The Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH) has asked all its state councils in the country to cancel registration of homoeopaths who practise allopathy.

"The CCH had issued a notice stating that Homoeopathic Practitioners (Professional Conduct, Etiquette and Code of Ethics) Regulations, 1982, have been amended as notified in the official gazette dated July 12, 2014, which is required to be strictly adhered to by all registered practitioners under HCC Act of 1973," CCH President Dr Ramjee Singh said here on Monday on the sidelines of a national seminar on homoeopathy held in the city.

The CCH has also issued a notice to its registered practitioners asking them to practice homoeopathy and use drugs prepared as per homoeopathic principles, he said.

CCH is a statutory apex body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Department of AYUSH (Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy).

Singh also said that CCH teams will conduct surprise visits at all 188 homoeopathy medical colleges in the country before giving them accreditation for next academic year beginning from June 2015.

This is a part of an annual exercise of inspection before giving accreditation letters to the colleges.
