Patanjali case: Supreme Court says IMA should also put its house in order; address unethical practices in modern medicine

The Bench also took note of an intervention application seeking imposition of costs on the IMA. "There is an intervention which wants us to impose ₹1,000 crores on IMA as costs for filing this complaint. "I have nothing to do with this," Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, who was appearing for Patanjali, replied. "We are very curious about the timing of the application.. Looks like an interloper and not an intervention," the Court observed while orally indicating that it was inclined to impose costs on the applicant. All the same, the Court indicated that it would also look into certain allegations against the IMA regarding unnecessary medical prescriptions.
