The BJP government in Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday ordered medicine dealers not to supply Ramdev's controversial 'Putrajeevak Beej' drug until its name is changed, according to reports.



Ramdev's 'Putrajeevak' medicine was banned in Madhya Pradesh. PTI



The controversy surrounding the drug began when a demand to ban a purported ayurveda product by yoga guru Ramdev's Divya Pharmacy that promises a male child was made in Rajya Sabha on Thursday, with Opposition members terming it as illegal and unconstitutional and seeking stringent action against the manufacturers.



When the House had met on Thursday, KC Tyagi (JD-U) had showed a packet called 'Putrajeevak Beej', which he claimed to have bought from Divya Pharmacy that promised the delivery of a male child.



Without naming the yoga guru, he had asked "if the Government of India under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi approves of this."



Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan had also opposed the sale of the drug.



A day later, on Friday, Ramdev, in a press conference, had claimed that the drug had nothing to do with sex determination of a child before birth and alleged that a political controversy was being brewed from in order to defame Prime Minister Narendra Modi.



"What does the Putrajeevak medicine have to do with PM Modi and BJP?" he had said.



"Using a 'fakir' like me, they are trying to defame the 'wazir' Prime Minister Modi," Ramdev had said. "In the Parliament, they should raise issues of black money, corruption and earthquake relief... Instead, they focus on such a non-issue."

[...]

While it's very likely traitors internal to BJP - and not just opponents outside - are aiming at Modi via Ramdev's innocent herb (with an innocent name*), wish Ramdev wouldn't use islamic words like vizier/wazir and fakir.

Ramdev is not a fakir. Fakir is not the "English" or "Hindustani" translation for yogi. He should just use the Hindoo words since there are no equivalents in islamised and anglicised languages.



* "putra" is of course also used generally for 'children', no different from how "mankind" is not all male, else why doesn't anyone coplain about

Baba Ramdev slams those critical of 'Divya Putrajeevak seed', refuses to change its name

India Friday, May 1, 2015 - 14:31



Yoga guru Baba Ramdev slammed those who had been critical of a medicine sold by his organization in a press conference on Friday. The issue had been taken up by several members in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday.



According to a Zee News report, Ramdev, while addressing the media said that the “Divya Putrajeevak Seed” sold by Divya Pharmacy was to help a childless couple conceive and not for determining the sex of the child.



Further clarifying, Ramdev reportedly added that the botanical name of the medicine was “Putranjiva roxburghii” and it was referred to as “putrajeevak” in Hindi, Gujarati, Kannada, Bengali, Telugu and Marathi. Ramdev took a jibe at those who were critical of the medicine saying that they had no knowledge of ayurveda.



The yoga guru also refused to change the name of the medicine saying that he would have to change the names of all his medicines then as they were derived from botanical names. He also claimed that people were out to tarnish his image in order to malign the Prime Minister. “Through me, a fakir, they are trying to malign Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” an NDTV report quotes him as saying.



[...]

I do have to ask why the BJP in Madhya Pradesh has to immediately ban the item for its name being objectionable as per Only The Illiterates. Illiteracy isn't a crime, but not waiting for a response from those who do know words and their actual meanings is criminal.

New Delhi: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Friday slammed his critics for claiming that 'Divya Putrajeevak Seed', sold by Divya Pharmacy, guarantees a male child.



Addressing a press conference, Baba Ramdev said that people who are making the allegations have no knowledge of ayurveda.

Ramdev's statement comes a day after the Rajya Sabha witnessed uproar over much-publicised infertility medicine 'Divya Putrajeevak Seed'.



Talking to mediapersons, the yoga guru said the botanical name of 'Divya Putrajeevak Seed' is ‘Putranjiva roxburghii’ and it is called ‘putrajeevak’ in Hindi, Gujarati, Kannada, Marathi, Telugu, and Bengali.



Further clarifying on the matter, Ramdev said the medicine helps a childless couple conceive and has nothing to do with sex determination of a child before birth. The yoga guru also refused to change the name of the medicine.

