Abstract
We describe the facts of the matter and the court's decision in a case of an Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy (AYUSH) doctor being found guilty of deficiency of service by prescribing allopathic medicines that were associated with known complications. The case details include the allegation, the defense, and the court's judgement. Details of the concerned acts, circulars, and regulations, as well as court case laws, are described. The regulations allow AYUSH doctors to prescribe allopathic medicines under certain circumstances, which were not adhered to in this case.
