"Does the pharma industry have permanent treatment for thyroid, arthritis, colitis and asthma?" he asked.
Ramdev went on to ask if allopathy had medicines for fatty liver and liver cirrhosis. "Like you found a cure for TB and chicken pox, look for treatments for liver ailments. After All, allopathy is now 200 years old."
"Does the pharma industry have treatment for migraine?", or treatment for constipation and bloating amnesia without any side effects, he said.
He also claimed that the doctors must not fall ill at all if allopathy is all powerful and 'sarvagun sampanna' (having all good qualities).

"Hon'ble Minister, I have received your letter. I withdraw my statement, putting to rest the controversy over various medical practices... (jee aapaka patr praapt hua, usake sandarbh mein chikitsa paddatiyon ke sangharsh ke is poore vivaad ko khedapoorvak viraam dete hue main apana vaktavy vaapis leta hoon)," he tweeted from his personal Twitter handle.
