Marijuana is Ayurvedic Medicine

Following the world wide trend of sensible drug policy reform outside of the US, Sri Lanka is latest country to embrace the beneficial aspects of cannabis and intends to legalize it.

Indigenous Medicine Minister Tissa Karaliyadde said he hoped to introduce a bill in parliament to allow practitioners of herbal medicine known as ayurveda to grow at least five plants each.

Further, although cannabis is said to be, "easily available on the clandestine market both for traditional healers and smokers," the Sri Lankan government has already set aside its own land for legal cultivation.

So when are our own political leaders going to wake up to the public's acceptance of this plant?
