Book misleading ad givers and newspapers

See attached herbals remedy selller from kerala claiming to make Delhi NCR breathe easier. Please penalise them for atleast 10 lakh CCPA/consumer affairs department. Every week we see misleading ads. Also penalise the newspapers who take these ads. Why is the editor of newspapers or commercial head not reviewing an ad in light of advertising code before accepting?? more

Today's TOI - Delhi Edition carries a two page Ad of some Bhagwan - Birsa Munda. I guess he is some icon for the Jharkhand tribals as his image has bow and arrow. The Ad has picture of Jharkhand CM: Soren(Jr.) & President Draupadi Murmu & PM. These Ad's by Politicians is to try and win sympathies of the people of Jharkhand & not that they have any faith or belief in the God or God Men. more  
Can't call it misleading. If you go to the see the ad, the disclosures are full. There is a QR code, the website, doctor's contact number, clinical trials details, science involved in the pathology, and then the ingredients too. The advertisement educates the reader about the physiological effects of pollution. There are several hyperlinks to various related health concerns and their respective natural remedies, scientifically detailed. Can't see anything wrong. more  
नियंत्रण न तो विज्ञापन पर न ही भरस्टाचार पर न ही अपराध पर - गुमराह करने वाले विज्ञापनो के आधार पर ही हमारा देश चल रहा है और कोई सुनवायी कभी कही नहीं होती है - पूरे जीवन की कमायी को दांव पर लगा सेवानिब्रित होने के बाद विज्ञापन, जो अभिताभ बच्चन द्वारा किया गया, के आधार पर सहारा स्टेट्स से भवन क्रय किया पर बिल्डर ने विज्ञापन में दर्शाए गए सुविधा नहीं प्रदान किए जिस पर हर स्तर पर यानी CM,न्यायपालिका इत्यादि को रिपोर्ट किया गया पर कुछ नहीं हुआ बल्कि स्थानीय प्रशाशन ने हम लोगों को ही समझाया की आप कपड़ा ख़रीदते तो देख कर ख़रीदते है तो भवन क्रय करने से पूर्व देखना चाहिए था आपको - यानी दोषी हम क्यूँकि उनके अनुसार विज्ञापन तो बढ़ा-चढ़ा कर ही दिया जाता है more  
First of all advertisement authority should clearly mention that any advt which misleads people without facts should be penalised and it should be high with even prison so that people will not be taken for a ride. more  
This medication perhaps facilitates smooth breathing in people getting breathlessness and is approved by appropriate authority. The advertisement claiming entire Delhi will breath easy is hyperbole and is certainly an overstatement. But Delhi, not being a single unit for that purpose, it is also improper to exaggerate that it’s misleading Delhi. I feel that this isn’t a suitable case for penal action. more
