Delhi High Court Dismisses Plea To Analyse Electro Homeopathic Prescriptions For Recognition As Alternative Medicine

The Delhi High Court dismissed a petition seeking recognition of electro-homeopathy as an alternative medicine system, emphasizing that only Parliament can recognize such systems under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act. The court highlighted the lack of legislative backing for electro-homeopathy despite its practice, stressing the need for legal framework adherence. It concluded that while such treatments are used, they lack statutory recognition necessary for legal sanction. This decision underscores the regulatory gap between traditional and recognized medical systems in India.
