C: 2003 Punjab And Haryana Court Judgment
D: 2003 Delhi High Court Judgment

The answer is: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A: 2003 Kerala High Court Judgment.

In February 2021, the Supreme Court of India upheld the 2003 judgment of the Kerala High Court that stated that individuals who do not fulfill the prescribed qualifications and are not duly registered under the relevant statute cannot be permitted to practice as Paramparya Vaidyas.

Paramparya Vaidyas are traditional practitioners of Ayurvedic medicine who practice a form of medicine that is passed down through families and communities. In the 2003 case, the Kerala High Court had ruled that only individuals who have received proper training and certification from recognized institutions can be registered as traditional practitioners and allowed to practice legally.

The Supreme Court's decision to uphold this judgment reinforces the importance of proper training and certification for traditional practitioners of Ayurvedic medicine, in order to ensure the safety and effectiveness of their treatments.
