What a terrible joke of playing with human life through prescribing highly toxic drugs in overdose without having any knowledge about the dangerous aftermath of drug prescription?

Recently ratified law that the Homepoathic and Ayurvedic Doctors can prescribe Allopathic medicine is a very dangerous licence to play with the fire.
