Crosspathy allowed in Tamil Nadu, High Court quashes criminal proceedings against Homeopathy doctor
In a major decision relating to the issue of crosspathy, in particular, the practice of Allopathy by practitioners of Indian Systems of Medicine, the Tamil Nadu High Court recently quashed criminal proceedings against a Homeopathy doctor for practicing Allopathy Medicine.
In doing so, the HC bench comprising of Justice RMT. Teeka Raman laid reference on an order issued by the State Health Department back in 2010, where it had been mentioned that "the institutionally qualified Practitioners of Ayurveda, Sidddha and Unani, who are registered in the Tamil Nadu Board of Indian Medicine, Chennai are eligible to practice in the respective system with Allopathy based on the training and teaching they had in the Course. But they cannot exclusively do the practice in Allopathy Medicine."
