AURANGABAD: Homeopathy doctors in the city on Tuesday joined the three-day statewide protest by observing bandh to press for their various demands. The hunger strike began on Monday in Nagpur and is led by Arun Bhasme, Rajanitai Indulkar, S T Gosavi and other members of Homeopathic Doctors Anyay Nivaran Sangharsh Samiti ( HDANSS) to raise voice against the state government.

Anupama Pathrikar, medical director at Foster Development’s Homoeopathic Medical College, said the homoeopathic practitioners and teachers in the state have been struggling on various fronts for the last 30 years.

Among various other demands, the protesters have urged the state government to allow use of allopathic medicines by homoeopathic doctors during emergencies, involve them in public health services and provide better salaries to those working under National Rural Health Mission (NRHM), Pathrikar said.

She said the homoeopathic doctors have demanded to authorise the certificates issued by them as other fitness certificate to be submitted to the regional transport office (RTO).

The doctors have also demanded stipend for interns and postgraduate students of homoeopathy, separate directorate for homoeopathy and removal of pending cases lodged against homoeopathic doctors.

“At present, nearly 60,000 homeopathic doctors are serving the people of the state. The contribution of these doctors in health services is immense, especially in the rural areas of the state, where allopathic doctors cannot reach. We are working at the grassroots level,” she added.

mysticism still plays a large role in Hindu culture (astrology, kooky medical beliefs, etc..)

No problem, just go and get a proper medical degree first.

Pay them with the memory of money.

Am I the only one who find this ironic? Surely believers can survive on food in homeopathic doses?

Surely the irony is in “allow use of allopathic medicines by homoeopathic doctors”.

The proverbial smell of an oily rag.

Their weight will blow out and they will get obese doing that shit. Next they’ll be claiming Xenical and water under HBF.

Well yes thanks.

I was going to go on and on about how western culture so easily accepted some eastern traditions and forgot to write them up as the first reference of data.

But I won’t bother now…
