The
Indian Medical Association will not allow ayurveda and AYUSH doctors to
practice allopathy, said Indian Medical Association (IMA) president Dr H
L Krishne Gowda.
He claimed ayurveda practitioners had sought permission to prescribe allopathic medicines during emergency cases.
The
members of IMA stressed that Section 15 of 1956 Act (Indian Medical
Council Act) and section 17 of 1970 Act, says, “A professional maybe
held liable for negligence on the ground that he did not possess the
requisite skill which he professes to have. Thus, a doctor who has
qualification in ayurveda, unani or homeopathy will be liable if he
prescribes allopathic treatment.”
The SC defined a quack as, “A quack is a person who doesn’t have knowledge of a particular system of medicine, but practices that system.” The IMA said the government should not allow any such cross practice. source:http://newindianexpress.com/cities/bangalore/article589715.ece
