Navjot Kaur Sidhu & Navjot Singh Sidhu

CCS has sent the notice to Navjot Kaur Sidhu, in which she has been asked to give clarification on her claims within 40 days.


CCS Convener Dr Kuldeep Solanki said, "Such false claims are confusing people and making them think negatively about allopathic medicine and therapy. Even cancer patients are being forced to stop taking medication, increasing the risk for them. The notice also said that if Sidhu does not apologise for his statement or present scientifically proven documents within seven days, he will approach the court."
