The State of Gujarat vs Bhagvanji Tulsidas Karia Advocate - A D SURANI, J B RATHOD, J B RATHODB B LAKHANI, — 250/2025

Case Summary: FIR 250/2025 Court Decision: The accused, Bhagvanji Tulsidas Karia, was acquitted and discharged of charges under IPC Section 336 and Gujarat Medical Practitioners Act 1963 Section 30 due to insufficient evidence. The prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused practiced medicine without proper qualifications. Key Reasoning: Despite seizing medicines and equipment worth ₹1,00,808 from the accused's residence, the court found critical evidentiary gaps—no patient testimony of unlicensed treatment, inconsistent witness statements (including contradictions by prosecution witnesses under cross-examination), absence of documented evidence of actual medical practice, and no proof the accused lacked proper credentials to practice Ayurvedic medicine.
