In 2011, Ramesh Babu Nimma, 32, a resident of Dadar, who works as an electrician, started experiencing terrible cough. He was started on five medicines daily for six months, but with repeated bouts of vomiting, he gave up. At one point, I had accepted that I was going to die as I had stopped taking medicines altogether,” Nimma said. For the next four months, Nimma went to his village in Telangana to try Ayurvedic medicines. The treatment was now going to last for two years, where he had to take around 15 medicines daily.
