipur, where she uncovered how the Meitei militia group Arambai Tenggol operated with impunity amid the ethnic violence in Manipur. In her April 2024 story, she detailed how the chief minister, N Biren Singh, enabled the group’s rise by shielding it from accountability, and how state forces stood by—or actively collaborated—as the militia looted police armouries, conducted targeted attacks, and enforced vigilante justice. Her reportage, drawn from extensive fieldwork and testimonies from eyewitnesses, not only documented the human toll of the violence but also exposed the state’s complicity in empowering
a militia accused of ethnic cleansing.
Please don't drink your urine (or others) because a Bollywood actor says so.
There is no scientific evidence to support the idea that drinking urine provides any health benefits.
In fact, consuming urine can be harmful, potentially introducing bacteria, toxins, and other harmful substances into the bloodstream.
Your kidneys work very hard to remove toxic stuff out of your body through urine. Don't insult it by putting it back in.
Urine is NOT sterile.
Urine is a potent combination of salts and chemicals that your body is attempting to remove. These chemicals can cause significant health problems if you consume them.
Paresh Rawal is the perfect example of the Indian WhatsApp Boomer Uncle. He's saying this to stay alive in the media.
Need more be said of the need for separation? I beseech GoI to note. @PMOIndia

The Government of India must place a White Paper on recovery of looted arms and the rationale for exclusion of valley areas from AFSPA , where most arms were looted, before the nation. @PMOIndia@HMOIndia
As Lamka braces 1 of its longest nights, why is d matter allowed to simmer out of control? Immediately impose 144 CrPC. Organize army flag march. Firmly dealt wt any organised mob violence. Let d law takes its own course, bt very swiftly @Ccpur_Police@rashtrapatibhvn@DC_Ccpur
The government seeks free movement in the hills, ensuring complete security and protection for travellers from the valleys traversing the hills. However, there is no equivalent free movement from the hills to the valleys with similar safety and assurance. The hill women protestors were treated brutally and rudely, whereas the valley women protestors were handled with kid gloves. Why does this discriminatory treatment occur, seemingly provoking further violence in an already ravaged state and volatile situation?
The government must reassess its approach and evaluate where it has gone wrong. It must maintain a consistent attitude towards all citizens, distinguishing between lawbreakers and law-abiding individuals while ensuring orderly administration and justice. Wherever there is a perception of injustice, peace will evade us, and public confidence will diminish, exacerbating the situation. The government should proceed systematically rather than randomly disregarding public opinion and common sense to pursue quick results without rationale.
Administrators should refrain from adopting the roles of politicians or social workers. Their primary responsibility is facilitating communication and resolving conflicts while ensuring protection for all involved parties. They must avoid seeking visibility to gain publicity or exhibit any semblance of bias, as doing so could undermine the trust of one or both parties engaged in the dispute. Administrators' impartiality is vital for fostering an environment conducive to negotiation among all stakeholders.
