Homeopathic practitioner Jayaprasad filed a petition for a writ of mandamus. He contended that the Kerala State Health Department was intimidated to take action against him under the Disaster Management Act if he treats Covid 19 patients, which was a violation of his right under Article 19(1)(g).
The Kerala High Court ruled that qualified homeopathic doctors can prescribe immunity booster medicines for Covid-19 patients as well as preventive medicines. Moreover, it was held that there is no prohibition imposed by the Government of India on Homoeopathy for the treatment of patients in its AYUSH recommendations. AYUSH is the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga, Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, Sowa-Rigpa, and Homoeopathy is purposed with developing education, research, and propagation of indigenous alternative medicine systems in India.
The State Medical Protocol issued by the Centre invoking the provisions of the Disaster Management Act directing that Covid-19 affected persons should only be treated by the Government and those hospitals authorized by the Government. The petition contended that nothing was prohibiting qualified medical AYUSH practitioners to prescribe an immunity booster mixture or tablets suggested by the Ministry of AYUSH, which also includes homeopathy practitioners.
This came after the petitioner highlighted that the Apex Court has upheld the right of Homoeopathic Practitioners to treat Covid-19 patients. Justice N Nagaresh ruled in favor of allopathic medical practitioners deciding that a qualified homeopathic physician can dispense preventive and prophylactic homeopathic medicines for Covid-19. It was also held that they are permitted to prescribe add-on medicines authorized by the Guidelines with the approval of the concerned authorities and the consent of the patient/guardian. The advertisements of homeopathic treatment for Covid are prohibited.

Consequently, this Court reveals it healthy to supply an intervening time injunction in favor of the plaintiff and opposition to the defendants in phrases of prayer (a) of the software beneath neath Order XXXIX Rules 1 and a couple of CPC.”. The court ordered.
Moreover, the Court additionally directed Twitter, Facebook, and Telegram to put off or take down the defamatory posts/articles/all content material bearing on the News Channel and block the URLs/internet hyperlinks as relied upon with the aid of using it.

During that period of time, Ranaās caste certificate attested her as āMochiā which is one of the the Schedule Caste communities, which thus made her eligible to contest from the Amravati constituency.

A petition was filed by Anand Rao Adsul, a former MP, in the Bombay HC against Rana alleging that she had filed a fraudulent and forged certificate.

The court has further ordered her to pay Rs. 2 lakh, imposed on her as a fine to the Maharashtra Legal Services Authority within a 2 week period.

The proposition for this edition has been drafted by the prestigious law firm, Economic Laws Practice.
About the Theme
International investment has become a medium to reach growth and is a vital device to be used as a business strategy. Therefore, it becomes extremely important to understand the underlying issues and build up good knowledge around this topic because it leads to the expansion of a Firmās financial and management resources.
The regulations governing international investments are relatively new and thus, require the identification of various practical aspects which can later become an issue under the same. This is because such transactions come with the innate threat of jeopardizing the national security of a state. Hence, with the said theme, the objective is to put an effort in order to navigate across a range of complex issues. Also, to reflect over the different laws depending on the facts and scope present.
