Yoga guru Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali Ayurveda Ltd is in a legal soup. In a latest update, the company has stopped the sale of 14 of his products. This has transpired after Uttarakhand suspended its manufacturing licenses with immediate effect.
It notified the Supreme Court that it had directed 5,606 franchise outlets to remove these items from sale.
On May 14, the court reserved its decision on the contempt notice issued to Ramdev, his associate Balkrishna, and Patanjali Ayurved Ltd in relation to the misleading advertisements case.
