Denying any relief to altogether 61 practitioners of alternative medicine, the Madras High Court recently clarified that unqualified persons cannot claim any right to practice alternate medicines as its result can be disastrous. With this, the bench ordered the State to take action against unrecognised medical practitioners and institutes.

"The writ petitioners herein are neither holding any valid medical decree nor their names are enrolled as medical practitioners in the Tamil Nadu Medical Council. Thus, they are not entitled to practice alternate medicine or any other practice in the medical field. Thus, the petitioners have not established any acceptable ground for the purpose of considering the relief," observed the bench of Justice SM Subramaniam.
