Govt clarifies its 'no meat, no sex during pregnancy' advice
After facing criticism over AYUSH Ministry's booklet asking pregnant women to abstain from sex and meat, the government issued a clarification saying, "This was just a suggestion, not a prescription". Director in-charge of Central Council for Research in Yoga and Naturopathy, Dr Ishwara Acharya said, "Non-veg should be avoided during pregnancy. Never wrote sex must be avoided."
