Reportedly, reacting to Sidhu's statement, CCS convenor Dr Kuldeep Solanki said, "False claims like this are confusing people and making them think negatively about allopathic medicine and therapy. Even cancer patients are being forced to stop taking their medication, which has raised their danger of dying."
