In two separate incidents, the Palghar police booked two doctors for selling fake antidotes which they claimed would help cure coronavirus. According to the police, one of the accused identified as Subhashchandra Yadav, 39, was selling the drugs for Rs 100 per dose outside his clinic in Nalasopara.  

He also hung a hoarding outside his clinic which read that the drugs were available for that amount. The incident came to light when the locals complained to the police saying the doctor was advising people to consume three doses in a day. The police then reached the spot and conducted a search.
