Sri Lanka Cricket accepted 300,000 dollars (Rs 30 million) from an Indian company pharmaceutical company producing the controversial drug called Musli Power Xtra which has been branded a sex promoting drug.
To defend itself Sri Lanka Cricket called it a “health product”.
According to the Hindu newspaper, the states of Kerala and Andhra Pradesh have come into focus for selling and advertising the drug with a reference to the Drug and Magic Remedies Act.
According to the Hindu the advertisements promoting the Musli Power drug were dubbed as “deceptive” and making the public get carried away by such enticements. They have called on advertisers to refrain from placing such advertisements.
