Employment
It has been reported that homeopathic doctors are facing an unemployment problem. In 2017, the students' union stated that the Assam Public Service Commission has not appointed even one medical officer since the BHMS began in the mid-90s. A rising number of people in India are preferring to use homeopathic medicines over conventional medicines, despite there being no good evidence that it works. Most homeopathic doctors open private clinics or work in a multi-speciality chain of homeopathic clinics.
Criticism
Homeopathy is a pseudoscience and its remedies are no more effective than placebos.
