These days Ramdev is in news not for his Yoga but for his Patanjali products. Both for good products and also some alleged wrong claims. Ramdev claims he never makes false claims.<\/p>\n
Patanjali Ayurveda, the FMCG venture promoted by yoga guru Ramdev, threatened to file a suit against the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI), which has issued 27 notices this year to the company for what it calls violation of advertising code of conduct.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe would file a suit against ASCI. We would file the case in the court very soon. We are discussing the possibilities and would take action on this issue very soon,\u201d he said here at a press conference while describing these notices as \u201clove letters\u201d from ASCI.<\/p>\n
However, he left the venue when posed with questions on certification of his toothpaste range, under brand name Dant Kanti.Questioning the authority and juristdion of ASCI, the yoga guru said it is a body \u201cformed by MNCs and they are spreading wrong messages about advertisements by Patanjali.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is an illegal organisation and I would write a letter to the government of India in this regard,\u201d he said, adding that ASCI \u201cis not a constitutional authority but a company only, which has advising powers to its members.\u201d\u201cThey are sending love letters to us. This issue has even been raised in Parliament also.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said further that various high courts in their orders have ruled that ASCI has no constitutional authority.In May, ASCI upheld 10 complaints against Patanjali Ayurved for products such as Jeera Biscuit, Kacchi Ghani mustard oil, Kesh Kanti and Dant Kanti, among others.<\/p>\n
The advertising regulator had earlier upheld six cases each against Patanjali in March and April of 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
