Point- Marijuana is illegal in India.
I have been telling you, time and again, that the Ministry of Ayush is the end of public health in India. A disgusting farce.
Ayurveda practitioners were pseudoscience peddlers. Now they are have a future also as drug peddlers.
Great career choice after BAMS degree. Do parents want their children to become these "doctors"?
Crazy excerpts:
"In under a minute, over a call, the ayurvedic doctor, who gave only his first name, prescribed not an over-the-counter medicine, but cannabis gummies, chewable candies infused with cannabis."
"Marketed as ayurvedic medicine and used by youth to get a ‘high’, cannabis products are now a booming business built on loopholes the government wrote into law."
"In India, cannabis prescribed for medical purposes falls under a system overseen by the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (Ayush), which calls it Vijaya."
Ayurvedic "doctors" could prescribe cannabis products for medical use with no cap on psychotropic THC content in it, and companies could sell them as ayurvedic medicine.
The potency of cannabis sold is much higher than what is permitted in the USA. It sells in a range from Rs 900 to Rs 14,000.

On my way to the ground in Delhi and my heart sank when I saw people feeding a whole army of pigeons. Doctors have been shouting from the rooftops about the dangers of inhaling pigeon droppings and the severe lung disease it could lead to. Please, let us stop feeding pigeons.
And how many actually get reported? This is the truth behind the seemingly small number of law and order cases in india. What we see is the tip of the iceberg

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.
@championswimmer I remember in 2005 when in Atlanta, one of the team members who was a software engineer was actually 45+ with ~10 years experience. And he could have easily been an architect. He didn't want to be anything else because he just loved coding.
The amount of cancer patients seen by me in opd today at government hospital in Mumbai India 🇮🇳. 140 pts .
I am doing this for free of cost ,( I don't take any honorarium
for this ) , twice a week , for last 11 years (since March 2013 )
All get free cancer treatment With first line and second line chemotherapy . Some do get targeted drugs like trastuzumab and bevacizumab for free. This is positive impact of government schemes Iike Ayushman Bharat and MPAJY @PMOIndia@Dev_Fadnavis
All these are very poor patients . We can not give state of the art care but With what ever we can give , some of them do get cured and lot of them have good disease control.
This is my small contribution to the society from which I come and became medical oncologist.
I am sure lots of oncologist are doing much more impacful work than this. And I appreciate and admire all of them .
If all of us decide to give something back to society, in which ever manner , small or big , probably we can make a difference 🙂.
Let's continue to inspire and get inspired.
@championswimmer It's innovation supported by lawlessness, poverty and big time economic disparity. Without those pillars this innovation would fall flatter than a deck of cards

This was much needed and we all knew this even though rabid anti-reservationists claimed otherwise. More than 80% faculties in IIT Bhubaneswar are from general category. And we can assume same for most IITs.
