Patanjali Ayurved, along with its CEO Acharya Balkrishna, has issued an apology before the Supreme Court regarding misleading advertisements and criticism of modern medicine. This apology follows the Supreme Court’s directive for Patanjali Ayurved and Acharya Balakrishna to personally appear before the court and address contempt proceedings initiated against them.
“Inadvertently, the advertisement in question, which was intended to contain only general statements, included the offending sentences… On behalf of Patanjali Ayurved, I offer an unqualified apology to this Court for breaching the statement recorded in the order of November 21, 2023. I assure the Court that such advertisements will not be issued in the future,” stated Balkrishna in his affidavit.
