I adviced govt to devlop homoeopathy with its spritual preance.
After NDA came to power, Homeopathy system is in great lime-light and getting great encouragement and support. Homeopathy is very benign, affordable, effective and has no side-effects whatsoever, even if it is taken overdose, easy to take by just born babies to 100 years old. Hence by giving more propaganda and promoting it , govt doing great job of human service.