(Q: why is one 'Roxburgh' credited too in the botanical name of something already known to Ayurveda? Must be yet another western freeloader off Hindoo science: the first western person to "discover/retread" Chinese Taoist and Indian Hindoo discoveries and achievements is always credited as a "first". Where "first" merely means the first western person to plagiarise the non-western heathen knowledge for the west and then patent it etc. See for example this post in the Sanatana Dharma thread for the recent news of a Harvard rip-off from Pranayama/yoga. He pretends to be a first too, even as he hints at its total plagiarism and theft from yoga, rebranded as mere mimicry, since it sounds less criminal than plagiarism and theft.)



Hitting back at the people making the accusations, the saffron-robed Ramdev claimed that people are trying to malign his image in order to defame Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Ramdev says 'Divya Putrajeevak Seed' doesn't guarantee a male child



Ramdev said in order to remove all misconceptions regarding the medicine, his pharmacy will add a disclaimer saying that it has nothing do with a birth of a male child.



The yoga guru sought apology from Janata Dal (United) leader KC Tyagi, who raised the issue in Rajya Sabha on Thursday.



Ramdev also took the opportunity to take a dig at Rajya Sabha member Jaya Bachchan, saying that the Bollywood actress should visit Patanjali and see what kind of work is being done.



“I have given yoga lessons to her husband Amitabh Bachchan and she should ask him whether I taught him anything wrong,” Ramdev added.

(Ramdev should stop feeding the enemies. Let Amitabh Bachchan do some Yoga spin-off/rip-off, like pilates or christian 'praise moves'. That way maybe the BSP pushers won't live long enough to reproduce?)



The yoga guru emphasised on raking issues like black money, social injustice, help for Nepal earthquake victims rather than those which create unwanted controversies.



Meanwhile, Tyagi today said if Ramdev is willing to add a disclaimer then its proved that he was right in putting forth such allegations.



(No no. Tyagi is illiterate AND lacking in common-sense. I'm surprised he survived this long. I hope he hasn't been reproducing, that would be irresponsible to the planet and humanity.

No, rather, what the disclaimer proves is that Ramdev is too kind in that he wants to help out the deeply alienated illiterates who - like Tyagi - may willfully misconstrue their native languages because of their illiteracy in them and 0 knowledge of Indian herbal nomenclature (I have 0 knowledge of that last too, but at least I didn't decide to assume the worst of Ramdev, who famously adopted all the orphans of Nepal, instead of only the male ones. <= In case anyone needed proof that Ramdev doesn't discriminate between genders.)

Unlike Ramdev, who was unnecessarily [undeservedly] kind to the illiterate sniping mercenaries like Tyagi, I would Never add a disclaimer. That way, the progressive subverted illiterates - who should be discouraged from reproducing and passing on their countless moronisms - won't buy it then, while Hindoos who have use for it will know to procure it, because they would know the word putra is here used in its general sense (and maybe they even know the remedy is named after the botanical name of an active herb).)



Tyagi had alleged that the medicine guarantees a male child and demanded a probe against Divya Pharmacy.



Without naming the yoga guru, the JD (U) leader had asked "if the Government of India under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi approves of this."



Amid protests from treasury benches, Jaya Bachchan (Samajwadi Party) took the packet and gave it to Health Minister JP Nadda.



Several Opposition members joined in condemning sale of such products and demanded action.



With Opposition members pressing for stringent action, Nadda said the issue is related to the Department of Aayush. "The Government will look into it and proper action will be taken."



Nadda said the issue was very serious and he has just been given a packet of the product.



"Government is very serious on sex-ratio," he said, adding that the Prime Minister was personally monitoring the 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padao' campaign.



In January, Modi launched a nationwide campaign aimed at reversing the skewed gender ratio, saying placing more importance on sons was "a psychological illness of the entire country".



According to the 2011 census, the nation recorded just 914 female births for every 1,000 male births owing to a preference for sons who are seen as breadwinners in a highly patriarchal society.

Was it the BBC - some international outlet anyway - turned it into an opportunity for an all out attack on Hindoo heathenism via Ramdev. Linking it to the "tendency to infanticide" and "gender-based infanticide" of Indians etc etc. Of course Beeb/whoever will not retract their stupidity or publish Ramdev's rebuttal of their christolying. It's just another case of a deliberate character-assassination hit-and-run.
