June 1st as black day as protest against Ramdevs remarks doctors association.

New Delhi, 1 June. Doctors’ association has given a call for nationwide protest against the remarks made by yoga guru Baba Ramdev. The Federation of resident doctors’ association (FORDA) issued a release in which it said that June 1 will be observed as ‘Black Day’. The call has been given to condemn the “derogatory and distasteful statements” made by Baba Ramdev, FORDA said. It added that patient care will not be hampered by the day-long protest. The India Medical Association (IMA) strongly objected to Ramdev’s statement, made last week, and demanded action against him. “It is stated that the accused being a businessman, in order to take advantage of the present situation and his large public following, is wilfully and deliberately advancing dishonest representations… about allopathy and modern medicine… and to swindle them into parting with their monies by taking Swami Ramdev’s unapproved and dubious drugs,” the IMA said in a 14-page complaint sent to the Centre.
