Yoga teacher Ramdev's remedy for infertility is allegedly being sold by some of his pharmacies as medicine that can guarantee the birth of a boy.
"Divya Putrajeevak Seed", sold in Patanjali Pharmacies, a chain of shops owned by Ramdev, is described in catalogues as a natural herb for treatment of infertility.
It does not promise a male child, but the name is misleading, allege doctors who point out that "Putrajeevak" means "son's life."
Some Ramdev stores claim that the medicine, available for Rs. 35 a packet, helps ensure that a boy is born. The claim is not supported by the text on the packs, but even then, many customers allegedly come to buy the drug with the hope for a boy.
