The ban on Yogrishi Baba Ramdev’s ‘Coronil’ medicine has been lifted

New Delhi – The Honourable Supreme Court of India has lifted the ban on Yogrishi Baba Ramdev’s ‘Coronil’ medicine, a product of Patanjali Yogpeeth. The ban was imposed by the Madras High Court. The Apex Court had quashed the petition which was filed in this regard.

CJI SA Bobde: In this pandemic if we prevent the use of word coronil because there is a pesticide registered in its name, it will be terrible.

Chennai based ‘Arudra Engineering Private Limited’ has filed a petition against Patanjali Yogpeeth in the Madras High Court. The petitioner has said that, since 1993, the trade mark Coronil has been registered in their name. Hence the Madras High Court had imposed a ban on the sale of ‘Coronil’. Patanjali challenged the petitioner in the Supreme Court.
